Knowing the world better [Archive] - Alizée America Forum

I thought it would be nice if we could get to know the rest of the world better. We've had a thread where we post up pictures of each others' cities but this time, I was thinking maybe a video instead (spurred by the video to Alizée).

I've recently developed a keen interest in the different cultures, lifestyles etc of all foreign countries. We've got people from everywhere. The "Where you're from" thread will agree. And I'd love to get a short video of many people's country.

I was thinking to film anything really... Your commute to school/work, the school/workplace itself, nature, your CBD, anything. This sort of day-to-day stuff will give us more of an idea than key tourist attractions. I'm not saying to film your day-to-day life as I probably put it... No need to go into family, jobs IF one doesn't want to. Basically anything would satisfy me :) - Be it a 10 second snippet to a half an hour movie.

Am I hoping for too much? Will people take part in this? I plan to start filming crap (and really, just the things I've thought about filming is really crap!) tomorrow so hopefully, I'll have some footage up in a week or so for anyone who's interested to Good 'Ole Sydney Australia :D

All in all, it's just a little thing that may be fun to watch :D

hmm sounds like an interesting idea. i was actually filming my commute to work the other day while listenin to Alizee. i dunno why, i just had my camera with me at the moment, and decided to record. i was listening to Hey! Amigo if i remember correctly, and you can hear me in the background singing along to it..lol. i'll see what i can do to take part in this.

It's not completely pointless :rolleyes: It proves you can be in a good mood even at 4am, just by listening to Alizée.
Or are you always in a good mood at that time of the day :blink:

I don't get up "that" early every day, but early enough. She does help one wake up, especially if you have her cd in yur alarm clock.

Were you holding the camera with one arm and driving with the other?

I thought about recording part of my trip to school, but flipping my truck off of the freeway at 90 mph doesn't sound very appealing.

:blink: yeah i was holding the cam with one hand and driving with the other. word of advice: dont ever drive a stick shift, since you dont know how to drive with one hand :p

haha, I can drive a stick fine, thankyouverymuch, it's the recording where trouble arises

my post could be better rephrased as, "how many of you want to see an 8 minute video of my horrible singing while filming my floorboards?"

Yeah, I was singing along with Lili tonight in the car and just about "busted a vocal chord" (I'm sure NYMedStudent or one of our other pre-meds will correct me on that terminology; I got this faint but sharp pain on the left side of my throat) belting out C'est trop tard En Concert as loud as I could. Man I love that song (and the en concert version many times over the studio version)! As much as I adore the cute/sexy/beautiful/happy Alizée, she does need just one or two more angry-type songs like C'est trop tard. :cool:
