Thread: MOOV Showcase Hour: Your Favorites

We are looking for your ideas for a MOOV Showcase Hour, which would cull together the best MOOV pieces of each month, so people will know where to find them.

We'd like to hear your suggestions of pieces people want to see.
Thanks,

All the Mars clips...

Mars clips are cool, but my favorite is TANK, not tank with music I prefer the fish tank sounds , (wife&kids thinks im nuts for watching it ) I find it very relaxing, picture is unbeleivable. kkep up the good work MOOV, and thanks for being apart of this forum Voom employees(Wilt, Dragonlady,stevegarfield& other anon. emp.).

Unfortunately, I haven't bothered to keep track of the titles of my favorites (why would I? - it wouldn't help me find out when it's on!), but here are a few from today that I've enjoyed:

Brain Stem
Radiant Eater
Random Integer
Lapels

I think putting together a block of viewer favorites is an excellent idea. However, I'd like to see you take it even further and put together more blocks that could be given titles more specific than "Video Art". Titles that would give us some sort of idea what type clips to expect.

Specifically, I'm thinking blocks of only CGI-screensaver-type-visuals, and other blocks showing street scenes or live subjects or landscapes or time-lapses or whatever the case may be.

I also think dividing the blocks by music genre would be a no-brainer - i.e., seperate blocks for techno, funk/disco, rock, classical, new age, etc. It would give the viewer a better chance of knowing if he may expect to see clips he enjoys when tuning in. I for one would definitely tune in to any program called, say, "Block-Rocking Beats" or "The Disco/Funk Screensaver Power Hour" or -ooh! - how 'bout "Five Point One: A Surround-Sound Exhibition" - I'll tune in for that one regardless of what the visuals are!

My point is that "Video Art" tells us nothing - no reason to make an "appointment" to watch. Just random luck. I think it would be relatively simple to do much better. "Favorites" is a good start, but please take it further. Perhaps you could start another thread asking us what type of clips we'd like to see blocked together into titled shows? There are some of us out here that love this channel, but think it could do so much better!

P.S. While Tank is great , please don't include it in the "Favorites". It already has its own block and is very easy to find. Hell, mooV is almost becoming the Tank channel as it is.

Almost forgot my favorite - the fireworks clip! Awesome. I'll watch as many of those as you can make!

MOOV ch. becoming TANK ch. good idea

Love Tank...think its a great idea. Especially the fish with the green in the background. That looks great.

The one with the lobsters made me hungry.
