Ah HA! See?! All of you who pissed on our giving away a copy of Office 2008, look how creative you can be with Word if only you put your mind to it!

This video for “Again & Again” by the Bird & the Bee was made by filmmaker Dennis Liu using only the Leopard interface and Mac OS X applications â€“ and as a sometimes editor, I find this to be a very impressive display of some insane editorial skills.

wow that was amazing is that the official video?

Ok i love this music video. Its innovative, refreshing and new (thumbs up)

The song itself is repetitive and annoying (The singer has a nice voice tho which is a shame) And is uber cute too.

I watched this video several times. The second and third time with the volume turned down ;p

The girl in the video is not the actual singer. The real song is by The Bird and the Bee, here’s the video:

That was very cool! The little dancing help computer was great. Well done! Quick! Somebody do something cool like that with Pages!

Do, looks like it’s Tiger’s interface and not Leopard’s . Anyway, nice

It’s the Leopard interface … did you miss the Stacks feature?

Actually, and interestingly, she switches from Tiger to Leopard at about 0:58.

Someone else who uses grow/shrink instead of the silly genie effect.

And yeah, she’s really cute.

at 0.58 if you look at the menu bar you can see he is using tiger and leopard at the same time :O.

I don’t know what they mean by ‘guitar’ at about 00:27. It’s a synth.

I can see how using screen grab a few billion times will get most of these images, especially the text (great work). But what OS X application let’s you record screen movement? Is this part of the Leopard iChat?

Of course, if this is made with iChat, you can “just” do all the graphics in natural time and then edit the bejeezus out of it in iMovie to tighten up the changes.

Spectacular.
