Survival

February 19, 2011

This video was one of the videos from thte PSY DVD. It was composed of mostly old footage, but a good amount of new footage as well. (This footage is mainly from the 2000 and 2001 era.) I’m not sure why the song choice is the same as another video I did. I do remember it being intentional, but I can no longer remember the reasoning behind it. Lots of footage was collected from 2000 Nationals, with others being sent in as part of the “PSY” project.

A hastily thrown together video of MoYo 2010. Sorry guys, but I don’t have as much time as I’d like to put together a proper clip vid for MoYo, so I threw this together in a couple hours. It was also an excuse for me to play around with some extreme contrast and color saturation.

2000 Revolutions

December 7, 2009

The year 2000 was one of yoyoing’s strongest years. 1998 and 1999 created the craze, and in 2000 the bar was raised. Everyone brought their A-game. Everyone who started with the boom now had over 2 years of practice, and string tricks continued to push forward. This video is a look back at the innovation that exploded around the turn of the century.

New Adventures in Lo-Fi

September 14, 2009
a yo-yo trick video by ed haponik and pals.

i tried to come up with new tricks (or new takes on old ones) that were constructed ‘simply’. tricks that don’t go on forever, and tend to base themselves around one main idea. later on, at tn states, i asked some friends to give me a trick that conformed to those parameters. and i had a lot of fun.

music by eddie vedder and keyboard and banjo (- banjo)… who, from what i read in ‘hit parader’ are touring together this winter.

i used my spyy flying v.

Exit 2001

January 2, 2002

2001 was a huge year for yoyoing. Trick innovation continued to push forward, and new styles such as slack, and chopsticks, started emerging.

I had filmed most of the year so I didn’t have much unseen footage around to make a new video. But I knew the year was important enough that something needed to be shown.

Exit 2001 was a bigger hit than I expected it to be. I didn’t expect many people to like it simply because there wasn’t much new footage. With most of my videos, I wanted my audience to be impressed and blown away by new footage. With this one, I wanted them to sit back and reflect on the last year of yoyoing. The reduced speed and color-fade helped accomplish that.

With this video, 2001 came to a close and 2002 was ushered in.
