When it comes to remixing media there are many ways you can do it. My personal favorite technique is that which was shown during class last week. This was in fact the RKO compilation. Now there have been numerous RKO videos popping up all over the web every day. For example this was just posted yesterday on WorldStar Hip Hop:

(For some reason wordpress will not let me embed a video from worldstarhiphop.com, thanks a lot wordpress. However, definitely worth following the link to.)
Now to many this might be the first time you have ever seen any form of remixing like this. Let me assure you that this is not the first time that this has been done This is simply the trending version right now. For example, just a little while back there were similar versions of these videos trending using the Street Warriors characters. Check it out:
Now sooner or later a newer version will pop up with another clever character at use. However, although the concept of these kinds of videos are all the same, I will never stop finding them hilarious and extremely entertaining. The way that these remixers have been able to include these perfectly synced animations of two dimensional characters into the real life fail videos is something that just a few years ago nobody would have known how to do. Through the expanded use of media in todays society I believe that we are only going to begin to see even more new and clever ways of remixing.
