he's even used some of the track in the bg
ive always followed chui's work and this is pretty similar, i mean i wouldnt call the internetz police but anyone in the industry will be reminded of chuis stuff when they watch this...a little too much imo- exactly, too similar. I know your a rob chui fan, i can tell by your vimeo :) thankfully your not ripping him though!Hombre_Lobo

Rob Chui could say to Daniel Soderberg "hey, you ripped my work..."... but then Michael Bay could chime in and say "hey, you both ripped me..."... and then all the bystanders w/a plethora of taste could feel good about themselves knowing that it was all shit from the start

I get what you're saying hombre but it's a bit like saying everything Build has ever done is a rip of Wim Crouwel. Kind of true on some level but also a bit ridiculous.

People have different definitions of a rip and a homage...
But I'd guess Soderberg had seen Chui's vid and thought "That's cool, just needs my name on it".

this style really brings you back to the golden days of IDM

IMO, they are different enough (sans editing style/colour treatment/subject, which are also all fairly common themes) to have been put together without either individual person being aware of the other creating their work.

homage?
- Hombre_Lobo0
They have the same audio, same style, same editing, almost identical shots. What more does he have to do, to make it a rip? does it need the same title?
I'm amazed how no one else sees it. If this how cavalier designers are about rips, I'm not surprised people get away with it.

"What research did i do?"
Well i spent about 6 months on mars, in a self containing unit learning everything there is to know about the motion graphics industry...o no wait i didn't, the research that i did was watch both videos, radical approach eh."Was a discussion out of the question?"
Of course not, you tell me how they differ."Did you really find one so compelling and original the thought of influence, homage"
influence? homage? your joking right? its identical. There's nothing wrong with trying to replicate a style to learn the process and technical side of it, but at least give credit to the original creative.- Is there water on mars?ernexbcn
- no. just lots and lots of delicious tomato soup!! You can come visit.Hombre_Lobo
- do you like tomato soup?Hombre_Lobo

Hombre_Lobo,
Why did you come out of the gate screaming RIP? Even when others disagreed, you only chose to berate them for not agreeing with you and seeing things your way. Was a discussion out of the question? What research had you done? Did you really find one so compelling and original the thought of influence, homage, or simply an experimental video of similar concept was out of the question? Why choose the low road of guilt before proven innocent?

I gotta say I'm with the rest of these arseholes lobo. It's not a rip in my opinion. It's a use of the same style, bit different I'd say.

- but what about our mistletoe bonanza??? :/Hombre_Lobo

I don't know guys.
0:00 in the Chui version is exactly the same as 0:00 in the Soderberg version.
I just hope nobody else starts a video in black.

So should he move on and then get off his horse? Or allow the horse to move him on and then get off?
- that made sense. derp*set
- Staying on the horse whilst it's moving on would be a far quicker way to get where he's going.Continuity
- ha, thanks for the tips fellas! But I ain't ever getting off this horse! Its a fine stallion.Hombre_Lobo

Obviously heavily influenced, both pieces are pretty generic and uninspiring (possibly the worst on both portfolios). The Ronin's concept/footage/grading/editing is so superior that there's really no comparison to be made.
Original music by HECQ on both? assuming that's not bullshit on (Daniel Soderberg's part) I'd let it lie. Flaming someone for getting praise for creating original work in a style that someone else does better? ridiculous fan boy territory, no?
- Flaming someone for creating original work? theres nothing original about it you moron!Hombre_Lobo
