This shit pisses me off.
Some douche blatantly copies a vid by Rob Chui (aka http://theronin.co.uk), whacks it on vimeo, and in true rip off fashion doesn't even mention Rob chui. On top of that he gets lots of positive comments for something he had no creative input in whatsoever.
Even the audio bites are the same. No wonder he disabled comments on vimeo, i was about to comment and expose that mofo.
Rob chui (original) -
http://theronin.co.uk/Motion/?OF…Some douche (Daniel Soderberg) -
Maybe i should start spamming his name followed by 'rip' and 'copies work' etc in the hope that google will expose him.

i do not see similarities other than music selection.. and sf is not comparable to nyc even though the sf kids will all cry and say it is.
not a rip.. move on lobo.

It's just a more modern glitchy version of the old NYPD blue titles:
Get off your horse.
- inteliboy0
pretty generic video treatment... not sure who is ripping who on that style these days...
- brandelec0

looks like any other tony scott opening sequence

Get off my horse?
Move on lobo?You taking the piss? Come the fuck on people, its a blatant rip. Its like same fucking video, you can cut from one to the other and not even notice.

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

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*********
- 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
- that made sense. derp*

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.

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.
*slaps horse arse
- arseholes? you expanding your vocabulary from cunt? :D
no christmas card for you set.Hombre_Lobo - fuck christmas.********

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?

^registe
"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

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.

homage?

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.

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

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".

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.
