New Year's Eve Countdown Video's

dj vmb 3:01 AM - 11 December, 2010
Any suggestions on different video pools selling any good NYE countdown videos? Wasn't really feeling the SH countdown video. A little bland.
PopRoXxX 3:13 PM - 13 December, 2010
They usually post em up on ALL the different pools :)
djpuma_gemini 4:14 PM - 13 December, 2010
Everyone is working on em right now. Just gotta get posted up. You'll probably see more in the next week or so, or 1.5 weeks.
ta2423 1:14 AM - 14 December, 2010
lol...like a day or two before n.y.e.
djbigboy 1:49 AM - 14 December, 2010
Last year I got mine early and totally wish'd i had waited. This year, I won't make my decision until 12/31.
djpuma_gemini 2:36 AM - 14 December, 2010
^yup, wait until the end.
SiRocket 5:37 AM - 15 December, 2010

AWESOME!
djbigboy 6:08 PM - 21 December, 2010
i dont think Akon is falling off at all, if anything he's getting more mainstream. You know this will be on SNL. I think this shows he has a personality and sense of humor
Joshua Carl 9:21 PM - 21 December, 2010
I know eloy's dropping his on StrictlyHits tonight or Tomorrow.

I dont think were gonna see the 10+ versions we saw last year

I never knew a underground Akon (lol). I don't think he's falling off at all either. If I had T-Pain and Lady Gaga under my belt, I wouldn't be pushing albums out every year either..
DJ B.E.Z. 5:24 AM - 22 December, 2010
i meant to quote the one below awesome!!!! sorry guys...
DJSi UK 7:32 PM - 22 December, 2010
So back to the the title, where can we get some new years eve countdown videos?

:P
ta2423 8:12 PM - 22 December, 2010

djpuma_gemini 4:33 AM - 23 December, 2010
Recycle last years edits and drop bep's the time track afterward.

Done and it's freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
ta2423 6:19 AM - 23 December, 2010
yeah they are smoking crack with that price... Maybe they are short on xmas funds. Im sure if it doesnt move they will lower it.

Not TOTALLY happy with it. I'm still a young editor. Any criticism would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
Sticky K 10:44 AM - 29 December, 2010
1> The dudes voice in the beginning is a bit redundant. I would remove some of it...
2> Fatman scoop's "Happy New Year" gets chopped off.
3> The song after fatman scoop is boring...

otherwise I like the video footage :)

Xtendamix just put up a nice 1.
DJEyecon 6:02 PM - 29 December, 2010
Thank you sir. The Fat Man Scoop part is what I'm not happy with. In the countdown video from last year, which is where I got that, as soon as he says "year" there is an air raid siren. I tried to get the best balance possible. haha. Thanks for the critique!

Dj Bacik 12:33 AM - 17 November, 2011
Being a dreamer I always thought about how cool it would be if there was a way to put a countdown clock in corner during the night. Im sure there is a way to write something that would countdown exactly and then overlay it on top of serato on screen 2. I just don't have the time to write such an app.
Dj Nyce 12:46 PM - 17 November, 2011
it can be done in qc, but you will need to use it as an overlay.

another way would be use some sort desktop widget and drag it over the output window. i think it would have to have a parameter of 'always on top' tho.
Dj Bacik 10:35 PM - 20 December, 2011
Need to revive this thread as I keep looking for a countdown vid and don't seem to find any. Anyone wanna help out and link to some countdown vids for this year? The one mentioned before looks like it crams a nights worth of bangers and drops into 5 minutes for a very expensive amount.

Let me tell you my own experience with nyecountdown.com.
I just recently checked them out and decided to give a try. First off the customer service is great so even if u have any concerns or questions you'll get a prompt answer. Secondly the video itself is great, catchy, and they customize it for you. If u got a logo they can included in the video. It will keep your audience entertained for the duration and its got good graphics. I dont belong to this site AT ALL, i'm just really satisfied with the product.
DJDoubleXL 3:57 AM - 21 December, 2011
I've got a few up for pretty cheap. www.djdoublexl.com ...I've got one you can add your logo to which is a bit pricier, but if guys like to brand themselves/their club, it could be worth it.

and mixed into Party Rock Anthem.
Rebelguy 7:29 PM - 1 January, 2012
I ended up just making a Frankenstein mixture of video footage with my own audio. Used the audio of Lil Jon "Are you ready for 2012" 3 min before midnight. Then into N----s in Paris with part of NYE video Xtenda put up. Edited to the Videohive clock around a minute before midnight. After that cut into Auld Syne Lang with a video clip from Trading Places talking on top. Eddie Murphy saying "Merry New Year" haha. After that it was a couple of different mixes of Party Rock Anthem chopped together.

I'll just be using the stock Xtendamix one, it's decent.

I've always put loads of effort into my countdowns in the past and come away feeling like I've wasted my time... NYE is always an anti-climax.

Bartender's Eve, NYD... That's where the action is!
