UPDATED July 24, 2010: The audio has been remastered by TJ Lipple from its original VERY QUIET levels.

I've wanted to make a video with Reggie for about six months; we finally made it happen last night. It couldn't have been a more pleasant experience -- I couldn't be happier with the end result.

Jakob, you should state that none of this was manipulated by editing. It's incredible!

The slow motion part is so good!!
Jake Lodwick 5 years ago

Yeah, really.

You can tell it's real because the camera zoom remains constant even when he goes back to normal speed.

Can you say...record deal? Push this out there and someone will sign him.

The image quality is so good!
Jake Lodwick 5 years ago

yeah, and just under 20 megs for a 5.5 minute video. wow.
eat a bug 5 years ago

How did you export it?
MARCELLE 5 years ago

the image quality is almos freakishly good.. like its almost too much.. woah.
dalas verdugo 5 years ago

looks like it's:
AAC, Stereo (L R), 44.100 kHz
H.264 Decoder, 400 x 300, Millions
29.97fps

These are pretty much the settings I recommend in my tutorial video, except he has changed the dimensions to 400 x 300, which are the native dimensions for the flash conversion.
Amir 5 years ago

I think I like this clip the most. More than other people. Is there a way I can connote that? Because as of now I just have the same "like it" button as everybody else, but I think I like it more than other people.
Jake Lodwick 5 years ago

That would be cool. Digg has something like that... I think it's called "My #1"
Amir 5 years ago

I was just joking, but we're really onto something here! I just wanted a button that stated I was the biggest fan of this clip.
Thommy Browne 5 years ago

^ Yep, it's called My #1. Once you click the my #1 it appears on your profile page before your digging history. I find this feature very useful.
soma 5 years ago

Nope sorry, I AM the biggest fan of this clip. I don't think that you other peeps get the pure unadulterated awsomeness of this video.
Paul McClintock 5 years ago

You obviously don't realize that this clip made me pregnant. I think I am the biggest fan.
A.J. Ferguson 2 years ago

this is my favorite reggie watts production to date. i wish he was going to be at bonnaroo this year like he was last year, but oh well, i hope he has a good time in Australia.
Thommy Browne 5 years ago

The ending is very clever. How many takes did you make?
Jake Lodwick 5 years ago

We recorded 3 different songs, this was the last one. But it's completely improvised so the idea of takes doesn't really apple.
Thommy Browne 5 years ago

I'm impressed that he did not slip up. Go Reggie!
Reggie Watts 5 years ago

Its not perfect but its a strong start! More soon me thinks!
Cody Nicewarner 2 years ago

this is 21st century skat and i love it. mad respect for both reggie and jake for pulling this together.
Buck Flashroy 5 years ago

Truely amazing. He has great hair too. He is very vocally agile!
DrPiranha 5 years ago

WOW!!!!!!!!!!! This guy was so awesome!!! I loved it! I think he and Kenny Muhammad The Human Orchestra would get along quite nicley together!

Killer Killer stuff, I'd like to see or hear more :).
Remyyy 5 years ago

Incroyable ! You too managed that as masters ! (the sound is a bit low, maybe only for me)
Andrea Allen 5 years ago

He's so talented!

I really liked the zooming at the beginning. It was so slight, that I didn't realize we were zooming until you had us right up in his face. A very impressive clip!
Reggie Watts 5 years ago

So much fun to do to too!

Redwood House of Music 5 years ago

Christ on a bike!!! that was amazing! I love the fact that there are people making stuff like this. The slowed down section was ingenious and so perfectly pulled off.
Well, i'm off to tell everyone about this clip now.

Genius. Essence of creativity and artistic skill. Just an amazing overall production.
David Marcus 5 years ago

Thanks Jon... why don't you blog about it.
andrea 5 years ago

wait, so he slowed himself down? Because I was going to ask how you got slow motion that didn't have degraded picture quality...so he did that himself?? If so, I say YIKES that's unbelievable! And apropos nothing, he has beautiful hands.
Lex Productions 5 years ago

Reminds me of bobby mcferrin, but with a funk and street spin on it. Bobby's style is more slow/relaxed jamming, where Reggie seems to be sending a strong energetic pulse through his beats.

It's like sunbathing on a beach vs. dune buggying through a desert

O-o-Oh my gawwwwd, this was dope!! totally amazing song, collaboration, whatever you wanna call it, and great filming too Jake. Nice lighting and sound...was it just the on-camera mic?

THIS IS WHY I NEED TO LIVE IN A PLACE LIKE NEW YORK!!!

*bangs head against table repeatedly
Jake Lodwick 5 years ago

We used two audio inputs: the on-camera mic, and a direct-to-camera XLR cable straight from the loop machine.

The sound quality will, I think, be higher in our next video.

the lighting in this movie is so beautiful! i really like this clip! can i have permission to air it on URTV if we give vimeo and Reggie Watts credit?
Jake Lodwick 5 years ago

Of course! Do you have a show on URTV?
Jelen! 5 years ago

not yet (i dont have the time to commit), but they're always looking for shorts to air in between stuff. URTV is super laid back.
dalas verdugo 5 years ago

Jake and I used to have a show on the RIT campus TV.
Jelen! 5 years ago
