I was looking through folders of old pictures, and ever so often one of these clips would appear: a video clip made when I gave my camera to someone and they didn't realize they were shooting a clip instead of taking a picture.

I've never thought much of them, but now that they're a few years old, they've become interesting. Little flashes into moments I've forgotten.

This one: I was posing with my parents after graduating from Wake Forest.

There needs to be a name for this type of clip!

I agree. I like the idea of uploading these rather than forgetting about them.

How about "fauxtograph", faux being French for false, y'see? Sorry if I'm being patronising by explaining that, I just wanted to make sure it was understood.

The only problem with that word is that it sounds the same as photograph when you say it out loud, so it can only make sense when written down. Although I spose you could trick people by saying "Hey guys, get in - I'm going to take a fauxtograph" and they would be none the wiser! And you would have the last laugh, hahaha.

si, we could just make sure to pronounce "fauxtograph" with a french accent in order to tell the difference.

I think I have one of these somewhere. "Snapshot," maybe.

I always accidentally do that. I probably have a dozen.

i just called them "scraps". i used to collect them on my website, but then vidbits came along (remember?!) and then vimeo.

I nominate "Oshe."

Because they usually have the person taking the picture saying "Oh Shit" but the person gets cut off because he realizes he's making a video and presses the record button again to stop.
Zach Klein 4 years ago

Haha, I second.

you heard it here first, folks.
Amir Blumenfeld coins the "Oshe" terminology, NOT Miles Davis:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oshe
dalas verdugo 4 years ago

those dudes are in Rochester. they're the kind of guys where you can just go to their house and have a jam session with them. lots of fun. and Oshe is the name of their band, i don't think Miles Davis made it up.
Jake Lodwick 4 years ago

Haha, what a coincidence. I technically lived in the same house as one of the guys from Oshe for a summer.

Now, was that Tails who mistakenly put it on video mode instead of camera mode?
dalas verdugo 4 years ago

i went ahead and started tagging these "fauxtograph" since someone else started that tag on another clip.
Zach Klein 4 years ago

OK, cool.

A slice of time. Hold onto it.
