"I never laugh until I've had my coffee." - Clark Gable
I do not function without my caffeine. On a whim I thought I would throw together a little homage to my machine and my favorite tasty beverage.
Truth be known, while it looks pretty decent this was quite honestly the single worst cup of coffee I have had in my entire life. I am however happy to report that the one I made after I was done filming was nothing less than exquisite. ;)

Thanks for the compliment.
Well glad ya liked my vid anyway!!!

Maybe just the end text could look more like the start text or something?
The only way is UP :-)
Liked the large yellowish translucent text at the beginning but for me the (more?) opaque solid large brownish text at the end seemed out of keeping with the sophistication established (extremely well) by everything up till then. Just nagged me somehow.
To my eyes, perhaps just some greater translucency would help or the same yellow as at the start. Possibly some FX on the text itself (letter shapes) such as feathered edges or texture or motion inside (or is that OTT). Not sure - but I'd know it when I saw it!
Anyhow I learned a lot from your vid and also need to hear some more John Coltrane!

In particular it's the Soft Contrast with the Vignette tweaked and set to blur.
Hope that helps!

Thanks!
Whats this corporate coffee sucks thing?
We have a Nesspresso at work and it makes constant great coffee of your choice. freshly ground blends that are vacuum sealed in tinfoil colour coded tablets. Pop a tab in the machine and it peirces both sides with micro holes and forces water through.
The milk is in a hopper thats steam injected while its dispensed. Great coffee every time.
I would have that machine any day than my Seco gran- crema deluxe. Mind you, They both sound like malfunctioning fish tank pumps while working.
Hate that!
Edit: just relised that corporate coffee means the overpriced franchised coffee houses that dot the planet. yes?
i was gurning just looking at that oozing caffeine.
i need to buy some more beans! tea is no substitute!
whoops, i didnt say that.

My heart speeds up just lookin' at it!
And sorry, but nuttin can get me away from Illy.
I know the Illy is good, but I use it as my backup coffee when I forget to order the Extrabar from Pasquini's web site. Believe me when I say it rocks!!
