Bloody bonkers. Well done. How did you do the mouth thing? Only (-) comment and no biggie, 2 mins is better than 5
But great idea and BTW I love this blog layout. The double column on the homepage is cool. How did you come up with that?
Thanks Derrick :>

Hey Tim,
Thanks for your comments - yeah. Agree with ya on the time thing
got a bit carried away impersonating Alex 
hehe. .
About the mouth thing. basically. . just found a photo of Alex Jeffreys, and used photoshop to cut out his mouth (using some feathering as well so it blends in with my skin :). . then recorded me talking with the camera shooting mostly just my mouth. . I then positioned my mouth behind alex’s photo and WALAH! after a bit of moving my mouth around and resizing, it fit in. Although you have to be very still when you talk, as you may have noticed my nose sneaked into shot a couple of times
Thanks re: blog layout. . been researching for quite a while, and there’s still lots to do in refining it. . basically I’ve managed to do the double column by buying a professional wordpress theme from woothemes - they have about 21 themes available at the moment and four of them are free - check out my post on my review of the 3 pro wordpress themes here
All the best!
Derrick
ps I also noticed that you haven’t got your gravatar - you should as it makes your comments stand out more - I also have some videos here to show you how to set up your gravatar

Awesome Derrick,
You ‘kiiled’ it! I love it.
It is though bloody scary to watch ‘Alex’ on the video!
Funny stuff, but with good content.
I don’t even have a clue how to attempt anything like that., have not messed with video at all.
PS, stop by my blog and get your blog listed in my custom search engine.

Hey Derrick.
Great video and great idea.
Not sure about the accent for a Welshman though…but I am sure AJ won’t mind.
HOpe you go well..

Hey Paul,
Good point, to be honest It didn’t even occur to me he had a welsh accent, I just thought British / UK accent. .
but thanks for the pointer ;). . going to study up welsh accent now. . ..

Hi Derrick
Great video, I just put mine up within the last hour. It’s, well lets say a little bit different. Out videos have something in common. We both used the same picture of Alex in the frog hat. See if you can see it in my video.
Talk to you later

Hey, Derrick. Loved the video, man. It’s very creative. I liked the can of the energy drink. It’s funny because only the people who know Alex will understand why that’s funny.
Your doing a great job! Keep it up. I gotta start hanging around your blog some more.

Great stuff Derrick. Have you been to Welsh acsent training school or something? A tag long, but got me interested!
admin
19. Jan, 2009
Hey thanks, Yeah. . agree. there were many other things I wanted to do to enhance it, but in the interests of time and not submitting to my perfectionist ways. . I decided to just get it out there and work on other projects. . but making the video as short as possible will definitely be my priority next time :). .

If ever you get fed up with internet marketing you;ll have to go into video production. You’re a natural.
It was very creative and funny.

Hi Derrick
Nice video, very creative and informative. I’m sure there would of been more giggles out of me if I understood some of the internal jokes about Jeffreys.
Well done mate.
