Friday Happy Hour Video: Whatever happened to these animated computer-voice thingies?

02.02.2018 by David Murray // 1 Comment

Writing Boots has been around since 2008, but we didn't start the Friday Happy Hour Video until 2010. (It was a labor-concession to our head writer, who preferred to nurse hangovers on Friday mornings.)

I like looking back at the videos we chose then, because YouTube was still sort of new, and lots of experimentation was going on—including lots of videos in the style of this video, which made the Friday Happy Hour Video back in December of 2010.

    Ah Xtranormal – it used to be free to use it to make, uh, things like this, but that was the old media model. http://www.xtranormal.com/
