Clips - Houdini and Blaine?

[StevenLevitt]

I need short video clips of these two, just using for my education... Anyone know where I can download them from? Any help is appreciated.

YouTube has a fair amount of them. You can convert the files and download them if they are legal to download and not copyrighted.

I think copyright is not an issue with private education, is there not an easier way?

 

[ManningMagic]

if you google a program called "handbrake" and download it

then find the clip(on youtube), and bring up the current activity box(control+ option+ A (at least on a mac))

then click the largest file(usually a few MB)

DOwnload that file to the desktop

open handbrake and open the file

it should make it into a video, follow the directions....

check the legality of it if you are using it for purposes other than private or one time educational

Can I download them? - They need to be easy to download, just so I can place it into my powerpoint.

I'm not sure I haven't tried. But I guess you could use Handbrake like ManningMagic on this instead of Youtube

Just grab them with a YouTube Grabber, then convert them from .flv to .wmv or whatever.

Rocketboom actually does a brief comparison shot of David and Houdini, while DB is hanging upside down at Central Park, talking about the stunt.. I know it's not a magic segment, but it's a nice visual of the two

p.s. JB has a cameo at 1:24
