Viacom's Video Mixer
B2Day blogs about a Viacom website that includes a useful video tool called Video Mixer. Video Mixer lets you mix clips from the N's shows, like Degrassi and O'Grady, with music and graphics.
It is dead-simple, but it gives you enough functionality (you can lay down one of four music tracks, put in transitions between scenes, and add graphics) to create fun, viral video clips. (Here's mine). Then once you e-mail that, an ad from Skittles is inserted in front of your mashup. It's the perfect media microchunk. Media companies need to provide more tools like this to help raise the bar for consumer-generated video.Many film and tv studios offers stills and desktop pictures on their websites. B2Day is right that they should also be offering video mixing tools as well.
