Announcing the Orrick Startup Reel Contest

• sixQuarks 14y ago
  I don't understand what ReelSurfer is. At first, I thought it was a way to clip several different videos together, but it just looks like a site where people upload videos. What is the value proposition?
  • njoglekar 14y ago
    ReelSurfer lets you cut short clips from any video on the web and string them together into reels. We do not let anyone upload videos.

      OK, I see. so is there a 15 second limit on the videos?
      • njoglekar 14y ago
        There is a 30 second limit on the clips, but the reels can be as long as you want. Are you going to enter the contest?
        • sixQuarks 14y ago
          I don't have time, I wasted too much surfing HN and Reddit.

  "At least half of the total time must be from videos on the Orrick TOTAL ACCESS Youtube channel." ...and I'm not excited about participating or viewing the results anymore. If their stuff is great it should make it in on its own merits not because they paid for it.

    That's the wrong way to look at it. These videos have great sound bites, but our point is that they are lost inside of a long video. We think this contest will help bring those moments to life!
