Doing my daily morning rounds of info surfing, I saw this article from Good and Evo. A Music television quality Music video shot completely in HD with the EVO 4G.

FROM GOOD and EVO:
The HTC EVO's 8-megapixel rear camera is a far cry from a professional camera, but it's proven to be more than capable of taking great outdoor photos and macro images (with a lens attachment). We've seen it set up in a pro video rig before and now, thanks to G&E reader More Attitude Raw Skill, we can see how it does well called upon to record a music video.

Shot in HD with the EVO (stock camera app and grayscale effect), the raw footage was imported into Windows Movie Maker where some fades, transitions, and screen blurs were added. Before the latest software update, which is when the video was shot, the EVO would sometimes freeze when recording HD video (the update appears to have fixed this), so an old movie effect was added over the freeze frames to make them a part of the finished product. Other than the effects, though, nothing else was done to enhance the video quality.

not bad, a little annoying to see the camera switch from mirror to regular ever 5 seconds but not bad at all.
 
it's okay. not the best use of the camera, given that they just do mirror shots. If it was in color, you'd see how bad everything gets saturated due to the light sources changing.
 
That was pretty damn cool. Very creative. And very smart to do it in black and white instead of color. Instead of seeing what flaws it could have had, they used their creativity and brains to do something different and used it to their advantage. Example, instead of crying that the video would freeze once in a while, they were very creative in making that freeze moment into an actual part of the video.
 
That was terrible.

REALLY?!?! TERRIBLE ?!?! That's a bit extreme .. Remember it was completely shot with a HTC EVO 4G CAMERA PHONE ;).. I believe it was smart and well executed for the skill set and equipment they had at their disposal .. The lyrics are pretty on point also .. I would love to see ANDROID CENTRAL do a contest on who could make the best videos/commercial with their android phones and about their android specific phones.

THIS is a terrible video: YouTube - Take on me- Family Guy .. IMHO :p

THAT VIDEO IS AWESOME!! LOL Family Guy ftw!!

I agree. that would be cool to have some type of commercial of video contest on Android Central
 
Looks exactly like what it is. Some generic rap song combined with completely unstable phone camera usage, topped off with way too many effects from Windows Movie Maker.

I wasn't talking quality of video. I was talking quality of music.
