    Tested to DESTRUCTION



    Nick/HEXUS.tv tries his damnable best to shaft one of the Corsair boy's USB drives, with a small dose of 147+ bhp and some sparks

    Heh that's excellent. The camera work made me feel a bit seasick though... A couple of suggestions:

    1. Make your own steadycam

    or

    2. VirtualDub and the Deshake filter



    The Deshake filter works particularly well. Obviously there is a little bit of loss in quality, but if you're compressing it for the web anyway, by the time people download it, you probably wouldn't notice.
