WELCOME!

I know there already exists threads like this, but this is my version.
I havent seen one of these for awhile, so I figured some new stuff would spice things up and help out some of the newer editors around here.

----------------------------------------------------
Well, many people couldnt use the 264 Encoded AVIs, so I got many requests to re-upload them. I did that, and 1upped it. I give you- 4 Versions of practice clips.

*NEW*
Phurion's Practice Clips Vol. 4(AVI)[WORKING]

-This is Volume 4 of the Practice Clips. Most of them are from Glimpse III, and a few that I didnt use. 20 clips, 2 sprees and 1 angle.
They SHOULD work on both PC and Mac, but im not guaranteeing they will work on a mac. I compressed them with Riverpast into a Quicktime AVI format, so if a Mac user would let me know if they work in the editing software, that would be great.

Also, the quality isnt the greatest, but its for editors to practice, so you dont need to release the video, you can show me for critique of course, but I dont think the quality is extremely important for practicing.

Hmm wierd I can usually view .avi files, but I cant view .mov files, so I just assumed it was a .mov file. Idk why I couldn't view your original .avi files then...weird. Anyways thanks again for .wmv! Now I can finally practice editing

Its because they were encoded with the x264 codec. It didnt work for alot of people.

WMV?

You 100% should be able to.

Did you extract the files from the .rar file?

You need winrar for that, its free trial just google "winrar" and download the trial.

Yeah, that and its like 700 MB. lol

I dont have much knowledge on compressing MOV files, I tried, and the quality is still pretty good, but the filesize was way too large so its not as many files, but its still somethin.
