corrosion video 1 (1997) (corrosion / scene strike 1 / creative-tech week promo)

---

another rarity from our past, found in our VHS archive, this is a promotional video for corrosion, made in 1997 to promote our work, and later used to promote creative tech week & scene strike 1 events, where it was presented to broader public and took party in competition.

it has 2 parts, introduction part presenting credits for the production, with guest music 'nordcore hölle' by nordcore g.m.b.h., taken from terrordrome VII compilation, one of our favourites of that time.

second part, main part, presents graphics, animation and photos from the contributing members of the group, including pioneering work in non-linear fx and editing, 3d animation and computer generated graphics. it is edited to a music called 'wandering' made by dominator, which is available at hardcorrosion 'brain damage' album.

video was made in one of the first versions of adobe premiere software, and then recorded to vhs tape on pc using graphics card with tv-output, hence the problems with vsyncs and occasional stutters, because of inability of available technology to keep up with broadcast standards. this was pre-DV era, even pre-DIVX era...

from the original infofile available at https://www.kosmoplovci.net/corrosion/video/corrosion.html

"this was our first meeting with premiere's non-linear editing philosophy. the 2 part presentation animation was created for creative-tech week event, and it competed in scene strike 1 wild compo.

animation/video contains pieces of 2d and 3d art created by numerous people who were members of our group at the time which were then synchronized and timed with 2 music pieces.

the only copy was saved on vhs tape, so here it is, for the history sake mostly ;))"

and now it is finally available on online video platforms.
