The Glasslab's Experiment 004 yo-yo video (2001)

This is a project I shot in Minneapolis in early 2001 (with help from my friend Josh) and sent to Glasseye for editing. Glasseye did an amazing job of editing and even scoring the video and breaking it up into 3 distinct parts. This video was really influential in me getting my tricks seen by many new players all over the world and helped me make a name for myself. You'll see Gyroscopic Flops, Bermuda Triangles, Solid Loop Diabolo, The Robot, Möbius style, and many more of the tricks I'm known for.

Here is the description from the original TheGlasslab.com website:

"Experiment 004 - 5:29min, 320 X 240, released 04/20/2001
Sometime around the middle of March, Doctor Popular sent me about two hours of raw footage and asked me to put together a video for him. You are about to see the outcome! This video has it all: See Doc in the Disco Redroom. Catch a glimpse of the elevator that leads down to the Underground Lab. Underwater yo-yoing? Underwater Solid Loop Diabolo? You bet. Plus a section to help you learn Doc's latest and greatest tricks.

This project has taken over a month of editing in the glasslab. One of the biggest challenges for me was the music since I pieced everything together for this one... the beats, the scratching, the dialog, the sound effects, etc... Hope you like it."

update: 20 years later, Glasseye and I filmed a follow up video about the making of Experiment 4. Watch it here    • PopCast Yo-Yo Vlog: Experiment 004 turns 20!
