Twas the night before Christmas… well the 18 December 2009 to be honest. A few of us were drowning our sorrows in the Duke of Wellington after realising we’d been excluded from Michelle’s leaving lunch. What we needed was a way of showing Michelle just how creative, funny and technically amazing our small band of outcasts were.
In an attempt to cheer ourselves up, we began to chat…
“Aren’t those Hitler parodies funny” – said someone.
“Yea. Great.” – said another.
“Shame we didn’t have time to create one for Michelle” – said us all.
At that moment we all looked at each other smiled, downed the rest of our pints and made a dash back to the office.
Two hours later we embed the following video and shared it with the rest of digit:

How did we do it?
1) Download the Original bunker scence without subtitles
2) Create the subtitles using the Youtube subtitler
3) Create a You Tube account, upload the video and add the captions
4) Embed the video on the digit site http://www.digitlondon.com/bye-michelle (It’s the only way to force the captions to play by default)
It really was great, I appreciated your efforts hugely. I’m very sorry you felt left out, if it’s any consolation, I had no idea what was happening that Friday and we were always going to dinner together! I have to point out that I’ve seen no pineapples here yet, nor their sisters. xxx
