Turn Your Favorite YouTube Video into an Oscar-Worthy Masterpiece with The Artistifier! Caleb Hamilton, February 27, 2012February 27, 2012 The silent film genre has returned! With The Artist winning big last night at the 84th Academy Awards, I have a feeling we’ll be seeing a few more silent films in the coming years. But if you love silent movies, you don’t have to wait much longer. You can return any YouTube video to the glory of the silent film era with The Artistifier!The Artistifier YouTube app takes any YouTube video and “Artistifies” it. When you plug in the link to a YouTube video, The Artistifier turns the video black and white, strips it of its original audio and replaces that with an instrumental soundtrack. You can then add your name (as the director), a title for your artistified clip and captions, just like in a silent movie. When it’s all done, you’ve got yourself a contender for the Oscars race! The only drawback is you can’t share the artistified videos within your social network, but they are published to the site’s home page.I’ve included links to few below, since they can’t be embedded. But be warned, a couple of them are NSFW!The Dark Knight RisesSTOP FINGERING CHARLIE (NSFW)The Moral of Titanic (NSFW)So what are you waiting for? Get Artistifying!
