Recycling, also known as .VEG Recycling or most commonly .VEG Replacments is a technique where a completed video project has its sources completely replaced by other material.
It is most commonly seen in Vegas (hence the ".veg", which is the Vegas project file extension) however it is possible in any editor that lets you replace footage (or won't crash out if footage changes from what it should be).
How to Recycle
The process of recycling is relatively simple, but requires a bit of work to be done effectively.
- You need a VEG/PRPROJ/etc. file to recycle with. It is recommended to use one that is completely irrelevant to the current project. Remember, you aren't making the project file for the video, but using a different one!
- Open the file, then replace the footage with whatever you want (preferrably for every source in the file).
- Watch the horrors you've created!
Notable Examples
One of the most famous examples of Recycling. While not a tennis itself, it spawned many "veg replacement tennis matches" due to its .veg file being publicly available.
This example uses a recycling as a Puzzle Piece: these weirdly generated sequences were then incorporated into a final video.
