My April Fool's prank for this year was a play off of YouTube's prank where they added a button to enable "1911 mode", where a ragtime piece would play over a sepia-toned video. I tried to recreate this effect as best I could and upload it with the effects already pre-rendered, so anyone viewing this hoping for an actual video would scramble for a few seconds trying to turn off 1911 mode before realizing the joke. Also there's a surprise at the end.
The funny thing is this video actually depicts a work in progress for me, but I hate previews so you won't be getting a real one.

I know it's been a while but I've been working on something awesome and I'd like to share what I have so far. Let me know what you think!
