Why not just have the app dynamically generate the static with random numbers every time. There is no video file of white noise, and bonus the bumper intro is never exactly the same twice.
That's a good idea. They could probably do something similar for the audio.
They'd have to code around the rest of the animation and audio effects, but the size of that code would certainly be smaller than the rendered audio and video.
These are both really cool ideas and seem like a fun project.
You guys are basically describing the old Demoscene.
Love that stuff, it's so cool.
Maybe we've gotten used to that very particular white noise pattern and anything else would feel wrong?
Completely pulled that out of my ass, for the record.
Do you think dynamically rendering 4k snow is something your typical FireTV stick is capable of doing?
