I just watched it… wow, that was cool. And it’s as if we’re on the verge of it right now. The YouTube spot is a little long at 5:32, but hey, it’s a day right? Who would’ve thought something this neat came from a glass manufacturer? Watch for the moving pictures @ 0:56 (you’ll see them again later). @ 2:04, “I want that car!” And I’m especially loving Mr. Metro at 2:56. Why can’t I look cool like that? Enjoy tomorrow today.
Now I’m just waiting for the sequel from the company that’s creating the operating system…
Just finished my first wedding video ever. The actual service was pretty long, and is going onto a DVD, but I put together this highlights video that I thought turned out pretty nice. I’m going for “emotional but not cheesy” and hopefully I did ok on that. Yes, I know there’s some slo-mo, but I took a somewhat classical approach to the music in order to make up for that. Finished this up late last night. It’s amazing what a decent musical score can do with very average video footage!
I’m so glad that both the wedding service itself and the highlights video turned out ok. Since this was the first time I’ve done a wedding, I had that sinking feeling the whole time that I was getting the wrong angles, the lighting was bad, the audio wasn’t picking up, my footage was too jerky… all that stuff. And honestly, the footage wasn’t that great – there’s quite a few things I’ll do different next time – but all in all with some helpful post production filters in FCP, I am hopeful it will be a nice heirloom for Carmen & Charles. Congratulations to the two of you. God bless.
Music (once again) came from my Stock 20 music library. This is such a great library of stock music and I’d recommend it to anyone out there. I did all the editing work on this one in Final Cut Pro with extensive use of the ProcAmp filter!
Yes, it’s shameless self promotion, I know. But I was showing someone this video I did last summer and, well, I have to admit that I made myself laugh. That’s pretty sad when you’re entertaining yourself with your own jokes! So I’m resurrecting it or re-purposing it or whatever you want to call it from my YouTube channel. Enjoy!
