Description:

Oh look! It's Paris! Quick...get the camera! This video was originally 5 minutes long but came in at 356Mb so I had to truncate it. A pity because it's a good music track. And the compression has killed it. Whadya do? What effects did I use to make it? "Edgework" on iMovie on the Mac. Check out http://www.calendarsongs.com/Calendar%20Songs.html where she gives lyrics and vocal track monthly and you provide the music and http://www.ccmixter.net to Download the music track (4'46" long). It's under "CalendarGirl" and Briareus on the "Editors Picks". This is a Creative Commons site where you can "Download, Sample, Cut-Up & Share" - in other words find some great music to use with your videos. Don't forget to Attribute! I used a homemade Steadicam to shoot this. You can make one yourself. I have three videos on it. here's the first - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVe8wK7NWH0 You can also make a sort of Steadicam to shoot footage from your car like in this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9HI5XsAcBc All I did was bed the MiniDV on the dash with a lump of PlayDoh and some packaging tape or gaffer tape. Works like a treat. If you wanna know more about my life in Paris go to my site http://www.welcometowallyworld.com à bientôt, Malkie, Paris.

i liked the video, especially the idea of the filter, i should see if i have any available to me. in my opinion though it may not have been the best filter. half the time things looked cool, but the other half things were either not augmented enough or so staticy that i couldnt tell what was going on. just thoughts for the next time u use a filter

Great! YouTube has got this video to load a lot quicker. It used to take forever. Bravo!

Fucking YouTube lost the original reply to your comment. I posted that video to showcase Calendargirl and ccmixterdotnet - Creative Commons site where you can get music beds for your vids. The raw footage has been posted as a video response for weeks. I wanted the sound to take over the imagery - (as you put it).

no they're not...like yours they're tests. i'd welcome constructive criticism so that in the future i have more to think about, and can possibly improve them.

I just watched two of your vids (out of the six you've posted) and they're not exactly cutting edge or award-winning are they? Big mouth/no action. So run away and play with your toys now Pommie prick.

well...nice test, but i think next time you need to think harder about the music you use, the sounds really take over the imagery, and using a filter is never a good idea, especially this much. post it again with raw footage and better sound, i think it will be more successful.

That's alright...I was surpirised it was featured. It looked a lot better in the original 6 minute footage anyway.
