My first movie–Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary–is in the can.\u00a0 Actually, it is is the envelope since I burned it to DVD.\u00a0 I really want to upload it to the web but can’t seem to get it small enough.<\/p>\n
I am, all in all, pretty pleased with the project. It definitely evolved.\u00a0 I had originally planned to do just the music part, and only added the introduction over the past few days after I had an inspiration.\u00a0 I think the introduction helps because it names a lot of the animals you see in the musical part.<\/p>\n
I picked Corkscrew as a topic because it was small; we only spent a few hours there.\u00a0 Unfortunately, that meant we didn’t have a ton of footage; you’ll see a lot of repeats, like the little blue heron.\u00a0 We probably stood and watched him for 10 minutes so he shows up a lot in the video.\u00a0 As I consider my next project, the amount of video and number of images available will be a consideration.<\/p>\n
I only used a few transitions in the piece.\u00a0 I want to experiment with them and filters during the next project.<\/p>\n
I think I wasted a lot of time on the music.\u00a0 Using midi files with multiple tracks will help speed that process along even if it means I’m not performing the song.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
