Whistler Ski Video
I just love watching the videos on this thread; getting lots of ideas.
Here is the latest one I did of my son and grandson skiing at Whistler over Spring Break. The "stop action-like" stuff was taken with my Canon 50D on a tripod:
I'm new to the joys of Smugmug Video, and have just posted a new musical slideshow video on my page.
I have been looking over this thread and am blown away by beautiful, polished, and professional these videos are! My little offering seems crude by comparison. Nevertheless, I'm Jumping in...

Spend part of my weekend sorting through video clips from a trip to Europe last week. I'm no video editor and totally new to this, but video takes reliving your memories to a whole new level!
Wonderfully Shot. I've been working in television for 16 years and know a lot about editing. I think straight cuts and dissolves are the classiest. Your fade up from black at the top and about halfway through could be a lot slower to help enhance the mood. I get what you were trying to accomplish but I'm not too into the flash frames of white and black throughout. The way you sped up and slowed down the video was well executed and added to the surrealism that the black and white had already created. Well done!! <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/clap.gif" border="0" alt="" >

What software did you use?
Let me also add that when the drum beats start toward the end, having your cuts on the downbeat would have been better.

Whoah, blast from the past! Thanks so much for your feedback. I really appreciate it especially as I am (still, more than a year later) am fumbling with the idea of video editing.
I do believe I used iMovie 09 for that video. Since then I've made several smaller movies using FCE but I'm still really unsatisfied with anything I put out.
I have another project currently on my plate and so your suggestions come at a great time. Thx again!

No problem, if you have anymore questions, feel free to ask.

Nice start on the video! My crits are: no need for watermarks in a video, the title with the bird's name comes up many times, it's only needed once, and why is the video cropped as it is?
Thanks for teaching me how to post videos and for the comments too. Those are just clips that I took and so I put them in a movie together with the photos. I have been a victim of people stealing photos from the web so many times that's why I make sure to put watermarks in all my pictures that are posted online. It is obvious that it is my first movie ever. The reason for the watermarks is that I always thought the people can get the images from the video if they are able to download it. Thanks again.
Whitewater with a floating droid phone!
Bought a waterproof cover for my phone on Amazon because I did not want to take my DSLR. Around $30 it was. Found one that would let you use the controls even under water. And then took it on a guided whitewater trip on the DeSchutes River in Oregon. I have one of those big Galaxy Notes phones.... several years old now.
So I got dumped in fast & cold rapids twice and I barely noticed that my phone was floating at eyelevel both times. I was trying to catch my breath and find the raft! Worked pretty good, except the bright sun and moisture on the plastic case made it hard to know when the "red light" said I was actually in record/play mode. Anyhow..... here's the moving pictures.....
Loving the ease of video integration!
Yes! Finally, it's so easy for my two worlds of photography and timelapse to easily sit side by side on my website! I just finished the "first round" building of my new SM website. It's not perfect by any means, but I think it's good enough to share online this week. Part of it is a page of timelapse videos I've done. I'm not sure how to do the fancy embedding codes here, so I'm just going to link to my page.
Be sure to check out the first one- it's the first of its kind I think....
So I've just spent the better part of a couple hours watching from the beginning all the cool stuff here and seeing the progression of technology at the same time which was pretty interesting. I received a GoPro this summer and decided I just needed to get it out of the box and try it. So here is my first 'real' attempt at trying to focus on video (figure the darn thing out), stills (took my older body), music (not get in trouble over copyright), editing (iMovie was free) AND keep it short and interesting (under four minutes total). Let me know what you think please. This attempt was really just the above with the focus on trying to show a little bit of a trip. That's the whole story line. lol....

Here is a video of the punk band FANG that I shot and edited. This is from their set from last Friday in Sebastopol, CA. I pretty new to editing with Adobe Premiere Pro Cs6. I shot this with my Canon 7D, Tamron 17-50 f2.8 lens and used my Rode videomic. I edited the audio with Adobe Soundbooth CS5.

Yikes! remind me not to have a BBQ in your backyard..
Very cool stuff.
Here's one from spending a month camping in the forest. Really fun project to create.
Hello, folks, Tony here,
I'm new to the joys of Smugmug Video, and have just posted a new musical slideshow video on my page.
I have been looking over this thread and am blown away by beautiful, polished, and professional these videos are! My little offering seems crude by comparison. Nevertheless, I'm Jumping in...

"Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most."
Really cool. I especially loved the shots of the deck where you have the motion of the mountains slipping by as well as the slight pan of the camera.

Also, is there a way to sell these on Smugmug??
Nice! You can embed your videos in this forum, too.
As for your sales question, that's something you should ask in the SmugMug Pro Sales Support forum.

We had the chance to hang out with the NorCal Land Rover Club. Cool group of people. Great reminder of that event.
Great trip! Liked the video. I should have kept my '04 GS

Humbly, here is my latest video I posted to Smugmug. Enjoy!
Sorry, bumped a dead thread I see.
