Video of Isla • “Lazy Saturday”

I’ve started playing around with what I’ve half-heartedly dubbed “hybrid video”… Basically, video clips weaved into a photo slideshow. Amateur stuff to a videographer, I know, but a very new way of thinking and execution for me.

I love this, I do. I’m not trying to be down on it; I just have so many ideas my head could explode, but am sort of overwhelmed on where to start.

Well… This is my start. :) This is among my first handful of attempts and I’m still learning, still getting the hang of it and still expanding my ideas. We’ll see, right? I mean, what’s the worst that could happen?

But, of course, my mum totally loves this (Hamish too, of course!) so that’s what matters :)

I put this together using Animoto Pro, but there is a free version as well! It’s amazing; the software does all the heavy moving and lifting of the content, but there’s a lot to be said about thinking ahead while shooting how you want the final product to look and play through. This, of course, is where I’m at - learning how to think like a time-mover and not a time-pauser. :)

365? 52? What are you doing to capture your year?!

Happy new year, mamarazzis!

We hope this will be a year full of beautiful photographs, memories and learning/mastering your toys!

New year, new start, new projects… Always fun :) Are you participating in any 365 (photo a day) or 52 (photo a week) projects? We are!

Kimberly’s tackling a 365 project over at Monkey Doodle with hopes of turning it into a book at the year’s end.

I’m in a different direction, doing a 52 project over at Good Looking Life with a twist; every week I’ll post a photo *and* a video that just about sum up those past seven days. Full embarrassing disclosure: video skills? They’re a little dusty. Hardly beta, but dusty nonetheless. I don’t expect last week’s or this week’s to be ready until next week’s (or the week after).

Maybe my video project will be a 12-type project…

And that’s totally cool! It goes to show you can pick up on whatever day you like, you can start this as soon as your heart tells you to, and you don’t have to worry about the fact that the official new year has passed. Unimportant detail :) Just get out there (or in there, wherever you may be) and start capturing your life one frame at a time. :)

We’d love if you let us know your links too so we can check them out! Answer here or send us the link via our contact feature!

Happy numbering!
