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. :)
