Video Projects-"The First"

This is the first video project I have done and I found it like most techno stuff to be fairly easy once you figured out is was going on (Of course, Jason’s blow by blow instruction CD was a great help). I didn’t put any music to my video. I looked at my rather meager selection of audio files, tried a few old rock and rock but being as most of my music is from the 60’s and 70’s, it just didn’t really seem to fit, just made me seem older! Then I tried using Wagner’s “Ride of the Valkyries” as the intro, but being as I found I couldn’t fade out the music when I wanted to start talking it didn’t work. I found the transition to my voice to be akin to someone throwing a cold blanket over the fire.

As a side note, I have a business and for my business I had a company make a film strip like this for me for advertising with the local paper’s web site. The cost was about $700, so there is a side business for someone.

I am reluctant to post my video being as it has pictures of many of my past and present students, if you would like to see this project please don’t hesitate to contact me and I will email you a copy.
