2010 Year End Video.

Well, here it is... 2 software applications, 3 start overs, and endless program crashes later, I present, my crowning video achievement thus far..

'Ezy Riders: Winter 2010'



Winter 2010 from josh on Vimeo.




All footage in the video is from Gore, Whiteface, and Jay Peak and was filmed by me, Greg, and Chris on my old Canon SD600 Elph. I must say this video took quite a bit of effort, mainly because my computer is junk and everything I did took forever, but also because I worked hard at piecing it all together and coming up with a nice flow, fitting music, and an overall entertaining viewing experience. I really enjoy making these videos. It gives me great pleasure to create something from scratch that I can enjoy with the others who made it possible and never forgetting some really great life memories.

I hope to gain more experience using my newest application, Adobe Premiere Elements. It seems to be pretty robust with features and is overall fairly intuitive. Next year I would like to include some interviews with friends and others at the mountain to share their experiences and make the video more varied.

Of course you can never have enough action clips and in that regard I would like to include new friends and locals at Gore, WF, and Jay as well. I would also like to get a new computer as well as a much better camera to make next years video even better... We shall see!!
