My First YouTube Movie production!!

[jimcaf]

Well i got a new PC about a month ago,,its got a program Movie maker on it..last week playing around with it I put together a 4 minute video of my 53 build up with good music,a slide show,and some video,,iv posted one or 2 out there before but not with music or effects,thought you all might enjoy it,,
so far its taken the last couple of years of my spare time and am into it for still less then $4000 in parts,,,,jim

Very nice build and really well done video.

That's nice );b(

You make it look so easy to change a rusty 4 door into that cool '53 roadster.....the magic of video

What kind of camera did you use to make the video?  I've made some videos with my regular digital camera but they are awful big files.  I'll have to check out some software that lets me fiddle with the files.  Cool stuff we can do nowadays....

That was a lotta work! the car looks great and the video was good, nice choice of music...In the Mood , indeed!!!

[jimcaf]

Thanks for the compliments !!!,,I thought the same thing the first time i viewed the video,,gezz that looked easy,fast too!!,
Its not hard to believe i got the car for free,,sometimes still i stand back and look at it and think i should of let the guy scrap it!,,Im so buried in  labor

On the video I used my Sony Cybershot DSC-W50,,Its a medium priced camera i got it about a year and a half ago for about 225,,  my first vids were all blurry and choppy looking and i found I need to always check and make sure the macro is off and since then it worked real good.
George funny you ask,,,my last digital camera was an olympis I picked it up on your recomendation from another forum,years ago,i remember you had taken a some close ups of a crack in and engine block,,its still a great camera  just to big,,

Cool. Nice job on the Vid and the hot rod... );b(

Do we get to take a peek at the other toys you have hidden in that there garage... :?:  

[Bugpac]

Excellent work, one suggestion might be to not hold the picture for as long...2-3 seconds is about perfect....Besides that, looks like work of a profesional...

Hmm, someone actually pays attention to what I say??  That's scary...

Yeah, I've moved on a couple of times since then too.  You can't even give those old cameras away today.

By the way Jim, I took the liberty to go to your Webshots album and grabbed a pic of your truck to turn into an avatar.  The one you have is a little blurry.  If you want to use it just save it to your computer and put it in your profile.  If not, that's cool.

George,,I just swaped it,that picture is much better for the avatar,,yeah its crazy technology today,,in just 4 years or so its turned into the brick phone of way back,,thanks  jim
