What do you do all day? I spend more time trying to find something to occupy my self than I actually end up doing. What to do with the eight or so hours a day when left to myself.
I spend some time in the morning checking on the garden. Pick a few veggies and water if need be. Then I try to find something on the television – usually without much success.
I can read a book in one day, some of them take two depending on the book and if something else is going on. I try to ignore the noise that drums on continuously throughout the day. Sometimes it reminds me of the whump whump background noise in a submarine movie that is briefly broken by kids screaming, couples fighting, and the police sirens.
I decided to learn more about the features of my video software and play around with them a bit. The results are – well – ok but not the greatest LOL but I am just learning right?
So here are the three things I tried out today.
Make an overlay where a zoomed in portion of the video is running in the corner of the main video (what ever the technical term is?) All of the video’s are under 60 seconds so it should not be too boring for you all to watch em . …
So I use a bee on a cucumber flower here:
Then I worked on cloning myself so I would have someone to talk to:
Next I tried putting cloning and stop motion into the same video:
Well it is the weekend – not sure what the plans are . …
And remind me what software you are using? I’m still sitting on iMovie, but think I’m ready to upgrade to something with a few more features.
I am using the Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD 9 right now. I am thinking of upgrading to 10. I really do not need the full pro version. For the comparably cheap price they are doing what I need them to do. I had the full Pinnacle Studio but it is an older version and does not work with win 64 bit. I tried the trial version of the new Pinnacle and it rendered slow and crashed – a lot. I forget what other trials I tried out but crash crash or slow slow slow.
The Sony products learning curve is one that my not so sharp mind can deal with.
Your mind is still tarp as shacks, Jan, and don’t you forget it!
The drain bramage requires that I use a blue tarp not silver to cover my shack. That said, one of me says thanks for the comment.
Holy smokes! That cloning business is cool, scary and wickedly full of dangerous possibilities.
The world might not be a safer place if I had three of me no? LOL Perhaps I should transport to a new galaxy?
Who was it that said ‘When we get bored, bad things happen’?
I am thinking that was you LOL on 19 March 2010 OK I cheated and looked for the date but I did sort of kind of remember that you had that as a post title.
Very cool and fun. I agree that the cloning and stop video have some dangerous possibilities. I love your creativity. 🙂
Not so sure about the creative part now as Zoom said bored . …
