Video Log

This one was just for fun. Shot on my Canon SD1000, I wanted to cut a short piece but ended up with this 11 minute version for my mom and our family. Good chance I’ll cut a much smaller version but just not this morning. We’ve been going to the dog park at Soule in Ojai for the past month or so (pending decent weather). I have some ideas on shooting stories up here but this was just for fun.

The weather lately around So Cal, you’d think the Earth was that much closer to the Sun… So Dang Hot! So what do I do, I make my way down to the beach, no, not to swim, surf or tan, but shoot Video. I’ve been giving this project a lot of thought lately… mainly my approach to using the video like I would a still image. However, audio has driven my choices more so than the color. It seems I can find a decent color to shoot anywhere but finding good audio to stream with the video is important to me… my goal is to keep the integrity of the captured natural sound with that video clip. My biggest challenge lately has been to shoot away from a well-traveled highway with no traffic sounds. No problem with this clip.
