Talent show!

Guys,

You guys did a great job in performing. I enjoy every part of it. I hope you all would also did as well as your shooting and editing too. I know, may be not now, but you will, soon, if you work hard.

I've got this little bit edited. Sorry, my point & shoot did not focus well. A lost-of-focus here and there. But you get a sense of how events can be edited in a video presentation. Great job! Joshua.

My video week-iary

This is a space where we share our works and thoughts. Show off your works here. Give constructive comments on others' work or critique your own. Anything about what we learn are welcome. We are going to benefit a lot from this blog by exchanging ideas. So, start putting videos, photos, links to good learning stuff, or simply some literal thoughts of your own on this blog now.

Some of you may already know, Jennifer is working on her "One Photo a Day" project. I am very happy to see her making such a serious commitment on photography. I am not as ambitious as Jennifer, but I want to support her spiritually to start my project "One Video a Week." I call it "Video Week-iary." I don't know if I can be as persistent as Jennifer, but I will try. And I invite you to join me in some similar way.

I will start with videotaping things around me. Not big events, no celebrities. Just things that interest me. But I will try to use the video shooting technique to tell you the story or how I feel about something. I think this is going to be fun and educational.

My first video week-iary is "Rainy Day"
