Vidding stuff

[ash48]

So, I made a fanvid recently that, well, just didn't really work. It kinda sucked actually. It got me down for a bit but realised that not all creative pursuits are successful. It did however help me come to grips (at least in part) with my new you beaut vidding program, Final Cut Express, so all is not lost. :)

It's been shelved and quite probably will never see the light of day - unless I feel like tackling it again, which I somewhat doubt. My thanks go to a couple of gals (they know you they are) for helping me out. I appreciate it. *hugs*

I am so missing my show - like BIG time! I NEED to see my boys!

Sorry you had to shelve it, hon. I think you've got a good attitude about it. If it's not working for you, move on to something that is! :)

Thanks. :)

I've actually started a new one which I'm feeling (cautiously) optimistic about.

Thanks again.

Thanks. Bit of a bummer but I've started on a new one which I'm pretty excited about. We'll see how it goes. Thanks again.

I was wondering why I hadn't seen a new vid from you in awhile. Sorry to hear your initial foray into FCE wasn't successful :(

I actually just posted my first FCE vid. I finally overcame my laziness and taught myself how to use the darn thing! Did you feel like a kid in a candy store upon discovering the effects tab? I'm amazed I didn't abuse the effects more this first time 'round.

Hi hun,

Thanks for dropping by. :)

Yeah, shame my first vid using the program was a dude idea but that's the way it goes and it did teach me a lot. Actually, I'm about to post my new vid, probably tomorrow in which, yes, I was like a kid in a candy store! Hee! (I think I may have abused it just slightly.) I'm so totally in LOVE with it! Key framing is to die for and I just love the way the whole thing just, well, works! Once I got over the initial hurdle of working out that I needed to import .dv and not .mov, I was off and running.

I'll check out your new vid and it's great to know you are also using FCE - we may be able to swap notes. Well - probably just me asking you "How did you do THAT?!"

Thanks again.
