yup
finally
can you imagine living with a video editor?
trust me
you can't
i have long stayed far away from video
my love is still photography
occasionally
i shoot something that moves
it blurs
that's my experience
with
moving pictures
until now
i lie
twice in the past
i used the video camera on my iphone 4
but i never shared it
okay
i did share one
a very brief pathetic selfie 'singing'
those who know me
know why
'singing'
is in quotes
it was part of a video
put together to give a sick friend a smile
so technically it doesn't count
anyway
one morning
harry was playing with a toy
one
he especially likes to chew
on the floor
beside the scratching post
now normally
i would be all
ooh aren't you adorable
and
go back to whatever
but
that morning
i decided to make a video of his antics
when i was done
i wanted to share it
let me tell you how hard it is to export a video from an iphone
there are three options
mail
too big
did i want to send a clip
no i did not
message
whoa
too long
wanna select a smaller clip
no i do not
youtube
ahhh
just right
so i do
meanwhile
toonman
who is a video editor in real life
got involved
i googled
get this video off this fucking phone and into imovie please so my husband can help
guess what?
a tutorial
even instruction reading phobic me
could follow
it worked
easy peasy
but
toonman
does not like my computer OS interface
he opted to stay in the land of OS 10.6
while i am in 10.8
soooo
we plugged my iphone into his imac
added some music
a little editing
and
here it is
my debut video
my debut video
some would say
i pulled
a tom sawyer or is it a huck finn?
He's a hoot and a half. So fun to see him and his adorable antics. Yay you!
ReplyDeleteWow, music and everything! I'm impressed.
ReplyDeleteHarry's adorable. I can see how you were inspired to try video. Good job!
Adorable antics ...and a great debut video.!!
ReplyDeleteyour first professional video! You had the perfect subject matter - one that poses for the camera. Harry is beautiful and so playful!
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome D!!! Absolutely awesome!! I love it!! Harry sure had FUN and he's a natural at pole dancing!! xo Jeanne
ReplyDeleteWow. Go you! Magic Harry with the laser eyes is very cool. Funny what comes up in the end on YouTube. Sexy Cougar pranks and the like. Ha!!
ReplyDeleteAhhhh! He has the laser eyes! Hehehe super cute:)
ReplyDeleteOMG, he is absolutely adorable, Daryl.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great video, and thanks for sharing it here!
Happy Sunday to you!
Good for you!! One of the reasons I like having my new iPhone instead of my former Droid phone is because I can just plug it in to my iMac and import videos. Easy!! Thanks for sharing:-)
ReplyDeleteBravo! I love how the camera captures her glowing eyes. thanks for sharing Daryl, made me smile!
ReplyDeletevery good video my dear! what an adorable little pal....I really do need to get one especially to keep my mom company when I go to the city for the day! Have a great rest of your Sunday!
ReplyDeleteI think the video is great, especially for your first attempt. I like the bouncy porn music.
ReplyDeleteDevil eyes, I tell ya, he's got devil eyes!! :-)
ReplyDeleteExcellent! And I just wrote tomorrow's blog post where I talk about wanting to dabble in video too. However, I don't have an i-phone so I might resort to the old fashioned video cam. If I can ever figure out how to work it.
ReplyDelete*Applause!*

Bravo! Bravo! Encore!
ReplyDeleteDaryl, great vid! I'm still a still purist!
ReplyDeleteWell done Daryl, you have created a new youtube sensation, This is one of the things I love about cats, they make their own fun!! Looooooooove the wooden floors.
ReplyDeleteFun!!! You did well and the toy was a definitely a winner.
ReplyDeleteOK, you know I love Harry, so no further comment concerning him. I do have a question, though. What is the music? I love it. As a bass player, I'm a sucker for those rock-steady funky sort of lines.
ReplyDeleteI say, 'I watched it and what amazing eyes Harry has :).' Well done!
ReplyDeleteNow you have to join Vine:)
ReplyDeleteI am in love with Harry...stinky or not:)
