Thank you guys for your nice words about the video and all. Hope the judges like it as much as you guys did!.
Nicely done. Some of the stills in there I would really love to sit and enjoy outside of the video. I'll check your Tumbler when I have more time.
Thanks Luke, yeah funny you noticed that, but most of the photos in the video are photos i have never shown before, some are new some are "old". Maybe im being to drastic on my editing. But now that im starting to selfpublish my own magazine and books I will start posting a lot more work!. should be fun!.
I enjoyed it! Hope it does well.
Yes, it's hybrid.
Thanks John!, hope the judges enjoy it as you did! Its fun this "hybrid" thing, but ricoh video feature is bad, really bad.
Very very cool Chris! I would have liked to have been able to see the stills just a tad bit longer. Maybe a slower transition? Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Jack!, its good that you were left asking for more!. I know what you mean about the transition, but since the main idea was to point a "journey" and "memories" those come as little "flashes". And thats how i treat it. Plus "wanting" some more is a good thing, means you are "interested", right?. Thanks for the support!
I definitely like this. It's a lot better than some of the other GR Movie entries. It has a nice rhythm, your photography is excellent, and it has an intriguing cinema verite feeling.
I wish I could make the time to put something together for this competition. But it sure as heck would not be filmed with the GR! It's ironic that Ricoh are holding a GR movie competition when the GR's actual video quality is so bad!
Thanks man, I appreciate your words!. Im glad you noticed the rhythm and all that. It's part of the story.
As for trying it yourself, please do!. would love to see what you come up with. I know what you mean about the Ricoh for video, im not a filmmaker but i can tell how bad the video is form the GR. But i dont think its ironic that Ricoh holds a video competition about the GR, cause the competition is making a video to show the GR not to shoot it with a GR, I decided to shoot it with the GR as part of what i wanted to achieve, theres a few other videos that are clearly not shot with a GR. I think its more interesting than another "photo comp" with a theme. go for it!.
I love my GR and it made sense to me to use it at its full potential, or at least what i think is its full potential. hahaha. to much to learn still....
