Having Fun With the Lewis Family Through a Camera Lens.

My equipment is the Canon Vixia HV30 High Definition video camera. I recently purchased a Canon T2i DSLR camera as well. Can you tell I'm a Canon fan? I'm currently editing on Adobe Premiere Pro 1.0 and also use Premiere Elements 7.0 so I can edit in HD. Most graphics and special effects are done in Adobe After Effects and PhotoShop.

The DSLR will not only shoot amazing photos, I will also be able to shoot 1080p high definition video. The big advantage will be the ability to use various lenses for what I'm shooting.

March Happenings

Well, we've been really busy this month trying to get the editing backlog in better shape. There were a few very large projects at the end of last year that extended our backlog temporarily. Now that the weather is finally getting better we'll be out practicing camera techniques learned in the past year. One thing we're contemplating is to shoot all weddings this year in a widescreen format. That will depend entirely on the current equipments ability to maintain high quality. This is the first step toward going to High-Definition as the shooting technique is a little different.

My practice runs usually revolve around the grandkids. Here is a clip I made when I first purchased a Glidecam camera stabilizing device. The kids loved to come over and play in the leaves so I got some camera practice and some work out of them!

We'll be soon posting some wedding video clips again. So, stay tuned.
