Thread: Grimvisions 06 Video attempt

Tweet

Here is my attempt at video of my display for 2006. Or at all. I never have video taped my display before. This was done after all the TOT's had left using a Canon elura 100 MiniDV camera which according to reviews had the best low light recording for the 300 dollar range. I am no videographer. I also used an external stereo microphone and dubbed no audio into this video (as you can tell by the nice police siren about half way thru). LOL. Oh well. And Yes I added the old film effect, the camera doesnt suck that bad. heh

Its about 5 minutes long. Its in widescreen format and 18MB. Enjoy. No laughing please

You did a great job with the video! (I think the "old film" affect is wonderful, it's just adds to the feel of it being a Halloween video...)

Amazing job with the decorations as well, the lighting truly adds to the overall feel....fantastic!

(Towards the beginning and end of the video, is than evil duck or a clown? I couldn't make it out...whatever it is, it's darned creepy! LOL)

I loved the video, Krough...and your lighting is superb! Of course, you already know how I feel about your props....outstanding!

Very nice video! The witch looked great in her shack

Wonderful video!! The props looks great, I'm hoping to do some trees much like what you have.

Was the motion blurring and all that due to the low-light?

I think it all was great!

What did you use for the lightening and thunder? I want to do that. There are so many kinds, I don't know what to choose.

Super job, makes me want to see it in person!

Some of the motion blur was due to low light yes, I think the camera has a small bit of trouble focusing in very low light, especially when zooming in and out in low light. Some of it was intentional.

The thunder and lightning was a controller from www.i-zombie.com
last year I used a controller I built, but this year I needed to control more wattage since the city put in a new street light to brighten my lawn, thats 500 watts of light there.

Krough....I just loved it. I agree with the others that the lighting is exceptional. Your pieces that you do are really something and I loved the shack with the witch

Thank you for sharing both the video and your tutorials. Hope to make good use of your tutorials
