Excellent indeed. Hope you had a great 4th as well. The song is by 'The Weepies' and is titled 'The World Spins Madly On'.

How about that there iPhone video? Not bad, eh?

Yeah, color me impressed!

I tend to agree. There's something about the rough-around-the-edges quality of a 'mobile' video that makes it seem more personal than my typical HD stuff. Glad you enjoyed it, Dan. Hope you had a great 4th.

Good point Dan. It just has a feel to it that makes you more forgiving of any blemishes.

Yeah... like the faults and blemishes actually add to its charm.

speechless? ;-)

lol, Sorry. Recently my Mac has been VERY slow and I'm not sure why. It could be that I only have 30 GB of free space left? ACK. I'm trying to get a second external hard drive, but I'm hesitant- trying to find the best reliable, and best price for a large amount of space.
Anyway, here was my original comment:

(iPhone jealousy) :)

First off- I love this song. The Weepies are one of my many favorite bands!
and I loved the video- I like the way you see the world. (hope that doesn't sound too weird, lol.) but you edit the way I would have imagined editing it.

I totaly agree, Rebecca. Weepies are terrific. Deb Talon (lead singer) has a brilliant solo album called A Bird Flies Out that is brilliant and highly recommended also.

Only 30GB left. Ouch! I recently purchased a 1TB external drive from Fry's for about $100 just so I could offload and archive old video files.

Thanks for the reply. I think your 'the way you see the world' comment was a great compliment (and not weird at all.) :-)

Shooting on a phone is quite different. There's a feeling you get when you can just whip out a device and start shooting in seconds with no set-up.

As for Ici... there's a line like that from when they open the doors to when they close them. :-)

Thanks so much for such a great compliment. I forwarded this on to Mr. Bloom. He liked it but said only narrative films qualify.

Pah! What a spoil sport! :o)

Ah well. It is what it is. I'll hopefully be able to put together something else using the iPhone to enter into his competition.

Yeah, I was really surprised with the quality. With my phone always in my pocket, it's nice to know that I've got a videocam at my disposal any moment I have urge to shoot.

Thanks for the thumbs, Kev. Coming from you, I can only assume they've been severed.

I appreciate the restraint it must have taken you to refrain from spewing hurtful words my way.

P.S.
Go upgrade your 1st Gen, loser!

Cheryl, you're much too kind! It's hard for me to accept that a person could watch one of my videos and actually learn something! Hahaha.

Whoa! I hope your ankle is recovering okay. That totally sucks. Thanks for checking out the vid. I loved my 1st Gen., but with the addition of video, this little phone rocks my world.
