    ha ha cool! you didn't even wait for the video to be converted and you left a comment....you awesome...
  • That's one sexy mailbox.

    haha
    i hope your neighbors saw you too..

    "what's that guy doing filming his mailbox?"

    because I certainly got looks when I made my video.
  • Mark Jensen 2 years ago
    i made sure no one was watching :) but yes, neighbors would have thought i was crazy and gone nuts.
  • Ian Lucero plus 2 years ago
    hahaha. That's the best times to film. Then you do a little dance and fart on your way back into the house.

    That is an interestingly curly mailbox!
  • i ESPECIALLY make sure to fart on the way back to the house/car.

    toot toot..

    film THAT stranger! haha
  • Mark Jensen 2 years ago
    tooting makes the trip back to the house faster :)

    Wow! I mean WOW! This is fantastic! Smooth shots around the angles and panning in. The music goes perfect with your video too.
  • Mark Jensen 2 years ago
    thx linda...yeah, i spent some time making sure the music went hand in hand with the video since music plays a big role in making a video interesting as well.

    Nice work - how long did it take to edit out?
  • Mark Jensen 2 years ago
    honestly didn't spend that long. maybe 1 hour. in adobe premiere pro cs3.
    thanks! you should try one now :)

  • Ralph 2 years ago
    seriously considering it Mark ... as yet, still playing around with subject and setting.

  • Matt Taylor 2 years ago
    Really cool Mark! My wife and I really liked your choice of music and how you synced your shots with it. Great work!
  • Mark Jensen 2 years ago
    thx....
  •  
  • janocjapun 2 years ago
    How came I missed yours? Good the email-notification works again ...

    Very precise synced to the music, I like that very much!
    Is there a possibility to set some kind of cutting-grid in Premiere? I'll better post that to the Adobe-Channel forums ...
  • Mark Jensen 2 years ago
    cutting grid for syncing music to video you mean? i normally just use the audio graph to determine where to start and stop the video according to the music.
  • janocjapun 2 years ago
    Yeah, I postet a thread in your adobe channel – let's discuss it there!

  • goldentouchfarm plus 2 years ago
