Summary:
It's a Tuesday afternoon and I am bored out of my mind. I decided to throw on my snowboard gear and perhaps do a profile video for myself. I go outside, didn't really have much of a direction. So I played around with some shots and got about 8 minutes of footage.
Went back inside and started editing. I was lost, so I just started throwing together little clips, and then I decided a look and feel. So I threw it into Color and changed some stuff around. Went back and added some effects. Then For the text, I decided I would have to choose the song first, so the text would match the music. I sampled around and found the song I wanted (a bit cliche). Then I wasted about another hour trying to figure out how I'm going to compress the thing.
The whole purpose of this video was for me to practicing shooting & editing. I gave myself the restriction of a 30 second timeline. I felt some clips were boring so I tried to work on new effects. A lot of the effects you see are created by me (expect the TV simulator, I keyframed it a bit, and the camera shake).
