I've got a digicam that happen to also make little Quicktime videos. I just started experimenting with it. Not bad for what it is I guess.

Here's a little video clip where I was experimenting with the production a little. I edited it frame by frame in Paint Shop Pro. Check it out let me know what you think. It's in Quicktime movie format.

Well I couldn't figure out how to do most of the stuff Quicktime Pro advertised, because I don't get along well with help menus, but I did figure out how to trim the movie, and export frame sequences. So I just edited the PNF files frame by frame, and made about 30 more at the end.

I have Photoshop, but my wife prefers Paint Shop Pro, so that's where all her cool filters are installed. I made the trail effect with something from EyeCandy 4000. Added it to 4 frames, increasing length, and opacity each time.

I didn't have much footage to work with, I need to set up a stunt coarse and start working on something, now that I have the means, but I still need figure out how to attach music. I've only played with it a few hours, I'll get better.

Thanks for the compliments. Encourages me to make more.

I was playing around late last night. I'm going to be tired at work tonight, but that's alright, because I'm happy with what I've done.

dave, that's awesome man - I was just day dreaming about running my bit in the tub yesterday - thinking it would be somewhat like a half-pipe.

great vid man.

Thanks for the compliments guys.

I got to tell ya how this video came about.

See I was looking at that Celica body, and theorizing that the little exhaust pipe is what was keeping it from riding out wheelies. So I cut it off, and Bam! Instant wheelies. So I had to grab the camera, but then I thought just doing wheeies back and forth doesn't make for a very interesting video, so I grabbed some cardboard and taped it up. I had taken a bunch of shots, that I thought was cooler than the ones that made it in the vid, but when I went edit it all together I found I was saving wrong and lost everything. So now it's late and I have to go to bed, so I just went and snapped off some shots real fast and took what I got. I just thought it was funny that I'm sitting staring at my car winding down for the night, I get a little idea, and I'm up half the night editing video.

I also got to tell ya, I've had this camera all along, but it's just a $200 digicam, and the quicktime videos is just a bonus feature. So I figured it wasn't very good as a video camera, and was waiting to see if I could borrow my MIL's digital video camera, but I've since found out they paid like $4000 for it, and no ones allowed to touch it. So with that idea out, I was forced to use my digicam, and I actually think that I get pretty good results considering what I'm using, and it's natural room lighting. If I could get a hold of a photo flood, I think I might actually get really nice results.
