Calling The Universe

My addiction for creating videos using my laptop's video editing software just doesn't stop. I made a video on Century Bangus as an entry to Nuffnang's contest in which Iphones are up for grabs! It's a blog writing contest but I made extra efforts to make a video of it. Here's a call to the universe to make me win. Oh please, please, pretty please?

My contest entry is posted at my other blog here.

Experimenting With Vaio Movie Story

I've been using my Sony Vaio for almost a year now but it was only yesterday when I decided to create a video using its Vaio Movie Story, a video editing tool. There are templates that are ready to use, you just have to add the pictures and videos you want to appear on the storyline and the editor will arrange the scenes. You can tweak it afterwards. I used the pics on our recent photoshoot by Bon Aserios and some video clips taken with my Nokia E71.

I am getting hooked on editing videos that I have to constantly remind myself I still have tons of things to do. Anyway, here is my first attempt at video editing using Sony Vaio:

Field of Dreams

A shot I took using my trusty Nikon D40 and kitlens. This was during our photoshoot last Saturday with photographer Bon Aserios. He edited the pic. It was a Japanese-themed pictorial in which I did the makeup for our model, Audrey.

I have another scheduled Geisha shoot and I understand my clients' fascination for such themes. Photographs featuring Japanese scenery are always so rich and colorful, which brings Akira Kurosawa's film, Dreams, to mind.

I really hope to revive my passion for photography soon. I wish I could have the 50mm lens that Bon recommended.

Here is the original version of the pic:
