    I'm honing in on my video editing... what do you think? (feedback)

    I shot some stuff around the house this evening. And editied it together (ala TOOL (the band) cutting style). It's still pretty crude, and raw, but I kinda like it.

    Forgive the subject matter, and dying Magnolia was all I could find.

    After editing it raw (with no sound) I decided to put a song in there for flava. Oddly enough (and it's true, ask KEEV) the rough edit matched the song's beat by about 70%. I thought that was pretty cool, so I just tweaked it a little bit...

    What do you guys think? I'm trying to improve my editing style, and technique.

            LOL, I have like 6 songs on my PC. and that was the first one I tried. I used it because the edit matched most of the beats.

            Trust me if I could compose... I would.

                In theory ........... but what is the limit


                The Detachable Penis



                I woke up this morning with a bad hangover and my penis was missing again. This
                happens all the time; it´s detachable. This comes in handy a lot of the time; I
                can leave it home when I think it´s gonna get me in trouble, or I can rent it
                out when I don´t need it. But now and then I go to a party, get drunk, and the
                next morning, I can´t, for the life of me, remember what I did with it. First I
                looked around my apartment, and I couldn´t find it, so I called up the place
                where the party was, they hadn´t seen it either. I asked them to check the
                medicine cabinet, because for some reason, I leave it there sometimes, but not
                this time. So I told them if it pops up to let me know. I called a few people
                who were at the party, but they were no help either.

                I was starting to get desperate, I really don´t like being without my penis for
                too long. It makes me feel like less of a man, and I really hate having to sit
                down every time I take a leak.

                After a few hours of searching the house, and calling everyone I could think
                of, I was starting to get very depressed, so I went to the Kiev and ate
                breakfast. Then as I walked down Second Avenue, toward St Mark´s Place, where
                all those people sell used books and other junk on the street, I saw my penis
                lying on a blanket next to a broken toaster oven - some guy was selling it! I
                had to to buy it off him. He wanted 22 bucks, but I talked him down to 17. I
                took it home, washed it off, and put it back on. I was happy again: complete.

                People sometimes tell me I should get it permanently attached, but I don´t
                know. Even though sometimes it´s a pain in the ass, I like having a detachable
                penis.

                    Thanks...........We are not done with the last video.

                    It was great talking to you also. But what i suggest is to get to know some of the local bands in your area and sit down for a serious project. All the work you do may not be lost and you will find more artists wanting to contact you do work on a project.

                    I met with some of the artists that will be working on the new sound track for Cirque Du Soleil . I am going to begin working on some videos based on some of the percussian and music they use.

                    I am also meeting with another musician from New York to begin our next music video.

                                  There isn't too much around here to shoot. A dying tree was about all I found. That or a brick wall. LOL


                                  The inspiration (outside of Dugmor) was the band Tool. I worked on one of the earlier videos, Adam Jones used to do special fx, and so I really like his style. That over exposed, choppy, flickering, jumpy cutting style.

                                  I like Dugmor's idea of shooting a video for a local band... but I live in LA, where am I going to find a band?

                                      Good work, really enjoyed it.

                                      The only hint I have is if you are going to add music instead of looking for a song that has similar beats to your editing, pick your song first and changing the editing to match the beats of the song.

                                      I found that works easier

                                      but hey.... detachable penis is a great song.......

                                        LOL, you're right. I've edited all 40 of the collegefuckfest trailers, and every time I edit the song first (It's a 4 minute song that I chop down to 30 - 45 seconds. It's a little different every time. Then I cut the action to the beats.

                                          Personally, I thought that sucked, but then you burned me by claiming it was "similar" to TOOLS



                                          also, tools mostly does stop-motion

                                                Which video camera did you use? Any experience with the PDX 10?

                                                  I have a Sony VX 2000. And sadly... I don't even know what a PDX 10 is.


                                                  Thanks GodSpeed.
