St. John, My experience video

Post by Dave-a-roni »

Hey everyone. 8) I made a video and just posted it last night on YouTube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohNanD1wVdI
It's a 10 minute long complilation of short video's I just took on STJ.

*For best results, MAKE SURE YOU CLICK TO WATCH IN HIGH QUALITY, to do that, it's found under "VIEWS" in the lower right corner of the video. Also let whole whole thing load so you can play it uninterupted. I hope you can sit through it, I got some cool shots! :) :D

Enjoy!

Wow, that was awesome! Great job. I'm going to put a link to it on our blog so that friends and family can check it out. We hardly take our camera with us anymore since I have my iPhone but video captures the beauty so much more. We need to start shooting small clips like that. Thanks.

So mesmerizing & beautiful! Loved it. Thanks so much for sharing.

Gorgeous cinematography...very Terrence Malick! Are you a visual professional of some kind, or just a really proficient hobbyist? 8)

Thanks. Enjoyed it very much. I got a special kick out of the herd of goats in Coral Bay.

Thanks everyone! It was fun putting together, I still have many, many more clips that never fit into the 10 minute song frame, such as underwater video like my octopus footage, or the Annaberg bush cats, etc.

mrscaptainjay, thanks. I'd love for you to blog it, that's awesome!

lark22, thank you too, I'm no pro... I don't think? I do consider myself a visual artist though. I had the idea for this video when I got there because the song fit the way I was feeling when I was observing nature and taking in STJ.

DaveS007, yes the villa walk throgh video (STJ villa cribs) soon cometh. I wanted to tackle this one 1st. I'll be done this weekend most likely.

Thanks for all the positive feedback everyone! It makes me feel swell :wink: :D 8)
