Decided to create some shorts from my Thanksgiving trip to San Francisco.
The first one is called Alcatraz: http://twurl.nl/hidhn8

Used the VIVIDRGB preset.
All hand held, would have loved to have had my fluid head.

Nice work. Pretty stable too.

Thanks! The first two shots were really unstable so I brought them into After Effects and calmed them down. AE can really do some fun stuff!

Hi Scott, I really enjoyed that; the handheld camera was fine. Also, your choice in music was well-suited to the video; what is it?

Scott Gold · January 15th, 2009, 10:36 AM

Thanks for the comments! The music is by James Newton Howard, great composer. It's from the Lady in the Water movie.
The music didn't exactly fit so I had to mix the music a little bit, but I think it works.

Scott, what NLE are you using and what font was the credits? Very nice work! Thanks for sharing it.

Scott Gold · January 15th, 2009, 06:33 PM

Thanks Rob! I used PP and AE CS3. PP for edit, titles, sound and basic color correction and AE for stabilization and crop. The font is Kozuka Gothic Std.

Nice job - great job actually for being handheld. Loved what you did with the color grading and music too.
