Editing Tricks for Amateur Vacation Video #41


Africa 2002:  Victoria Falls

The hotel doorman gives some outrageous directions; next thing you know we are overlooking the massive falls.  Water mist, rainbows, droplets on the lens.  Wish I had an HD camera ten years ago!
Slow motion effects are effective, and Beethoven's music is perfect.  This is a nice little video.

Lessons Learned:
Steady the camera, be patient, allow the beauty to unfold.

Suggestion:
Take your eye off the viewfinder and appreciate the natural wonder.  Tomorrow's technology will allow consumers to capture in even higher definition, but it will never replace your own eyes, ears, and memory!
