angling a video
If you are thinking of doing videos, figuring out how to make them work to share an idea or even sell a product (which might be you if you are say a musician, I am continuing to learn things that might help. I also hope you will share your learning process here as it is a process as anything in the creative arena is. It's part art and part craft.
So here's another of mine with something I learned from Diane Widler Wenzel, who has been doing her own videos on creating art which I hope she will be sharing with more people soon. The following is checking out whether her tip on the angle of the camera was something more I needed to learn to make my own videos all they can be.

Fox Story
We've had quite an adventure with the fox family and while we are still unsure how many foxes or the whole story of what has been going on, I put some photos together into the following slideshow. To share your space with wild animals is a bit of a thrill even as it has some drawbacks. It's not really healthier for the creatures or the humans. Still, having a respect for wild animals is part of how we feel it's worthwhile to protect nature.

The Nurturing Land
Creating photo trailers has been a lot of fun for me especially since photography is such an important part of my life. This video blends together my digital paintings based on photographs I have taken with music and depicts a tiny part of what I feel regarding the importance of nature in my life.
When I originally created this video, I used the song 'Colors of the Wind,' which says it so well but it is never going to make it onto YouTube as what are the odds of getting permission to blend it with my art? $$$$ more than I have-- at the least if it could even be done. I like this music though from JewelBeat as it does give some of the majesty I feel regarding nature. Nice for the last day of May.
