I have experimented with videoblogging mostly to get the feel for using digital video editing tools. I completed a few projects based around a theme: Davis Bike Club's March Bicycle Madness. In March, club members pledge to ride miles. The club pays a set amount per mile, per rider, and all of the money goes to buy helmets for children. There is a contest to see who can ride the most miles in March. The winner often puts in over 3000 miles in that one month. I thought it would be fun to document some of those rides and riders, while participating in the rides myself. All of the videos are collected, along with a few others, at blip.tv. The link is below. Please note: Not all videos are mine. The three most recent (two labeled Feather River and one Jarbo Gap) are unedited footage taken on a digital camera by a fellow rider on a long ride. The footage is nice, but the howling wind soundtrack is pretty unpleasant. |
