Things are a bit boring here in the South Eastern part of Oregon. The weather is a bit too "western" for fun flying, and I have finished my Annual, so the next best time killer is experimenting with videos. I do like to make them, and of course would like to make them as enjoyable as possible. Of course I am limited by my equipment which is just a normal computer purchased at Costco. My video program is Movie Maker that comes standard on Windows 7. It does not have the ability to lay down sound tracks, so I have depended on what ever music I can get away with putting with it and captions to try to tell the story. I noticed the other day that there is a sound recording function that works on my wife's lap top, and after much trial and error I was finally able to get a sound recording that I thought  I could add on the sound track, and narrate the video as I recorded it. To do this I chose a video that I had made last year that had music already added on to it. In other words the video was already made and I reloaded it into the "Movie Maker" as raw video. That allowed me to add "music" to the video. 

The recorded sound track volume was quite a bit lower than I would have liked, so I had to reduce the background music quite a bit to be able to hear the narration at all. Don't forget to reduce the volume of your speakers when you are done viewing it or you will blast yourself out of your chair the next time you use the sound.


I would welcome any thoughts that any of you might have as to whether this is worth the effort.

Larry,

I think the narration is an improvement. It's nice to get a little geography/history lesson while watching your videos. Your part of the country is so different from mine. I vote thumbs up.

Nice video, but I wish the music wasn't in there. Very hard to hear your voice.

The voice over narration adds to the enjoyment of the video. Pointing out
tidbits of info as your flight progresses makes the video much more
enjoyable.

Must have been extremely windy because I never did see Arty. Guess she got
blown away on the Alvord. Wink

Arty was in her tent reading, as she is wont to do when the weather is bad. Smile I considered changing the opening screen, but had fought the thing for quite some time, so took the easy way out and left it. I('ll turn the background down a bit more the next one that I try. Thanks for the thoughts everyone,
Larry

Good video Larry! I'm not at all familiar with that part of the country and it's interesting to see that.

I am also a newbie at making videos. I got a few responses on the ice landing at Lake Mille Lacs. I have a long way to go as far as improving them. I think the interest is there when I can make a story out of it and try to show what I saw at a fly-in. It helps to have a theme in mind and stick with that theme. More and more HD videos are being uploaded to youtube (I don't know how they afford all that digital space) and I sure enjoy watching them over the old ones.

Spring is on its way and more flying and vids to come ...

Brother Cottrell:

IMHO, your effort was highly successful… and enjoyable. The sound track and narration both played well in this one and in
the Pillars of Rome which followed it. The audio was clear and at the perfect level in both.

By all means, continue fooling around with that camera and your wife’s computer… Looking forward to your next video.

If you want to have a look at one of Google's data centers, look up Google data center at the The Dalles in Oregon. It's pretty much next door to the power plant on the Columbia river.

I agree with the others, Larry. Your latest video had perfect sound levels.

Another good thing about your narration is that those of us who have never met you in person now know what you sound like. With Kolbers from so many different places, with so many different accents, it adds another dimension worth having.
