green tea, hd, contests, scholarships and other fantastic endeavors.

A few weeks ago, my friend Cathy asked me to help her with a video. She said it was for a contest for her fiance, to get a scholarship. The video was to be a short video about the benefits of drinking whatever sort of tea you wanted to make it about, in a kind of funny, quirky, downbeat, creative style. That night I wrote up a little script, which was then heavily shortened, both for time and content.

Anyway, the final product has been up on youtube for almost a week, and has gotten quite a bit of attention.

I want to tell you how excited I am for this video. Definitely one of my favorite videos to work on, even on par with fatman cometh. However, what makes this video so special to me is that it is my first ever work done in HD, which of course, is going to be how I edit all my videos from here on out, unless I somehow end up working with real film.

I'm kind of taking a little break, but I still have a few more videos that need editing, so I'll do that soon. Please watch the green tea video, because it is for a contest and the number of views is factored into judging.

And if you like what you see, and want a copy for yourself, ask me to make you a dvd of some videos and I'll make you one.

Enjoy.




peace. love.
