vid notices...

kindreds_expats (aka Across the Salt people) - the Helo/Athena vid for that first (and, you know, last) vid challenge at Kindreds is about 80% finished. I may even have a final draft ready for beta by the weekend, since I had an epiphany this morning of what clips to use for the last 20 seconds (out of about 50 remaining).

I'd be happy to beta a vid for you. I've only done it once (for Chamalla) but I'm pretty good at catching technical errors since I tend to obsess over them in my own vids:)

Here's the download link: http://www.sendspace.com/file/ib1jpa

Thanks for taking a look at it for me! :D

Aw, crap. I forgot to tell you that my laptop doesn't read avi files. Anytime I've tried to install the codec, my comp. gets all wonky. I don't suppose you have it saved in any other format?

[sabaceanbabe]

I don't, but if you install the VLC player (free from http://www.videolan.org), it plays just about anything, including avi, so you don't have to mess with codecs.

Downloaded the player and it worked great. Thanks for the link!

Onto the vid...Overall, I thought it was fantastic. I loved the fade effects/transitions you used. I only saw two teeny, tiny little things:

@ :13 = thought I saw an odd flash. Didn't seem long enough to be intentional so maybe there was a flaw in one of the clips?
@ 1:38 = the fade/transition between the two clips goes completely black for a second. Not a big deal but just something I notcied.

That's it. I know that's probably not all that helpful but in all honesty, everything else worked beautifully:)!
