Post Your Videos Made With EDIUS

I spent a couple of days exploring Sarah's Creek which is located near Clayton, GA in the Chattahoochee National Forest. Needed some time to decompress. Best viewed in 2K or 4k if your monitor supports it.

Just watched this on my 4K tv. Looked really good Mark....as usuall. Now it's time to start considering HDR.

Thanks Jerry. I am learning about HDR.

Thanks for sharing Surfer. Nice camera work and image from the old 5D MKII.

Just got a chance to watch it, as I've been on the road. Great camera work, great editing and post, and the perfect musical score to tie it all together. A very nice film, Mark!!

Dance Promotional Video

Hello,

I have just uploaded a dance promo video I created for a local dance studio. I wanted to share this with the Edius community as I think it displays how well the Optical Flow feature is working. This feature has been very welcomed by me as it allows more options from source material.

This video was created from 720p60 footage shot at 1/60th shutter speed. A Majority of the clips are slowed down to a range of 25 to 50 with one or two all the way down to 7 ! For the most part it is free of any issues. Amazing to be able to film a show as usual and be able to create this side product from software only. Thanks Grass Valley for adding this capability to Edius

Everything was done with stock Edius outside of two transitions and the logo which was done in After Effects with element 3D. For you old timers, I used some of the "cinema Suite 3.0" effects which are still kickin' on my hard drive.

That was pretty cool looking.

The Cinema Suite 3.0 package was very similar to the Canopus Japan Project_55x5 Volumes 1-5....which was provide free. These came out around the release of 5.50.

A nice one. Criticism from my personal point of view (in terms of taste) would be the arrangement of some of the shots, but more than that the edit seems a bit fast-paced for that kind of theme and music. But again: it's only my taste. ;-)

[szekhely]

good point - I did wonder about that but the vendors had all donated their time and I was harassed into showing something from everyone who turned up. Can you elaborate on the arrangement of shots? I'm interested in what alternative choices I could have made. I do have to re-edit the same footage for a smaller expo they are running later in the year.

Yes, I know this kind of dilemma. The point could be to make those customers clear that going this way nobody wins. Some shots are so short that you can hardly recognize their content at all - and of course you would neither realize nor remember any of the brands/names that are shown. Therefore: fail for everybody. So they might choose: a 30-second-trailer that will not have everything inside, or a longer one that gives the audience time to see everything.

While you did some shots that look really nice, there are others where you seem to have missed attention on one or several of these questions:
1. How do I notice when my picture is inclined? (And the subquestion: when an inclined picture is called "art"?)
2. What is the (primary/secondary) subject I want to show - and what else therefore is unnecessary?
3. How does moving around the camera in 3D space and in relevance to my subjects influences the result as a 2D picture in terms of angles, spaces, perspectives etc.?

I reviewed some of the shots you made and did some marker graphics. For examples 3,4 and 6 I would have moved with the camera a little and by that changed the angle of shooting. This is hard to re-do with only a 2D picture, but hopefully you can see what I mean.

The upload is online until Sunday, Aug 12th, 3 p.m. European summer time:
