Last month saw the launch of this blog, and I linked to quite a few movies, which I think show video editing style and flair, and which are good examples of what can be achieved with a little effort and the right equipment.
At the end of each month I intend to do a summary of movies and videos featured as an easy reference.
October Movies:
Kangaroo Near Miss videoA very short movie (about 17 secs), with very little editing, but shows that with a bit of extra sound you can spice up any clip a little.
Rollercoaster videoExcellent editing work, with great use of music to create excitement and atmosphere.
Karting videoOnce again, a video which shows just how much difference the right music choice can make. Action is well timed with the music.
Baxter's Day OutA very simple little movie, which shows that even without any real story, a simple "beginning, middle, end" construction works well. Lots of different viewpoints. My favourite is the under-car shot.
Scary Halloween videoA great selection of sounds and images to sum up a fun evening. Once again this is well edited to fit the music.
If you know of any movies you would like to see featured next month, or have anything of your own, let me know:
