You Tube video

allachie9 · 05-21-2017, 08:56 AM

I hope nobody minds a bit of self - promotion here !

I've just created a short video sequence of some of my 'Weather Watcher' images, put them to music and uploaded to you Tube. This is the first time I've attempted anything like this, so I'd appreciate any feedback from you all.
As some of you may know I subscribe to the BBC Weather Watcher' Programme here in the UK and the BBC occasionally use my images to illustrate the weather in this part of the World.

The video runs for just under 7 minutes and is best viewed full screen and in HD.
This link should open it in HD, but if not you can change to HD with the 'gear-wheel' bottom right of screen.

It is just an experiment and a conversion from the original .exe file, created using PicturestoExe, to an avi.
So as you can probably appreciate there may be a little loss of quality. I may have to seek out a better way to prepare the file to upload.
Thanks.

Some nice images there! I'd just shorten up the top of the intro a bit. 15 sec is a long time to get to the first image. I like to skip a few bars of music to get to the fuller stuff, just not too soon. It seems a bit too long until we are into the "action". I'm a professional film and tv editor by the way. I do this 10hrs a day.

Just some feedback...I only watched for 10-20 sec and saw that its more of a slideshow (not video) and stopped.

Great photos tho
