Man, this was fun! Fun to shoot and fun to edit! After a month or so of chopping away at commercial gigs, this was just some good ‘ol fashion candy coloured, idealistic fun!
It’s getting ridiculous. This no shooting thing is getting to me so much, I’m getting all melancholic and down. I decided I needed to cut something last night and so I obsessively hunted through the footage banks from the last couple of months, (in which not a hell of a lot of fun, non work-related, shooting has gone on! :/) and pulled what shots I could into a sequence.
There was a criteria – Blue skies, good weather, fun times. . .that was it. . .This, friends, was an exercise in positivity. In trying to see past the drab and dreary world outside to the vibrant, colourful world it can be in the right light.
Leaving the house, we drove straight towards the Hinterland. Threatening rainclouds hung low over the hills, ready to disgorge the contents of their swollen bellies. It wasn’t looking good, but come hell or high water (or summer rain storms) I was going to shoot Kondalilla falls. . .After a rocky start with a sun shower hitting us just as I was about to film the views from halfway up the mountain, everything went smooth as silk. . .
A couple of mates, free reign on the back 9 and a healthy dose of glorious sunshine! Is there a better way to start Grand Final day? No, there probably isn’t!
As light tickled the Eastern horizon, the 500D clicked to life, it’s inner-circuitry firing at synapse speed to capture this fine display of colour and light.

Had to go back to Final Cut Pro 7 to work on an old project. It sucked. 6 months in with #FCPX and I couldn't stand to go back to that!10:11:31 AM January 19, 2012from TweetDeck
