New achievement: video editing

Standard

I always wanted to learn video editing, but as usually I was not able to dedicate any time to learn it until I had something that absolutely necessarily needed to be done. We had to shoot a video about Zonio team for Wayra application. So to keep it super simple – we shot a stop motion animation using iMotion HD  (love the remote trigger feature – using second phone to trigger picture taking), recorded our own sound effects using WavePad (don’t like it much as it looks and behaves as desktop app when on iOS … equals is too complicated) , edited sound is Audacity and edited video in iMovie. So here is my first clip …

Even with limited time for it, I started to like it :) My next project will be to edit a clip with our freeride footage form Krippenstein in last March.

1st “Great bike ride” in Budweis

Standard

The very first “Velka Budejovicka Cyklojizda” happened yesterday. I was surprised how many people were attending even when it was first time. Stylish outfits, kids, fixes, unicycles, high wheelers … you name it. It was praticularly nice to be able to cross the traffic lights on reds as this was the way I (and everybody else too) was riding in Zurich for last two months. Just one way to work was a few times on the sidewalk, couple of one way streets in wrong direction, sometimes on tram rails, going on red and maybe much more.
