First Salt - Nice Tank

[bkv1997]

Just noticed your signature.

I watched the entire video.... would like to know how you did this and potentially do something similiar for my tank.

And a beautiful job!!! The music is great too! I need that as my screen saver at work (need to relax there more than at home!!!).

Wish I got paid to sit and relax watching screen savers!

Thanks! I did it on a whim and without a tripod. That was the first time I've tried making a movie. I got a new MacBook for work and noticed the iMovie. It wasn't too hard to do, but it is time consuming. I wouldn't mind helping you create one for your tank. But we'd probably have to make a little shorter than the first one I did. I ended up cutting a lot to meet the YouTube size requirement. It's fun though.

Bryan, just remind me to smack you next time I see you. I don't get to see the screen savers often, just if someone comes into my office and talks to me for more than 15min (my computer goes to screen saver at that point). They don't let me out of my office very much....

And we should video Brandon's tank or Bryan's. Mine isn't too impressive right now other than being big. I really need to do some aquascaping. Too bad I have no taste in decorating....

You used a regular digital camera for your video? Not even a video camera to do it? I thought I heard you say that. I've got a tripod and a video camera if that would help. I know Brandon has the whopper big deal camera. I would guess that it would have a video function on it, but I'm not sure.

I just my still camera - a Canon PowerShot G9. I have a tripod, just didn't use it. LOL It was just a "first effort" kind of project. I'm up for trying again. Just let me know. Or if someone else shots the video (MPEG data I think) and sends it to me, I'll piece together the movie.
