Eternally Conflicted

I started shooting video earlier this year after I became a little frustrated with the glacial pace of the paper when it came to adopting new technologies for storytelling.

I finally just ended up buying a camera for my own use to practice on and when my legs eventually got steady while using it, I decided to document a trip we took to L.A. to visit my son Kai’s aunt.

Shot tons of footage and took lots of pics, then interviewed Debbie over the cell phone and put it all together. I tried to keep it short, but broke the two minute rule — oh, well. Rules sometimes need to be broken.

I’m still trying to find the perfect compression receipe, so my apologies for the length of time this may take to load. It’s almost better to hit play then pause and give it a chance to download; otherwise as it’s playing, the slider catches up to the end before it’s finished. The learning curve for publication on the internet is not really a curve but more like a high wall; if you put your mind to it and get creative, you can climb over it. But it will not be easy.
