    Great video. I loved all of it, and the wonderful colors. If I was to change any of it, it would not have the marina in there. I love marinas and boats but without a single subject or a focus, the scanning did not work for me.

    Otherwise I wish I was there. The angles of the rocks and water were great along with the single persons shadow. Nice touch (if it was intentional) : )

    It was not intentional when shot, but I left it in during editing. :)

    Nice video! What profile did you used to make the .mp4? The 1080p-30.bat one? I did that one on my video but the WMV version got better, the .mp4 one got too blocky, but yours didn't. Thanks!
  • Eugenia Loli-Queru 6 months ago
    I used 720p Vegas Pro 8, not 1080p ffmpeg. FFmpeg is only a good idea if your video editor does not support MP4 exports, like VMS doesn't. WMV export via Vegas/VMS is extremely slow too, FFmpeg's encoder is 3 times faster than WMV on Vegas.

    Do you have any guide of exaclty how you did compress this?
    Thanks

    Wonerful video. I really like the quality of light around 2:14.

    Very well done! You are quite talented. I liked it a lot.

    I am trying to figure out Vegas Pro 8 during the 30 day trial and whether I should stay with PC based equipment and software or if I should make the move to an IMAC.

    Yes
    I would reduce the contrast a little and the compressor has a hard time with the waves, especially at 1:48-1:55
  • Eugenia Loli-Queru 6 months ago
    Which compressor? Vimeo's? Vimeo re-encodes at ~2mbps, so there's nothing I can do to fix that, it's low bitrate. The only thing I can do is make sure that my export at 5mbps doesn't have the problem.

    I noticed the artefacts already in the .unk file.
    Vimeo greatly enhances the artefacts but as you say not much you can do about that ;-)

    From Jan-Sep 1967 I was stationed at the Presidio of Monterey going to school learning Chinese for the Air Force. On weekends I would wander the marinas, Cannery Row or the beach at Carmel walking up to Pebble Beach Golf Course and back. You brought back some great memories. Wonderful job!

    Beautiful HD video! I loved the water crashing on the rocks and the awesome sunset. Your video and the sound of the crashing waves with the music gave me goose bumps. You are very creative and talented!

    Not only is it wel-filmed but also very well edited. The music is perfect for your film. I admire your work.

    Eugenia, can I use this nice video to add some subtitles with spiritual sentences, just as I do in vimeo.com/636317? I would like it very much!

  • Eugenia Loli-Queru 5 months ago
    Hello Father Jorge, go ahead and re-use the video and/or the music. The video is licensed under the very liberal CC-BY 3.0 license, which allows you to reuse and remix it, as long as my credit roll stays in tact (I don't care much about my video not getting attribution actually, but the music is also licensed under the CC-BY and it is not my own music, so the music's CC-BY license asks for attribution).

    So in a nutshell (I hope I didn't confuse you), as long as the credit roll stays in tact, go ahead and reuse it and add the spiritual sentences! :)

    God I love the light at 2.40 after the wave crashes. Stunning colours, did you apply any FX or tweaks for the colours? Sorry if thats already answered above , i could'nt read everything.

    This has got to be one of the more Pro looking films I've seen with the HV20.
  • Eugenia Loli-Queru 5 months ago
    Thank you for the kind comment Toolance. Yes, as I wrote in the description, the video was "graded with Magic Bullet". Magic Bullet is a filter for many editors that let's you tweak the colors. This is not called color correcting (because correcting would be to just fix the white balance or fixing the camera's inability to capture the real view), but it's called color grading for making it different than it really was in plain view. All movies and most TV series are color graded.
