My son and I made another trip to the aquarium with camera in hand.

All shot with a Sony HDR-SR1 with the stock lens. Transfered into Vegas Pro 8 at 1080i and output at 720p, MP4 created by MPEG StreamClip.

The music is from the artist Aphex Twin, the album is "Drukqs" (2001). I mixed 2 songs, First is "Hya Scullyas Lyf Adhagrow" then it mixes into "beskhu3epnm"

    BTW, is the SR1's lens able to do macro? The HV20 loses focus if I zoom in to aquariums.
  • youdiejoe plus 2 years ago
    Yes, just the stock lens. I place the camera directly against the glass of the exhibit. I do have some zoom but not much.

    captivating capture and well composed.... I really get even the personality of that sea hourse, he's so humble and graceful. Did you compose the music yourself? I love it when the recording goes really distant like at 2:07 with that amazing shoot of multiple mans of war it's powerful.
  • youdiejoe plus 2 years ago
    Thanks!

    I did not compose the music. The music is from the artist Aphex Twin, the album is "Drukqs" (2001) I mixed 2 songs, First is "Hya Scullyas Lyf Adhagrow" then it mixes into "beskhu3epnm"
  • michael.marianek plus 2 years ago
    WOW that's a surprise! I guess I should listen harder and more through the entire album, that definitely misses the more stereotypical sound of Aphex Twin. Thanks for the response. don't waist your finger muscle strength replying.
