It took far too long to get this first AfterEffects composition done. I believe I rendered it at least 3 or 4 times. First the footage was too choppy, then I discovered my settings were wrong. I fixed the settings and tired a different clip. While I ended up discarding that one too (once again, the footage jerked too much--it probably wouldn't have been very noticeable except for the words moving over the top of it), I learned how to flip the footage, so it wasn't wasted time. Anyway, I finally finished it, rendered it and put it into the timeline. The next piece--the title.
Welcome to the Director's Blog. Here I will periodically post updates concerning my projects. I am a relative newcomer to the whole exciting world of filmmaking (or in my case, videography), and working on my first real independent projects. There is nothing quite so exciting as seeing a story come alive under your finger tips!
