I'm excited. The other day, I created a video collage of my family--gathering several pictures that were taken over the past several years and putting them together into a slide show, complete with a soundtrack as well as captioning overlay for the lyrics of the song. The lyrics were so fitting as well as the tone of the music and well.. it's a pretty special piece that I made. I hope it lasts forever so that when my kids grow up, they'll have this piece and say that "Daddy made this when we were young." With everything all digital, there's no reason to believe that the stuff we're making can be destroyed.
It was fun and challenging to lay down the tracks and time the captions. I really enjoyed it though and upon thinking further, I realize that with the vlogging revolution that the Deaf Nation is experiencing right now, it's only fitting that I dive into this and make myself useful with digital video. I even looked up courses at the community college to see what class(es) I can take in digital video editing and etc.. there might be a class I can take for free since I teach ASL at this very same college.. I'm also going to make a proposal to my supervisor to let me create a video greeting in ASL for our program's webpage.
Anyways, I'm on a roll with video and I'm searching around for new ideas.
Aloha,
BF
