Zanziblur

I can't be sure, but I think I have a few loyalists who have been watching my blog, if only intermittently, more or less since it started. If you are one of those treasured few (I genuinely appreciate your persistence), you may remember a series of photos I showed of my trip to Zanzibar with a few friends. Well, around the time that those photos were posted, I began the frustrating endeavor of tweaking a few thousand photos to be strung together in a speed-show. Operating on a system that couldn't handle the photos, and a program that literally shut down every fifteen minutes due to some sort of error or overload, it took me a couple months to arrive at a finished product. I was suitably excited to export the final product and upload a little more noise onto the internet - only to have the bizarre and irreconcilable issue of the film's sequence de-syncing. Thinking the project an abject failure, I left the files skulking around the darker corners of my hard drive.

With my recent purchase of a computer more tuned to editing, I was able to solve in an afternoon the issue which had clouded the back of my mind for months. Anyway, I'm glad to finally show you the first 'video' project I've worked on. I hope you enjoy it.

*Side note - maybe don't watch this if you're prone to epileptic seizures.
