I remember back when I was 12, I learned playing guitar for the first time. By the time I learned it, I became addicted to it and came to love this hobby. I went from school battle of the bands to professional bands.
But, sometime in 2006, I stopped playing guitar to the point that I can barely play anything. That was the time when I became addicted to computers, particularly browsing the internet. While I was watching some videos on YouTube, I found this:
This video caught my attention. This has started the firework. I gotta do something like this! I said to myself. So I browsed online for a perfect camera that shoots HD. And then I watched Jared Abrams's videos about HDSLR's. I became addicted to his videos about camera preps and stuff, and it came to my mind that I need to buy one of those. So I bought a Canon EOS 600D, an intermediate-level DSLR capable of shooting HD movies (1080p) at 24 fps. The price was quite a pain in the ass, but it's worth it.
But way back then before I bought a DSLR, I already shot some action videos with my brother's cellphone, which was a Nokia X3-02 with 5 megapixels.
I wanted to use Final Cut Pro for video editing, but I cannot afford anymore a Mac, so I used Sony Vegas Pro for editing footage and Adobe AE CS4 for visual effects. I'm going to show you my video editing workflow for the next posts, so stay tuned.
I first shot the video "Expired Unlimited Text" with my DSLR, so it has a little bit good quality. I wasn't aware of the proper focusing, correct exposures and stuff, but it turned out pretty well.
