    Learning a lot about recording, editing, etc. It's a bit crude, but this is my first attempt at editing something and I've only had the camera for two days now. I've got a lot more to learn but figuring things out quick I guess.

    Enjoy!

    Looks good to me. I'm going to have to ask. What were the cedar posts for?

    Very good job! Sounds like you know what you're talking about. Regarding the overall video, the only thing I would look at doing would be shortening up your timelapse work segments. They seem to drag on a bit too long. Still very good, especially for being your first video.

    That was pretty entertaining. I like the fact that the plot was affordably and intelligently done. Hope to see more.

    Thanks for the feedback, and I agree with you 100% on the timelapse stuff. Right now the computer I have won't run anything other than MS Moviemaker, so my timelapse stuff kinda has to be the length of the music clips I've got access to. I couldn't figure out how to fade the sound track mid clip. I really need to get a better machine for editing so I can run Premiere Elements and also I need to get access to better stock music so I have better options for this stuff.

    Pretty much same issue here as well. I've decided to get a desktop which I will keep next to nothing program wise on and always keep files and such on an external HD to run off of...should allow better editing software without a HUGE cost for a true video editing set up. I was amazed at how cheap desktop options have become really. Running off my Acer laptop, not a high priced one either, has truly limited my abilities...

    I'll sell the cat for a good price if you like. I'll even include free shipping!

    Looks great! Nice video too. You look like a surgeon with the chainsaw in fast forward! Haha! I thought of something that might work cheap for a pull behind compactor for your quad. Maybe find one of those walking sod compactors you put water in and weld a hitch to it. Might be able to find a good used one at an equipment yard. Anyway great video and keep it up. Looking forward to the next one.

    Premiere Elements is a great next step. Looking forward to more videos.
