Disney 09 July Vacation from Brad Schaefer on Vimeo.
Here's the home video from our vacation to Disney World last year. It was Michelle, me, my parents, my brother and his wife. This video is about 26 minutes long, and we're not so vain that we actually expect anyone besides us to watch it or like it. We made it for our own personal memories, but we're happy to share if you have the time and inclination.
I got a video camera for Christmas in 2008 and started taking it along on vacations. When we just had photos to worry about, vacation photos were put into a simple slideshow that wasn't much different than the old time Carousel. But videos present a bigger challenge to develop a mixed media presentation. I got a lot of the pieces in place and toyed with iMovie to make a proof of concept, then sat Michelle down and told her to get to work. She spent a lot of time on it and it came out great.
If anyone likes this, I can share a video from our December Disney trip. And Michelle needs to begin working on the video from our skiing trip because we've got more vacations coming up and she's going to fall behind if she puts it off any longer.
