Crazy Shaman Hikes the Pulpit Rock Trail in Nelson BC Canada (deep delta binaural)

clinton waller — Sun, 18 Sep 2011 20:54:15 +0000

I have climbed the Pulpit Rock and I have no sermon for you.

Technical Notes:

I shot these photos using a Nikon D5000 and a zoom lens. Selected photos were shined up and exported as an origami photo slideshow using Aperture 3.

Next I created a simple harmony chord track with a few little twists using GarageBand 11 and an M-AUDIO KeyRig 49. I exported my audio creation at CD quality to generate an .aif file.

iMovie 11 was used to merge the Aperture 3 photo slideshow, GarageBand 11 .aif audio track, and a tri-thalmic binaural beat frequency, said to stimulate the third eye.

The red headphones are new.. I finally found a good stock image and purchased some reprint rights and I feel good about this — supporting artists and keeping copyright content legit. I’ll let you wonder how I made that video effect but will let you know it can be done using only iMovie 11 and Mac OSX Snow Leopard’s Preview program.

May you be blessed..

a Visit to the Capitol Theatre in the City of Nelson BC

Nelson BC is a vibrant arts community nestled in the Selkirk mountains on the western arm of Kootenay Lake in the country of Canada. The Capitol Theatre features live performances and is definitely worth the visit..

Gratitude to Gisele from the Rhythmic Dimensions and the Fusion Dance.

Local Audio Content — if you’re from the Nelson BC area and wish to share your music with the world via the medium of quality high definition video let’s talk!

Technical Notes:

Shooting HD video in the dim lighting conditions of an indoor theatre can be challenging; fortunately the Panasonic AG-HMC150P HD video camera performs quite well at these kinds of venues as evidenced in this collection of HD video clips. We filmed these video sequences at 24 frames per second and discovered that iMovie ’11 is now capable of handling this frame rate — previously iMovie ’09 rejected 24 fps clips. The still photos in this video were shot using the Nikon D5000 under sunny conditions and shined up using Aperture 3.

Tourist Visits the Town of Trail in British Columbia

I went for a random road trip on Sunday and ended up in Trail BC for my first time ever — I guess that makes me a tourist! Here’s what I saw..

Trail BC is home to the largest non-ferrous lead and zinc smelter in the world!

These pictures were taken using a Nikon D5000 still camera and edited into this photo slideshow using Aperture 3. The choppy bridge video framing the photos was shot using an iPhone 4 and edited into the slideshow using iMovie 11.

Hippie visits Nelson BC on the shores of Kootenay Lake

clinton waller — Mon, 09 May 2011 01:59:25 +0000

Nelson BC (also known as Queen City) is rich with history and heritage buildings. Nestled on the side of the Selkirk Mountains and bordered by the crystal clear waters of Kootenay Lake, it’s obvious why Nelson is the Jewel of beautiful British Columbia.

Technical Notes:

This HD video is a collection of 50 select photos shot with a Nikon D5000 camera and telephoto lens. Aperture 3 was used to import and shine up the pictures and export the collection as a slideshow.

Next I used iMovie 11 to add StarBelt.com’s video tag at the end and to layer in a deep delta binaural beat frequency under the main audio soundtrack. The brainwave selected corresponds to stimulation of the crown chakra.

You can listen to more binaural beat frequency music for free here.

236 Bayside Landing Airdrie Alberta (photo slideshow)

clinton waller — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 19:14:18 +0000

Here is a photo slideshow created using Aperture v3.1.1:

Please contact Craig Sims to learn more about this Bayside property.

Story:

Craig Sims operated the still camera for this video shoot — a Nikon D5000. Selected photos were shined up a bit using Aperture v3.1.1. After adding a contact photo, a slideshow was created using Aperture again.. but how to add one video slide to the collection?

The answer to this was found via iMovie 11, which decreased the final video file size as well. One note of caution, do not choose to optimize the Aperture video when you import it into iMovie 11.. let it import as a raw copy and you’ll get the best quality on your final render.

Wishing you well, and happy =)

Renfrew Summer Flowers

CoverFlux arrangement of summer flowers in the Calgary community of Renfrew

CoverFlux is an interesting photo video generator with a limit of 25 photographs. The stills are displayed in alphabetical (usually numeric) order, which gave me the idea to create a strange little poem set to pictures of flowers. The music is a simple score I keyed up on my synth using GarageBand. Neat, eh?
