Video element added. Ironically, this was the easiest element to add and embed in the Powwow story. While the video is not all that I had hoped it would be I have learned ways to improve for my next video effort. Overall, I enjoyed the video element. I look forward to telling more stories across converged medium.
Today I believe in media gods. No not Viacom, Comcast or even Rupert Murdoch, powers far greater. The gods, who when feeling generous, bestow on an mere mortal the perfect shot, a sound bite, or sometimes if your really lucky both. But unfortunately, those gods were not with me today when I went to shoot some background footage at the mission. I managed to get some footage, before I ran out of space on my memory card. As if that was not enough when I was packing up to go the church bells rang out, all very poetic and would have been great if I would have caught it on tape. Aghhh!!! Today the media gods did not smile on me…

Reviewing video I took of the Powwow I noticed that I shoot most of the footage at an odd angle. I see two possible fixes turn the computer screen so that I don’t get a stiff neck or edit the clips in final cut. Aghhh, there is always some small hurdle….

Arrived at the site early, found a good seat. Weather was much better today, sunny! Was able to get several good photos. I shot some video that needs to be reviewed, not sure about the quality yet. Did get a snippet of audio but the quality is questionable as well. Hopeful there is something salvageable. Consider this day a success.
