This is my Life

Sunday, February 12, 2012

After many late night frustrations learning Sony Vegas Pro and trawling through about 6 hours of footage, here is an insight into my life- what I do, where I go and the people I love here in Paris. I am slowly learning the art of video making, it is an endeavour that requires a lot of patience - however, it is very cathartic to weave together a montage of everyday life fragments into something more whole and concise. And most of all, this video is a tribute to how happy I am and an ode to all the people and passions that make Paris the dream it is for me.

I love this video. You always make great videos.

I've never tried Sony Vagas i've always used Final Cut Pro. It's only available on Mac but if you have one it's definitely recommend it :)

I guess if I took peeps money and never send them the goods....I'd be living large too. I would hate to live with the bad karma though. It DOES catch up....good luck with all that. Scam.

I am so sorry you never received your order, send me an email at audreyrogers@live.com and I will arrange a refund. I stay on top of orders, but the French Postal System is often so unreliable, but ofcourse, if you never received your item(s), I will happily offer you a refund.

Laura said...

I like the result, your friends and you look very fun. I like how your voice fit in the video, it's one of those cool voices of people in movies.

I love this video :) I like to hoard moments too <3 I'm an American living in London and I feel it's finally my chance to be me. I don't know why I cared so much before about what people thought of me, but here no one bats an eye if you've got a crazy outfit on or whatever... It's great to do what you love. <3
