For another service project, Mike and I bought a DVD Recorder. I have recorded all of the family videos that I have to DVD. Now I need to find a good editing software. I used a trial version of one to show you a few clips. Sorry that there is a water mark in the middle of the picture for a bit. I have spent WAY too many hours trying to find a program that was as user friendly that didn't have a watermark. So for now, know that the whole DVD doesn't have this watermark. This was only b/c I tried to clip pieces to show here on the blog. Enjoy! I love you all! (Tiff...sorry! The video that I spent hours converting for web, was from before you were born. I have some from After you were born that we can watch when I come.)I am glad I am doing this now. You will see that some of the videos are starting to deteriorate pretty bad. Merry Christmas!
Love,
Mitzi
AWESOME!!!! Those videos were so cool! Amy acts just like a blend of Darcy and Dixie. And Tara Mei Sr. was so cute!
ReplyDeleteMitzi, after we chatted yesterday, I looked into this while at Best Buy. I was wrong that prices are way expensive. They seem to have come way down over the past few years and some companies have come out with lighter versions like Photoshop Elements.
I loved Pinnacle Studio(previously known as Sony Vegas Studio) when I worked at MDP. They have a version for $50 and another for $100.
Adobe does have a video editing product called Adobe Premiere, which has an Elements version. It costs $79 new, but I bet you might be able to upgrade your PS Elements to the combined PS/Premiere elements for less. I don't know anything about it, but I have used most of their other products, so it should be good. Plus, it should work well with PS Elements.
Holy cow! these are awesome. It's so much fun to watch these. It brings up stories from Chuck that I have never heard before. It's fun to watch him remember those times with his fun sisters and cousins.
ReplyDeleteLani,
ReplyDeleteI did bring all the videos that I have burned so far. Including the one where Grandma is very Lucid that I was telling you about.
These were SO great! I think Mit wins for most die hard. I'm sure this is extremely time consuming- but SO worth it Mit. Thanks so much for taking the time. Tiff and I watched and laughed together.
ReplyDeleteLoved these! They made me more and more excited to see Tara Mei this week! :)
