Thank you, we tried our best for the time we had.

I just assumed that those shots were taken inside an underwater enclosure. This is, after all, the Under Water Over Land forum, so when I saw a water related shot, I figured the camera was well protected.

I don't know if I am shocked, appalled, or seriously impressed with your bravery.

But, you got the shot, right? That's the important thing!

Marco Wagner March 25th, 2007 03:33 PM

No underwater paq yet, cannot wait to get one of those! It was bravery mixed with determination to get a good shot, even at the cost of soaking my camera.

Marco,

Nice film. Favorite shot was at 1:16. Showing how big the rock formation was by the tiny little person walking on it was awesome. Really shows the scale of it.

You're braver than I am to take a camera out on a lake with no enclosure! :) Shots turned out nice though.

Have to agree about the zooms but other than that a good film!

Marco Wagner March 25th, 2007 08:12 PM

Thanks a bunch Kevin, that is one of my favorite scenes too. Looks like Mars almost.

Marco,

I watched them all friday night and now finally have some time to respond. I definitely have you in my top four short list!! I grew up in the southwest and very much enjoyed the scenery parts. I had to watch it a couple times!!
Great job.

Marco Wagner March 26th, 2007 09:54 AM

Thanks Dale!


I really tried to capture the spirit of some things you could do in town or just outside of town. Imagine if I would have been able to get out to some of my wonderfully beautiful spots up north!

Trond Saetre March 26th, 2007 09:58 AM

Marco, I enjoyed your video very much.
It was very nice to see the shots taken from the jetski.

The opening sequence was great. I liked it!
Nice scenery too, would be nice to go there someday.

Maybe you could have shortened the long zooms a little bit, but other than that, I think you did great.

Hi Marco:

Great film. Cool beginning. I have a taste for special effects and yours were great. I also thought some transitions were well done, like the one between the waverunner and the airplane... it made it look like the plane was coming out of the water. Nice! I also liked the sillouette of the little boy and father in the rocks.

Thanks for a great watch.

Thanks so much Cat!

I love to experiment with effects and transitions, but try not to go overboard (no pun intended). The jetski spray and plane transition is something I was hoping someone would appreciate, :-)

Thank you Trond,

You'd love it here in Arizona, just be sure to come in the winter, fall, or spring, LOL!

Haha, yeah your winter is probably like a nice summer day up north here in Norway.

Marco Wagner March 26th, 2007 01:09 PM

Yeah pretty unstable winters, sometimes as low as in the 20s F and as high as 90s F. That is what we saw in the last couple months.

Randall Allen March 31st, 2007 12:46 PM

That was a great look into your area. Not really anything that I can say that the others have not already said.

Thanks

Randy

Thanks Randy, I much appreciate those who appreciate. :-)
