Don't get me wrong, I really like the lighbulb logo I just don't think the breaking glass aspect of it sets the mood properly. I could live with it at the end after you have done your job of portraying your outstanding work. It's a violent event and it's too much about you and not your prospective client. They are looking for joy, harmony, beauty, a bursting lightbulb is to my mind the opposite of that.

the view I get, on the light bulb.
a light bulb is widley known to repersent an 'idea'. In this case the idea is so powerful it explodes the concept of ideas itself.
Thats my take on it.
I'm interested to know Matthew Ebenezer reason for using it ;)

Great work - I just wish I could see all of it. Every time the clip play the first few seconds of the jazz music then stops. I've tried deleting offline content to no avail.

Very nice, I love this piece, a young David Bonner (not that you are so old David, great work, These web boards are the best, that is essentially why I quit WEVA (not that it was bad) there is so much cutting edge stuff out there, these boards are where the most learning takes place, keep up the great job!

Hi all,

Thanks for the feedback. Not sure why the Mac users among us are experiencing troubles. WMV stuff sometimes doesn't go well on the Mac :(

David - the lightbulb is the logo for my business - goto http://www.ebenezerfilms.com/index-.php to see what I mean. The website is still being finished so please forgive the not-so-polished parts.

Yes, the lightbulb does represent ideas. Mainly from the angle of taking current ideas and ways of doing wedding videos/tv commercials (especially in my local area) and giving them a big shake up. That's it really - nothing too grandiose :)

Thanks,

Matthew.

David,

I put the Soulframe promo together from some old Hi-8 footage I had lying around plus some footage I took at a festival plus footage from a 5 camera shoot at that same festival.

The band came to me needing a short promo to send people in order to get more gigs/exposure etc ....

Thanks,

Matthew.

I look forward to seeing more from you and your 'bright ideas'
Take care
Dave
