Two new themed montages Can't Post
Would love to share these with you.

I received many emails requesting I share, and contribute more on this forum, so with a little trepidation, here are two themed montages that were shown at events last night.

I hope you enjoy them as much as I did making them.

Olivia's Sweet 16 Montage,
and Jazzi's Bat Mitzvah Montage, based on HBO's "Entourage".

He David,
Thanks for sharing. Must say the bonds 007 montage was pretty slick. I liked the rated R version though this thread is about the sweet 16 and bat mizvah. Love the creative mind behind it and use of 3D in all your montages. It's very different from what I usually do and have seen. Thanks

Monday







See you guys later. Much love

David thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed the Sweet 16 Montage. Particularly the last part where you had the film scrolling along the bottom. Very nicely done. I cannot comprehend the work that must have been involved.

David, as always, your stuff is amazing. It’s cutting edge and should inspire anyone in this business.
Your seminar in Philly last year was great, and it’s great to see that in just a few months you can show us all another sample of incredible work.

Stellar as always... You get some fun jobs to shoot.. I need to work on getting more business that lets me play more like that.. I also love the styling of your blog... If possible, can you share the bitrate you encode you flvs at and who you host with? They played flawlessly...

Thanks for sharing. Smile

Cheers,
Scott

Thanks Scott.

I convert a quicktime to flv. via Adobe CS3 Encoder.
I cannot upload flv. files to my Word Press blog anything larger than 30MB, so if it is a short 5 minute video I use Flash 8, High Quality (700kbps) De-interlaced and cropped to 427x240.

The Montage of Jazzi was 12 minutes long, so i had to reduce the quality to 150kbps. I don't think it looks very good actually.

My host is Media Temple, inc.

Yes, I agree on the one but I watched a bunch and they all seemed to play without a hitch and most looked good!

Cheers,
Scott
