Fleet Street - Last Night

Doodling around with Adobe Premiere 9

On December 3, we travelled to Stanford for the holiday performance by the Fleet Street singers.  The show, entitled A Christmas Carol, was a delightful mix of video, skits, comedic songs, and serious music.


I was fortunate to arrange my camera on a balcony ledge where I could capture the entire performance.  While setting up, I also recorded parts of the warm-up.


Here is part of the warm-up.  I've used it to experiment with Adobe Premiere 9, which I'm thinking of using to edit AVCHD video.  This particular video exploits a cartoon-look filter that creates, I think, an interesting effect.  I'm also learning to use simple titles, as seen here.
