3 Clips are Rapid

I've had these clips for a while and was struggling with releasing them.  It wasn't because I felt they were technically unworthy, but I've realized I won't be able to post 100% unique clips each time around.  It would be more beneficial to the community, to offer up a variety of clips for each visual situation.  In other words, I really need to get over myself and think about what you guys might need that would help you tell your stories.  It's a constant learning process, and I value your input greatly. 

These were sitting on my drive ever since I released these waterfall clips. I had gone out that day with a specific purpose to capture long exposure shots, but since I was out I also grabbed some real time footage.   The first waterfall clip below is pretty close to a real time shot of the second long exposure waterfall clip I had previously released.  Hope you like them and I hope they are useful someday!

1 Clip is on the Line

I'm glad I had my camera on me while I was driving through the city the other day.  I thought a shot like this might be useful to some visitors who use my footage for documentary purposes.  The "shoes on a power line" shot is a nice way to depict both rural and urban area adolescent culture.  I also really appreciate having clips in my toolbox that make good use of negative space.  I find it to be very helpful if you need something for an opening sequence, titles, or credits.

In doing some research for this post, I found out the practice of throwing tied shoes over power or telephone lines is referred to as "shoefiti".  The explanation behind why shoes end up on these wires is varied based on region and culture.  The Wikipedia entry is actually a very interesting read. Feel free to check it out here: Shoe Tossing
