LYW! Great footage as usual. Was that another sequence with the Sigmonster?

Still trying to work out how you go from the Ken Burns effect on a still and then into the HD movie - nice effect. G

Thanks. I already sold my Sigmonster a few months back. This was with a 500 f4 IS + Canon 1.4x TC, on a bean bag, with IS running.

Re Ken Burns effect, you have to take some stills at about the same time you film the footage. Then look for a frame in the footage where the subject's pose is similar to the still so you can blend both easier.
