The Kingdom - Trailer

Trailer of video shot in Saudi Arabia with a Kodak Zi8 as a teaser to my return visit in February which will be shot with a set of Nikon D7000 DSLR cameras.

This is a test of iMovie 11, a cheeky sense of humor and what I could put together in around ten minutes with no real direction.

What format did you use to record? WVGA or 1080p? Because using 1080p it came out really choppy on my imovie

@TheAmes5 1080p. I didn't have any issues with choppy video unless shooting at 60fps. The faster the frame cycle, the more likely you will have choppy video, it's more of an effect than an issue (when people want it).

It is actually why many filmmakers prefer 24fps that traditional film provides, smoother, less choppy. Most modern cameras shoot at 30p or 60i so, always a little choppier. Look at many action films, might notice choppiness there. Likely due to the high FPS, probably around 120.
