So yeah, if ya'll haven't noticed lately, I've been posting quite a few test videos with clips from the videos recorded using my new toy, my Canon HG20 HD Camcorder. Since I'm still learning, be expecting more test videos.

In this video, I stuck the cam on a tripod and put it in the back seat. The original video is so much sharper, but I wanted to test out some color correction/manipulation in my editing program. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the clouds, especially during the last portion of this video.

I use:
Canon HG20 HD Camcorder
Nimbus 2000 Tripod
FCE4.0HD - Mac FTW
And an Asian Driver (this one isn't that dangerous on the road - BAHAHAHA!)

Anyways special requests/recommendations, let me know! So let me know what you think!

[UncommonAsian]

@BruneiRollingstuff Sorry for the uberly late response. I forget the name of the song, but it's one of the tracks that come on a mac - I think you need iLife 08 or 09 (specifically garageband I think).

man i really want this cam but i never see really good color correction videos like the hv30 vids why is that?

[UncommonAsian]

Depends on the camera and what look the person doing the editing is trying to pull off or experiment with. Also depends on the video media (hg20=strictly digital, hv30=hd dv media). Depends on the editing software someone has. Apparently it depends on various things.. ;)
