Student of The Way - Karate Practice (And Editing Practice)

This video was made purely for editing practice, and is simply a few selected clips from random footage of myself which I had on an old camera. While the video was uploaded to 1080p, it wasn't filmed with an HD camera, so HD quality might not be there. Sorry.

The footage is mixed with clips from 2009-2011. Some you might have seen on my channel before, others I've never shared. Most of them are just me practicing kata or techniques. There is a little bit of tournament footage from the Yoshukai Superfights Tourney in 2009. There is also a lot of sparring footage with my friend, Chris Carter. Most of that I put toward the end. The snow scenes were filmed Christmas morning, 2010. Very rare that it snows in Annsiton, Alabama, and was amazing that it snowed on Christmas morning of all days. I think the rest of the front yard footage was filmed in both April and May of 2011. The dojo footage is from September 2011. Oh, and the cat you see walking in the yard is name Boots ^_^

The music was mixed by me using various pre-made loops provided by GarageBand '11. I'm not a composer, and the track's probably not all that great, but I was going for something techno-ish that started off steady and built itself up to something upbeat... Eh, I'll work on it :P lol

It's my first real video edit, and was really made just for editing practice. :) Hope to improve my editing skills and make even more videos soon! I edited the video itself using iMovie '11.

Hope you enjoy, it's just for fun! :D

love the practising in the snow! I remember you saying that is very rare in your area. what did you do to the cat hahaha...

[JasonRainwater]

@ShaolinWuhunHelan - Thank you!! ^_^ Yes, I was so happy I filmed myself training in the snow last year. I didn't have any intention of uploading it on youtube, I just wanted to capture the rare snow, and thought I'd do so while training in it! :D I never knew I'd be posting some clips from it on youtube one year later! As for the cat, his name is Boots, he lives here ^_^ He was probably wondering when I was going to finish so he could go inside and eat, haha...

Looks quite similar to the yoshukai I have seen and learned so far, though I am just a cruel beginner ... and nunchaks are forbidden in Germany, therefore I dont know this tool ... but it looks quite swifty! ;)

@Tossek86 - Thanks for watching and commenting! Happy you could recognize some of the Yoshukai katas I was doing. Most of the footage in this video I had no intentions to make a video with, but I needed some footage to practice editing and used some old stuff I had. When I get a better camera, my newer stuff will hopefully look much better ^_^
