Trying out iMovie. The features are easy to use for simple tasks, but audio/video sync editing is a pain!

Song: The Kid
Composed By: Dar Williams
violin by: Me (Yoshi D.)
Artwork at the end of the song by: Moshe Burger

I tried also adding in a few clips of American Sign Language (ASL). If you sign, let me know how I did :-)

  • How long have you been playing violin? It seems to me that your bow it's close enough to the bridge, so the tone is a litle rough and it could be better. Either that, or your violin has a scratchier sound.

  • I started with suzuki method when I was a kid. The sound isn't the best quality because it's recorded on my dinky computer speaker (it's also not 'perfectly' tuned).

    Because of the bad microphone, if I held the bow any closer to the bridge, the sound would come out even more scratchy. My violin sounds great live.

  • I'm pretty familiar with Dar's work, what record is this on?

  • On the solo collaborative album that was made with her folk band supergroup trio: "Cry, Cry, Cry."

  • This was heart warming to watch. I agree with portuondo1's comments, so if you make changes, improve on the flow of the techniques......it will be so totally awesome!

  • only two comments on your signing. 1) afew times youused signs from manually coded english, rather than ASL. In ASL, for example, you just point to yourself for "I" rather than using the Ihandshape. Also, it´s generally a good diea to try to wear a shirt that contrasts more with yourskin tone, easier to see your hands that way. Still, pretty amazing.
