"The Big Game - Final Cut" by Victoria Taylor-Gore - make sure you watch it in HD. Video and editing by Victoria Taylor-Gore Music - "Drifting Away" by Elliot Simons Purchased music license from Video Comments: OK - I worked really hard for this revision of "The Big Game" - literally over 50 revisions - yes, I’m persistent. Points to consider: 1. shooting 24 (23.976) fps on a Canon 7D. 2. shooting most of it on a Tokina 100mm macro with no image stabilization (pans are really shaky). 3. finding out after I fell in love with 24p that 24p is really crappy on long horizontal pans (skips on playback over the web). 4.

So I'm going to share what I have learned to get this video to run decently on the web (which looked great on my hard drive from the beginning): 1. reshot some of the horizontal pans on the Kessler Crane Pocket Dolly in 60p and converted it to 24p (slow motion) in Premiere Pro CS4 - that seemed to help make pans in the web version smoother. 2. experimented with different Vimeo settings and adjusted them for 24p - and this is the best result for me (exporting in Premiere Pro CS4 to Vimeo) - a picture is worth a thousand words: Note: this is not foolproof - There are random artifacts on most of my video exports to Vimeo, but finally this setting worked OK - not perfect, but OK...pans are still a little choppy, but not as bad as before. And a there are some random artifacts left in the video when the HD setting is off, so please watch the video in HD. If anyone has any suggestions on improving these settings, please let me know. All in all, th...
