Colours of the Wind

Me playing some of my VideoSheetMusic and I shot some video in the local ravine and merged it with sound of geese from my backyard. There seems to be no wildlife in that ravine.

Big Sister

This is a song I wrote for my big sister after looking at a painting by Van Dyke.
I found pictures on the web and also used home photos.

I Want a Dog

I wrote this song for the National Film Board of Canada. This, however, is a trance version of the song and I used cut out dolls, like 'shadowy men on a shadowy planet' (one of my favourite videos).
I also did some drawing and experimented with cut mixed with various transition effects.

Kiss the Rain

I played against a green screen. Put in a video of my playing shot from the front and a third level in the middle of rain on a window, but faded out quite a bit. Other than the reflection doesn't match up because I only have one camera, I think it's kinda neat...perhaps a little spooky.

Memories

Pictures of my family done like looking through photos and throwing them down on a table after viewing.
I like this effect. I do it with putting a white vignette on each picture.

Mission Impossible

Me playing VideoSheetMusic and I added a third level between my playing and the green screen. Then put in Tom Cruise.

Now and Forever

My first attempt at drawing and colouring a video, then merging with a photo. It's kind of slow in the middle and would probably add a couple more scenes if I was ever to do it again.

Rainbow Connection

Me playing against a green screen, then I put in a flash cartoon behind. This is my favourite technique.

Reflections

A song I wrote that is fun to play on the flute.

Stormy Weather

This is my first attempt at mixing live action with photos. My hair was horrible and I didn't have a green screen then, so it's not really nicely blended, but it worked with this video.

The YouTube Deleted all my Stuff Song

I have been taking screenshots of how my YouTube videos are doing and then just as I reached 3 million views...POOF! They deleted everything...so I wrote a song.

Time to Say Goodbye

I combined an old video of just photos with a new video of me playing against a green screen. Kind of makes you a bit sick when the fast images go by.

Tomorrow's Dream

This is my son's song. He wrote it and performs and asked me to do a video.
The concept is telling is life through tarot card and other imagary. I kind of worked backwards and it ends with him as a kid in his tree house.
I didn't have video of him playing, so I cut out hands playing guitar and stuck them on a photo of him. It's incredibly dorky, but it makes me laugh.

Turn Around

Live green screen mixed with flash animation (told you this was my favourite technique
Sort of a joke video - where I set up the ending.

Unchained Melody

I used a stuffed animal and glued a fife into it's paws and worked it by strings. My Niece helped out. The pottery studio background is suposed to remind you of Ghost.

World on a String

Kind of my "theme song" done with live action mixed with images from around the world.

Yiruma (A River Flows in You)

I found this video on YouTube and thought it timed surprisingly well with the music.
