Hi all,
I set myself a challenge recently to compile a music video capturing the fun and quiet moments of the summer, the first challenge was finding a song avialable from Youtube's audio editor that would go with some of the footage I have, many songs can have different meaning to others, after a serious spinal injury many years ago I struggle to get out and about as much as I'd like too, I used to work in the leasure and marine environment, so I try to get back out there when I can, but often this is not possible.

Excellent! Enjoyed that, thank you. Did Milford Haven from Ilfracombe a couple of years ago with my young son, so some of that was familiar, together with Drench, Vertigo and Megaphobia at Oakwood Park! Like you, I have a limiting back problem these days so appreciate your position, though looks like you still get in some boating - well done.

Thank you for the comments guys, I quite enjoy making crazy video's from the footage I get whilst out and about, something to watch over the Winter months and remind me that we do get nice weather in the UK, occasionally that is. :)
 
Absolutely brilliant - both in technically and creatively. I loved the footage from the amusement park, the rabbit was especially surreal. After the first few seconds thought it was going to be in the same theme as Dylan Winter's superb video's on ktl but by half-way through I reckoned we should call you the anti-Dylan :p

It looked very high quality daylight footage both from the boat and the shore. What is the camera?
 
Thank you Sir, All the footage was taken using my Gopro, its the only camera I have atm, I'm glad you mentioned the rabbit, I wasn't sure that shot was going to work, the original music video was quite dark and featured dummy faces half way through, so I thought i'd try to include some similar craziness, but I didn't want to continue the original dark theme, where the singer ends up falling at the end of her nightmare then awakens all safe in her bed. Instead I wanted to portray how getting out and having fun can have such a positive effect on the mind and soul. thing is I can only walk a few yards with crutches at snail pace, and mostly rely on my wheelchair to get about on land, also at snails pace as my right hand is also paralyzed, but when I clamber on to my boat, the cards are turned, suddenly I seem to be passing everything, and all the fit and healthy sailor people are the ones traveling at snails pace, I've not got anything at all against yacht-ies though, in fact I used to sail myself in my ab years, and would like to try again some day, but I feel I have few more to safely blast past before I do.:D
