I put these togther as a lead in to camp. I thought it would be a good time killer for days like today, for 3 minutes at least!!!

So the first one, well, the whole offseason has been portrayed as a drama. A teen drama storyline almost and camp is in California. So I have always loved the opening credits/titles to the teen dramedy The O.C. (Yea I know get your laughs and your jokes in, I have a bad habit of watching tv shows that are for a teenage female audience. Dont ask. I dont know either)

anyway. I love the titles on that show. They were done by a company called the Picture mill. http://www.picturemill.com/ Click on broadcast and then concept and you will see the season 3 credits of the o.c.

So what I did was mimick the season 1 opening credits of the O.C. and made it for the cowboys. I made it frame for the frame exactly the same. It is done in 1080i HD. So if you have a widescreen monitor blowit up and enjoy, if not just click full screen and watch it. I kinda love the way this looks and it is the most fun editing I have ever had.

The second video Is just a training camp teaser/trailer/lead in ...whatever. I started making it all dramatic like a trailer then stopped because of the length and changed it. I had a voice over lined up but it fell through..it works without I think though. Enjoy. This one is in 720p HD so enjoy it full screen!

I hope you enjoy them. Dont laugh at me too much for the oc thing! Dont be afraid to drop a comment on the youtube page if you watch it on there.

If anyone wants them in another format let me know. I have them rendered as quicktime files also but it seems no one ever downloads them. Just let me know.

thanks for taking the time to watch.

here is my youtube page if your interested in watching the other stuff I have put up in the past to waste some time.

Gee...that sucked.





Just kidding! As always, you did a great job!

Now, I'm all hyped up. I know I won't sleep tonight. I get like this in July. Always thinking about what this team will be like.

Awesome stuff! I just threw it up on my blog.

I still can't believe Jerry and T.O. eating popcorn from that huge bowl, lol.

I had an alternate ending. But it threw the video out of serious mode.

I have HD shots of jerry dancing, close ups of jerry and owens putting popcorn in their mouth....like tonsil closeups, dave campo dancing with the guys in the secondary and jerry pointing to the popcorn saying this is your signing bonus!!

I still might find a way to use that stuff!

When Jerry puts his arms up front of him and starts shaking them it may be the funniest thing in the world. He looks like a little 3 year old, lol.

I was contemplating purchasing that, but I hear the learning curve is sort of steep. Great work! That's my one and only compliment for you bro. :D

are talking about the avid or boris red?

Both have learning curves, but not as scary as you think and well worth it.

Thanks.

thanks.

They stopped production on express pro. Now they sell media composer as the entry software.

My advice, do what I did. Check ebay constantly. I got an uopened version of axp for 300 bucks. that is pretty ridiculous. Now I can upgrade to media composer for 395. Pretty absurd to get composer for under 1000 bucks. I havent had any reason to upgrade yet though!

dont be afraid!!!! Remember though, the avid is very particular. You will most likely have to buy a new computer. HP workstations work flawlessly with it.

or you can go final cut pro.

Hey Theebs,

They got your video up at the DMN Blog.

Again, great work and I'm glad it will get some serious looks now.

I dabble in the video editing stuff and I know that putting that together took an enormous amount of time and effort.

Thanks bro for taking the time.

Why are you not working for the Cowboys yet?
