Shakey Shakerson's Premier "Art Friends" Video

Here's a little surprise for you, my art friends, a video!  
It's my very first attempt, and 
it's a little (alot) rough, so humor me and take a dramamine while you watch it!  

I have much to learn and i would really like to put more video and tutorials on this blog.  This premier rookie version was shot while i held the camera phone and turned the journal pages.  I will "get it", i promise!  For now i'll be starting out with just my iphone and a little tripod just to get practice.   iMovie is a great tool, but as you can see i certainly have not mastered the smoooooth transitions to the next frames, oy!   I pinky swear the next one will be good.

But in the meantime, don't laugh at my A.D.D. artist comments, table shots and off focus tidbits throughout, LOL!!  And at the end, i'm sure you will love the ever so meaningful last frame showcasing my glass table top, aquafina and marker bucket!    It is what it is, and i will look back at my very first blog video with great affection.  I'm just happy that i figured it out, and i did it!
