The purpose of the movie detour is not really to make movies, but I’m curious about using photographs in the Ken Burns manner to tell stories. That’s really what’s floating around in the back of my head. In order to do that, there were a couple of important techniques to work on, and that’s what I’m continuing to practice with Final Cut.
You’ll see a bunch of early tests on youtube at: www.youtube.com/beckermanphoto
One of the things I can see, is that to actually do say a ten minute movie – that is going to be very time-consuming. And it will be a big break from what I’ve been doing. On the other hand, if I practice with the keyframes and effects on my own photos, given what I’ve learned over the last few years, infrared, hdr, tonemapping etc… I could see doing some interesting effects that show the post-processing, and are interesting at the same time.
