A FEW FINAL NOTES ON THE VIEO (wedding)

I think this will be the last entry on the video..  I watched it today a little bit and it is interesting to view. I have seen the full version, and I put the XVID version on and watched some of it.. Then I put the 1080p version on.. The quality is maybe slightly better in 1080 but the way the it is presented on my tv at least is in letterbox form.. Letterbox has a black space at the top and bottom of the screen.. For what that is worth I don't know.. But also while watching the 1080 version (the two videos aren't identical because XVID wouldn't look good up converted) I noticed a scene wasn't there.. Where was it??  Was it moved or did I space out and not see it that way.. Well I backed up the "tape" and watched from where the video should have been.. It was there on the XVID version, why isn't it HERE??  Well a few more scenes later THERE IT WAS.. OK, so there are a few mistakes on this video.. One blaring that I was going to change but then didn't..  And this scene that I was just talking about.. It is from the "pictures session" chapter and  when I was editing the video I split this scene because there was a fair amount of time between one picture shot and another, so I edited it.. When putting the video together I forgot they were related.. When I did put them together I used the simplest of ways to do it.. I used the alphabet.. Trouble was the pictures session had some 35 scenes.. So on the original XVID video I ran out of letters as well (30) and the 1080 was slightly more.. So I took the relative videos and where it made sense I used the relative base letter and the number in sequence after so say H followed by 1, 2 , 3.. You get the idea...  But these two videos got split up for some reason.. I think, unless you are paying attention you won't notice.. It is quickly getting to be a fair amount of time since the big event happened so maybe no one will notice.. Also this part of the video was just extra..

I keep going back and forth on giving them the full video, the one I recorded on the dvd recorder.. It has a lot of test shots especially from the rehearsal.. It was boring for mom to watch and probably wouldn't be all that interesting to watch unless you like how a video goes together.. The pictures session is the full length version with the finished product using only what I wanted.. To explain what that is like imagine someone recording a game for you (football) and they took out not only the commercials but the between the plays part.. That is what the pictures session is like on the final product disc.. The wedding itself had a few seconds here & there removed, not because there was a problem with the video but because the first edit came where the preacher's mic wasn't turned up initially and he went off about that.. The second was where Tabitha's song continued although she was finished singing it.. They forgot to make  a copy like I did when her and Jordan sang it for Donald's wedding..  So that was all the troubled video edits. The reception I as well didn't use all of the video I shot but I did use almost all of it...
