Your fly fishing photography added to a custom video

[dcabarle]

I took some of the pics uploaded from the site and modified them, making them more colorful or more dreary. then I put a song in the background and well... here you have it.

***Edited***

This is a new high res version, replacing the download and the low res version. This one can be viewed at full screen and it still looks good.

Nice video. You use Premiere?
What tune is that BTW?

 

[AKSkim]

Outstanding.

Hi guys, thanks for the comments. For those who PM'd me... I'm uploading a higher resolution one version now. When I get to work, I'll post the link. It's about 30 meg.

The artist is called, "Motorcycle" and it's a Trance mix by, "Gabriel & Dresden". The name of the song - "As The Rush Comes".

If you have a pic or vid you think might fit in, let me know and I'll see if there's a spot for it.

My favorite mod is one I did of a photo uploaded by Serotonin.

 

[C&R]

Can someone try this out and let me know if it's working for you:

Thanks

Works just great Dennis.

I do videos like this all the time (for friends' weddings, my kids growing up, even made a valentine's video for my wife a few years ago) and it really is a great hobby. I get a kick out of everyone saying "wow that's cool," "how did you do that," "it's really neat how you synched the words of the background music to that scene."

Just a few things that I would do if you're up for suggestions:

1) I would take drop the dialogue in the middle and let the song play uninterrupted. Its a great song and sets an inspiring mood.

2) Add more people pics to replace some scenery pics if at all possible. Alternate them if you can. Sero has some nice ones he posted. I know there are tons of others.

3) If you have the space, make a DVD-compliant .iso file that can be downloaded and burned. Would love to add this to my library.

Actually, I enjoy the scenery pics more than the ones with people in it. The photo gives the viewer an undisturbed view of solitude. Now isn't that what many of us try achieve in the first place?

But if you wish to include some nice scenes with fishierman in it, I have a bunch from the Salmon River (Altmar, Town Pool, Compactor, Sportsman Pool) from October, November, December that should fill the bill (Just teasing ya).

As always, on your side.

C&R,

I think AKS hit the nail right on the head... I was trying to make this more of a scenic thing with a few exceptions that I thought fit right in.

I'm always up for constructive critisism. Please, pick away! By the way... at one point I got pretty familiar with Premier but since have forgot how to use it. Not a pro by any means, but proficient enough to get a few simple things done. I still have it, maybe I'll install it again. I know it's got many more features than the thing I'm using.

:iagree: Welcome back Andre you have been missed... after seeing your familiar face in the vid I began to wonder what had happened to this cane coinsures. I am glad the hiatus is over! Been fishing?

hey denis.. how come i dont see anything???

 

[C&R]

The artist is called, "Motorcycle" and it's a Trance mix by, "Gabriel & Dresden". The name of the song - "As The Rush Comes".

Great song but are they a one-hit wonder? iTunes only had one album for them and it had the same song in eight different flavors...

Dennis:
I go from connect to play to stop in a fraction of a second. Have no problem with the first one.

[sstasiak]

Again, awesome job with the video Dennis. To get the DVD, do we just make a PayPal donation off the main page?

 

[dcabarle]

Stasiak, yes, paypal is the preferred choice.

If you've already donated, just send your address.

 

[Fly Tier]

Better be careful charging a fee for this. Once a fee is charged, regardless if its a donation or what have you, it is considered commercial. In the past, any time we had photos taken for a magazine, on nat'l parks property, we were required to get a daily permit and this was enforced. The Upper Delaware is controlled by Federal National Parks People.

"The National Park Service, a branch of the U.S. Department of the Interior, has published new rules authorizing the NPS to collect location fees for video, film, and still photography projects. The regulations appear in the Federal Register (Vol. 71, Number 71) published April 13, 2006
.
In the form of a press release issued by the NPS Office of Public Affairs saying that they will now implement “location fees for filming and still photography.” Currently film and video permits are required in National Parks. Administration charges to issue the free permits have ranged from no cost at all up to $200 per project.
“This is a first step in a process of departmental regulations that will apply to the Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,” Lee Dickinson, special use coordinator for the National Park Service, told News Photographer magazine today.
The new location fees start at $150 per day and – with monitors and other charges – could exceed $500 per day.
The new rules are modeled after the existing film permit regulations and fee structures that are used by the Bureau of Land Management and now will be applied to all federally operated National Parks.

 

[dcabarle]

What a friggen scam! That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

Anyway folks... Let me re-iterate... The content contained within the DVD is FREE. The DVD the media is placed and my cost for putting your name and address on an envelope as well as my trip to the post office will require a $15.00 donation to the site.

Filming in the Windows area.

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="285"> <tbody><tr> <td valign="top"> It is the policy of the National Park Service to allow filming and photography consistent with the protection and public enjoyment of park resources. Therefore, the primary consideration in the evaluation of permit requests in the Southeast Utah Group is the potential for resource damage and the disruption of normal public use.
Permits are not generally required for:

• Visitors engaged in filming/photography intended for their personal use and enjoyment
• The filming of a breaking news event by news crews
• Filming conducted pursuant to a cooperative agreement or contract with the National Park Service

A request for a filming or photography permit may be denied if:

• The requested activity represents a potential for an adverse impact on the parks natural, cultural, wilderness or recreational resources or the visitor experience, or poses health or safety risks
• The requirements for supervising the project exceed the staffing capacity of the affected park
• The applicant fails to obtain insurance/bonding, or to agree to pay assessed cost recovery
• The request includes entry into areas closed to the visiting public or activities not permitted to the average park visitor

How to Apply
Complete Form 10-932 [27k PDF File] and return it to the address on the form with a check for $100.00 made payable to the National Park Service. This non-refundable processing charge covers up to two hours of documented staff time for permit negotiation, preparation and processing. It is not a guarantee that you will be issued a film permit.
In addition, we are required to recover additional costs for time spent beyond the first two hours at a cost recovery rate of $50.00 per hour, assessed in fifteen minute increments. Work related to the permit requiring the use of off-duty personnel will be billed at a minimum two hour call-back rate of $100.00. Finally, permit compliance monitoring by a park ranger is required for many filming projects. The cost for this is $50.00 per hour. In compliance with the requirements of the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996, the applicant must submit his or her Social Security number or Federal Tax ID number when completing the permit application.
Fees
Below is the current location fee schedule for commercial photography and filming:
Motion Pictures/Videos
1 to 10 people: $150/day
11 to 30 people: $250/day
31 to 49 people: $500/day
Over 50 people: $750/day
Commercial Still Photography
1 to 10 people: $50/day
11 to 30 people: $150/day
Over 30 people: $250/day
Processing Time
Please allow at least two weeks for permit processing. If the permit request is approved, restrictions and conditions will be stipulated in the permit. Permit activities may be restricted according to seasonal conditions and visitation levels.We require that all relevant details and changes regarding permitted activities be confirmed at least 72 hours prior to the activation of the permit. Prior to issuance of the permit, we must be in possession of the following items:

• Original copy of your insurance certificate
• Completed application
• Permit processing charge and the bond.

You will need to secure and sign your film permit in person prior to initiating any activity in the park.
Insurance
Commercial general liability insurance is required for most projects in the following amounts:

• $300,000.00 for simple still photography
• $1,000,000.00 minimum for electronic media and commercial motion photography
• $3,000,000.00 minimum for special activities (feature films, elaborate stunts, etc.)

The United States Government must be named as additionally insured.
Bond
A bond may be required in the form of cash, cashiers check or similar negotiable currency. All or a portion of the bond may be retained to pay for the costs of site rehabilitation, damage to park property/resources and/or unpaid chargers associated with the permit. The balance will be returned upon the completion of filming activities and payment of all outstanding bills.
Closures & Traffic Control
If your plans include road closures within the park, arrangements for traffic control must be made with local or state law enforcement agencies. You will be billed by these agencies for officer overtime. The contact number for these agencies is (435) 259-8115.
Location Assistance
For additional assistance with locations, local scouts and other logistical needs, you may wish to contact the Moab Film Commission at (435) 259-6388. The Canyonlands Natural History Association may be contacted at (435) 259-6003 for publications about the parks in the area.

Basically this means that ALL photography taken in National Park territory is ok for personal usage.

What this also means is that ALL photographs taken in a national park 'window' posted by ANYBODY onto ANY website is subject to the same rules and regulations because once it's posted, its no longer personal usage.

If this holds true, we'll have to delete the majority of the photographs from this website as well as ALL websites of this nature.

For example, this "photo of the month" found on a money making website was most certainly taken in a National park but is on public display. Not personal use by any means.

I know you're just looking out, but let's be realistic. **By the way, that's a great looking fish, Ralph.

 

[Fly Tier]

Their rules are a joke, especially those people who have weddings in DC and have to have their photographers get a permit. Im certainly not looking out for anything, just merely pointing out these rediculous rules which have been driving photographers nuts.

Hey, I didn't make the rules
