July4Us: Bennington Flag


Download File

For July 4th I decided to try to shoot a movie with my still camera.

I used my Digital Rebel and set it to BURST mode. Then I took ninteen photos in a row and imported them into iPhoto. In iPhoto, I configured the settings to take these nineteen photos and make them into a movie with each photo displaying for one second.

Then I exported this movie to my desktop, and imported it into iMovie. In iMovie, I added the title and credits,.

Next I added the Aged Film effect. Then under Audio, I grabbed the Foley sound effect of an Antique Clock. I split this effect at each beat, and then dragged each beat to the point where the visual changed.

Next I exported as a QuickTime for iPod which automatically chose H.264 compression, 320x240, 30 fps.

After that was done, a quick upload to Hipcast and posting to the blog.

The Bennington Flag: Used in the Battle of Bennington, August 16, 1777, by Vermont militia. This flag is the first to lead American armed forces on land. The original is preserved in the museum at Bennington, Vermont.
