Got a Canon VIXIA HF R800 camcorder for Christmas, and I’m also learning how to work with iMovie. (The software has been sitting idle on my laptop since I bought it in 2013. Now seemed a good time to suss it out.) Tried them out with this piece. So I’m posting a video to replace my original audio post. Presumably the moderators will make the necessary adjustment to my initial post. Mod Edit: Duly done, Tom.
This is a straight through performance, using the sound from the camera. In the future I hope to learn how to sync a separately made audio recording with a video. That’ll improve the quality of both the sound and the playing.
By the way, the crash you’ll hear at the 1:06 mark is someone upstairs dropping something. I really need a quiet studio. Maybe someone will give me one next Christmas.
And sheesh, I need a haircut.
