Warming A Snow Day

December 19th, 2008 by John under General

Well if you live in Michigan, you’ll know by looking out the window that we received over 12 inches of snow last night, and its still coming down.  So I thought It would be fun to warm this cold snowy day with a warm fire and share it with you!

Here is a free video download of a fire I recorded that you can use as a desktop background.  I’m not sure if Mac’s can use video as a “wallpaper” for your computer screen, but I know its pretty easy to do in Vista. 

Here is a higer quality version for Vista (WMV file): NOTE: to download this file, right click on the link and choose “Save Target As” or “Save Link As” to save the file to your computer: http://www.coastline-studios.com/tv/fire.wmv

Here is a smaller MPEG version of the video: http://www.coastline-studios.com/tv/fire.mpg

Enjoy!

 

UPDATE: Vista Ulimate is the only version that come with video desktops as a pre-installed feature.  To set it as a desktop using other versions of windows, you need to download this free program here: http://www.download.com/VLC-Media-Player/3000-13632_4-10267151.html

Liz & Curt’s Highlight Videos

December 12th, 2008 by John under Videography, Weddings

It is always a great day when I get to post a highlight video on my blog… and today I am super excited to be posting the highlights from Liz and Curt’s wedding! 

I am particularly excited about the reception video because ever since I heard the song “We are One Tonight” by Switchfoot, I’ve wanted to do a reception highlight video to it.  It’s so full of energy, and has perfect sections for carefully planned storytelling moments (eg. the “slow it down” part of the song). 

So with out further delay… here they are!  Be sure to check out both of them! : )
