I Thank You - And Cathy Thanks You

Man...
What can I say?
I want to humbly thank EVERYONE who voted for Cathy's First Time on the VASST website. You guys really lifted my spirits. I was thrilled when it went to #5; extatic when it went to #3 and when I heard that it briefly went to #1, I was - um... what comes after extatic? Then it dropped in a voting war, but when it finally WON! I was hopelessly overwhelmed.
I've had several requests for a tutorial on the editing of that vid. I plan on putting out a bunch of fires here that have been gaining the upper hand while I was up there at NAB, but will put something together when I can breath again. If it's good enough, the kind folk at VASST said they may host the tut.
I'll do my best.
Thank you everyone.

You did a great job Matthew. Just as an FYI, the VASST site lets you upload your own project files or link to your own tutorials anytime. It's under "Free Resources/Share Yours".

And if you want a more permanent place to host your video you might check out Chienworks site, if you haven't already: http://www.vegasusers.com/vidshare/. The contest listing on VASST will eventually disappear.

If you do the tutorial, please go into detail about the lighting techniques used. I really liked the effect.
Very nice!

As I have often said... CONCEPT RULES.

But great lighting and super cutting sure don't hurt.

Congrats to you for an excellent job - one I'd be proud to have on my reel.

HAHAHA!! Stan.... *sigh* ;-)
Yes. The tutorial will include just about everything after the loose script we came up with. I plan on including all shooting, lighting and finishing. Give me a couple weeks and I'll mention it here when it's available.
