july video scrapbook

Monday, August 3rd, 2009

I haven’t posted in awhile because July got seriously out of hand. In the sense that I had to work way too much and on top of that I got sick. So I had little time for extras, and the video scrapbook is also on the light side. If you’re wondering, as a Winnipegger, where the Folk and Fringe Fest footage is, well, I can explain. I missed Folk Fest this year due to the wedding you see in the video, and I got sick during Fringe. It wasn’t my most thrilling month ever (hours spent at computers doesn’t make for gripping footage, and frankly neither does the buckets of rain we had). But this video does have: pretty people, pink balloons, fireworks, chocolate cake, sidewalk chalk, road trips, babies, flowers, water towers, and candy.

Another exciting development is that the soundtrack has diverted from its usual hipster Brooklyn origin to something closer to home — Saskatoon’s Volcanoless in Canada. Sometimes I just like the sound of a good prairie rock band with a killer singer.
