I first read about the goal-system, x-1 before x, on a blog. I took an instant shining. Better than New Year's Resolutions, the simple math equation is direct and more personal. I started my own; 24 things to do (big, small and a few admittedly impossible) before I turn 25.
Last year, I wanted to learn Spanish (partial check mark), run a marathon (check!) and get something published (check! check!). This year, I'm learning to create video. Photography is my go-to creative outlet, but with the extra plus one on my age, I'm ready to evolve and push my tech-savvy beyond the average Joe or Karen. My first stab at video came last year. I was at Zhengzhou's ostrich farm, my first week in the heart of China.
It was my first go.
I used Apple's simplistic iMovie for editing and was still attempting to learn transitions, focusing and content. I was at phase one, shoot. My second go, one minute in Paris, is in the making. Unfortunately, in the larger screen mode, none of the video is clear. Another problem to figure out.
Ultimately, I'd love to learn how to make something like this.
