Silver Spring

Silver Spring Video

Above is my completely self-shot and self-edited video showing what Silver Spring is like. Is it the best video in the world? No, but I'm proud of it anyway. Originally, I had hoped to perhaps partner up with someone else to do this project, but I took too long. By the time I had to start actually thinking about the video, everyone already had partners. So, it was up to me to make my own video and then edit it. I had to steal Peter Berger's camera to film it, because I don't own a video camera, and then went to downtown Silver Spring to get some footage. Basically, I wandered around and took video of things that looked Silver Spring-y to me. Maybe it wasn't the most ambitious of ideas, but I didn't want to get in over my head. After all, I am pretty terrible at editing things. I used Youtube Video Editor, mainly because it was easy, and completed the editing process in about 45 minutes. Then I plugged in some happy music I found that was CC approved, and I was done. Unfortunately, I had found some music on ccmixter that I was going to use, but I couldn't figure out how to put it in my video. I resorted to using a strange song that I found on Youtube's own list of approved audio tracks. It works though, I guess. Enjoy.

P.S. Here's a hoops mixtape.
