My job here is done...


The FF Project 2009 from Jaime Colon on Vimeo.

Well I'm at work so I can't check for errors so I'm crossing my fingers hoping there isn't any mistakes.
It should be 14 mins long.

Uploading...

The first rendered result is a failure. None of the transition effects were in the video and it was in fast forward for some odd reason.

I'm now restarting the computer and attempting a reencode.
=T

It's encoding at the moment. It still needs to be double checked for errors, and all that other stuff. But yes, it's done and I'm pretty content with the result.

It's pretty "messy" and random. It's also very noisy and visually stimulating. There are overly obnoxious clips with awesome underlying subtle elements to it. There is so much to appreciate in this video that, viewing it only once won't do it any justice whatsoever. So please, when you give yourself a chance to watch this video please take the time to really separate yourself from whatever you're doing and give your full attention to the video. Listen carefully to everything and watch for all the random awesomeness that this video holds.
Much time was spent on filming, and capturing, and converting and all that other nonsense so doing this is the least you can do for Hilary, Devon, the rest of our FF family and I.

Most of all, I must thank Hilary for being the amazing camerawoman, trick supporter, girlfriend, and well; my overall little caretaker through this whole period. I've been coming home from work and neglecting her and some of my responsibilities to complete this project. There's been times that I left home late at night to film and train with the team, and not spend anytime with her.
=T
She's been cooking me up awesome meals and holding down the household and keeping the team together and keeping my mind focused on my projects. =)
Devon deserves a big amount of credit and praise as well. He's also responsible for hours of footage compiling and session arranging. He trains regularly and has that never ending enthusiasm for the team. He also often offers to lend a helping hand with whatever I may be having trouble with. So without saying much more, I can say that this project wouldn't have existed without him and his "fire".
He is a great guy, and it's great to have a good friend like him...

As for my other furious brothers, I must thank you guys for being that awesome eccentric bunch of guys you are! I also thank you guys for giving me respect and coming through for me when I need it. It's like whatever I ask you guys for, you guys always deliver the goods.
=)
You guys are an awesome group, and you'll always be important to me.
I know I've been through a rough stage in my life these past two years, and I must say you guys have supplied me with so much to overcome my troubles, plus you had the patience to wait it out and help me through the dilemma. None of you guys skipped out on me and that means a lot.
Devon, Justin, Ryan, Trevor, Sean, Christian, Tony, Wong, Andy, and David...
Thank you so much for being what you are and being a part of this. You guys make me proud beyond words. I can promise this year will be good for us all~
I <3 FF

I did some pretty neat editing to the video last night before going to sleep. Today I don't have anything going on when I get out of work so I'm pretty sure I can complete the video by tonight. Pl
ease keep in mind that I'll still need to render and encode the video and then upload it. If all goes well I'll supply a download link that will be good by mid day tomorrow.

...digestive enzymes are awesome.

Well you know life is pretty good when a privilege feels like a chore...

I'm at work wishing I was elsewhere. At the same time glad that I have a stable well paying job.
I'm still conditioning myself and working on the ff project. I can't wait to finish it so I can get back to Hilary and clean up my pc.
On that note I want to devote a huge thanks to Hilary for being understanding of my wishes and for supporting my tricking. Also she loves the team, and made a lovely female version of the ff shirt!
She is, without a doubt the best woman in the world.

Also... Andy's newest sampler is awesome!

Here is some Andy and FF made of blocks:

Its 3pm, I've been awake since 8ish am working on the new ff video. So far I have 13mins of _roughly_ edited material. I predict the video will run 16 minutes.

Its all sequenced individually so the tough part is cleverly sticking the sequences together to make it flow nice.

Man, this project sure is a pain in the ass but Im sure the team will love this!

The ff video is insane! Still much work must be done to it. Just know this project is king and it'll be worth the wait!

Yeah Devon to answer your question you can train at the dojo if need be, anyday...
Just like after 9pm is best.
I hope you and the team and get together and do up a good session. And Devon, but of course get some good footage with your camera~

Zoookizoom for now, I'm off to edit land.

I'm just letting you guys know that I'm taking a quick break from tricking for maybe a week and a half or so. I'll be getting back into it hard in early March. I want to rebuild myself, and work on my strength and flexibility.
If you still want to train at the dojo at 9pm on Mondays and Wednesdays just give me a quick call and I'll put you in contact with my father.
:)
I also have a ton of footage I'm editing at the moment so if I attend a session and record more I'll just be putting myself into a deeper hole- HAHA~
I must complete this project, currently it's going smooth...
A huge thanks to Devon for the capturing efforts!

Here is the link to the vimeo version of the loopkack session @ aviator:

I can't do a quality check on the vid cause I'm on my phone but it should be decent. =)

I finished the aviator samp and devon is capturing footage for the new ff vid. Rempfer will be in town weds. Trevor and our new guy dave armstrong will be there too.

We just added andy r and dave a on friday last week. =)
Big things happening!

Hilary and I got our new phones today... I'm in love with this thing!

I would like to go to the Street of Gymness today...

Hopefully Armstrong, Alling, Adie and Arre will arrive. All you bastards have A's for last names!

Haha, anyways I gotta go to work, call/text me to confirm or decline.

(I think Trevor said from 6-9pm)

Amigos, adios---->tu primo Colorado. Javier Lopez si corazon.
