LOGO: Pinwheel Pinwheel Where Have You Been?


While I'm trying to take care of that technical difficulty, I decided to work on a smaller project just so I can finally publish a video.
I tried to recreate the title logo from my Final Cut Pro course—the very one that inspired the name of this blog, er, I mean vlog. It was good practice for me to relearn using keyframes. Using keyframes in this instance allowed me to give motion to a still image. Watch it spinnnnnn!!!!!!!!
As my skills improve, and as I remember some tricks taught in class that were not part of the regular curriculum, I may make alterations to the logo.

It took me way longer than I thought to complete this. Part of the problem is the pain in my neck, back and shoulder (please avoid jokes about Elle). I'm still not sure of the exact event that caused all this pain but certain activities, even just moving a mouse on a computer, definitely aggravate it. This limits my range of motion and my ability to concentrate. That's not the technical difficulty, however. That would be a potentially defective tape. I am getting professional help–for the tape and my neck/back/shoulder pain. The main point of this paragraph is that due to my physical condition, I won't be able to get 2 videos on this vlog today as I planned earlier this week. I'm going to set a goal to have something up on Wednesday. Possibly something to do with the 2 new babies in my family. Or a post-Valentine's Day montage.

Enough about that stuff. Just check out my logo. It's only 5 seconds long. If you don't hear audio then you did something wrong. Just kidding. There is no audio. Maybe in logo_v1.1.

Ok. So you can click HERE to view the video or you can click the picture. In the future, you'll always be able to click the picture to view the video.
