I don’t claim to know all intricacies or absolute ‘best’ items, this is just what I’m currently using for the work that I do. Hope this helps and thanks to those for putting in the requests and pushing me to put something out!

SXSW from Glenn McElhose on Vimeo.

This is a video montage of 2,100+ still images and 3 video clips from my travels at SXSW this year.
I tossed the clips on the time line to MGMT’s “kids” track – seemed like a perfect fit, awesome song.
Once certain portions were in sync, I then went back and fudged a bunch of the stills to match the beat and then also use some of the better stills to zoom in on.
That was a fun edit!
