Yucatan Travel Movie Narration Complete

Miriam Balsley and I had a fruitful week. We finished the narration of the Yucatan Travel Movie.

Cancun & Chichen Itza Narration Added

Today, we are working on the narration to accompany the video footage of Cancun and Chichen Itza in the Yucatan Travel Movie. Miriam Balsley, the narrator, and I are having fun and getting a lot done.

First Day of Narration

It went well. Always some apprehension starting, but once we got going, I felt happy and confident that the narration with Miriam Balsley would be a success . . . and, it was. Now, we have another few days to continue the narration for the Yucatan Travel Movie.

Starting the Narration of the Yucatan Travel Movie

I’m in Vermont with Miriam Balsley the narrator of the Yucatan Travel Movie. We begin today. Yay!

Sony Music in Yucatan Travel Movie

I’m using Sony Vegas Movie Studio 9 Platinum Pro to edit the Yucatan Travel Movie. The software includes some fantastic non-copyrighted music.

5th Draft of Yucatan Travel Movie

What have I been doing the last couple of days? Still working on the Yucatan Travel Movie. On the 5th draft, if I remember correctly. Everything is starting to become a blur. Tightening it up and making room for the Special Features.

Happy New Year!

The Feathered Serpents of Chichen Itza

While continuing to edit the Yucatan Travel Movie, I am reminded of the wonderful sights I saw while touring the amazing ruins at Chichen Itza. I especially like all the carvings of feathered serpents, such as the ones on the upper walls of the Temple of the Warriors where you can see distinct eagle-type claws and long beautiful wing feathers with the man in the feathered serpent’s mouth. The neck and head are those of a serpent while the rest of the body is that of an eagle. The man looks so content in this strange creature’s mouth, as if the man is sight-seeing.

“Travel Tips” for the Yucatan Travel Movie

I hope to have enough time space on the DVD containing the Yucatan Travel Movie to include “Travel Tips” footage showing where we ate and slept during our travels in Yucatan.

Wonderful Meeting with Nancy Burrows

Nancy Burrows is a prodigious music talent. I felt happy and honored to take some video footage of her playing the guitar. I hope to make a short video to go with the Yucatan Travel Movie about the marvelous musicians and composers, such as Nancy, who allowed me to use their music in the movie.
