Manatee Encounter

Very nice video! The only Manatee encounter I've been fortunate enough to have was at Sea World. Fascinating animals.

Did you say that you used Cinescore for this video? I've been curious about that software and what it is capable of. I think a lot more people are looking at it to score their videos.

Cinescore was not used for this one. I used it for the cozumel wreck dive video I just posted. If you goto youtube and search DECOPIXEL, you will find a Choc-Mool Cenote dive that I also scored with it. I have only gone as far as using the Vegas Plug In for Cinescore. You Just highlight the section you want scored , choose the tempo and style, and it scores it. There are apparently all kinds of ways to manipulate the way it sounds but I have not gotten there. Billy is right though, that editing to the music yields a better product. I would choose your length and tempo and edit to that. Then go back and add the drama music sweeps and crescendos when you want them. Sony was running a special last month when I got mine and they may still be doing it. It was 249.00 and you got two free theme packs.

Wow, what a video! That venture is on our "to do" list. After seeing that video, I have moved it up to #2. Thanks for sharing.

Nice video and it has jumpstarted my plans for a trip up north

I will be renting a condo the entire month of December to film manatees and record their underwater calls with submersible microphones. Feel free to come say hello and you can be a "model" for a day. You can reach me via PM.

Great video. I was fortunate to see about 4 manatee's when I was San Marcos earlier this year.

Again it was a great video, and yes the two handed rule is used to say that you are grabbing a Mannatee which I know was not the case. Mannatee truly seem to enjoy interacting with people and they are great animals.
