Okay. This is my first attempt at adding video to my blog. Be patient with me. I don’t quite get the editing yet. I wanted to do certain portions slow motion but could not get the effects editor to open, no matter how many times I watched the video that showed me how it’s supposed to work. iMovie’s Help totally stinks!
I also wasn’t sure how much to compress or what settings to use. My first save was 97 MB! I got it down to 7.3, but now it looks kind of dotty. Any suggestions from you experienced video-ographicers?
Anyway, this is Java playing frisbee. She’s getting better at catching it. You might also notice she has a training collar on. According to the DVD that came with the collar, you are supposed to put it on for about a month and play and train the dog before you ever start to actually turn it on and use it. That way the dog hopefully associates the collar with fun time and not with being hit by lightening. Plus you are working on basic come and stay, within reach before moving on to obeying commands in an open field.
I do need to take more photos of Luke lest you think I’ve forgotten him or something. There certainly hasn’t been much trail riding but the weather is starting to get better so perhaps September will be the month for that. The bugs are awful bad right now though. I’ve been trying out fly leg…
If anyone wants to know anything about wood foundations, I’m your girl. Because of the house I almost bought, I now know more than I ever wanted to know about the proper installation of a wood foundation, and crooked builders who cut corners. And sellers, well, I won’t even get into that. Anyway, I’m now…
Poor Java. She’s gone from this. To this. She tried to make do with some rollicking splashing. And tried flattening herself to get her whole body in the pool. Wow, man. Bummer. Back to splashing. It was in the 90’s today with about the same reading on humidity scale. Technically known as “can’t breathe” weather….
My dog Willow died in August of 2008. After more than a year of nursing her failing kidneys and the seizures she had, I ended up putting her down after she stopped eating and struggled to even get out of her bed. Right now, I sure could use the comfort and laughter Willow brought into…
Murphy is taking a load off and trying to snooze.. “This is odd,” thinks Java. “Hey! Murphy! Is something wrong with you?” “Hey! I’m talking to you!” “This is way too boring. Maybe if I run past Luke with this hunk of paper I can stir up some kind of game.” “No! Luke! Hey! I’m…
Last night, Lynn and I met up at Truffles and Tortes in downtown Anoka to have some desert and catch up on things. I had the scrumptious Chocolate Nirvana and coffee. While Lynn had a Chocolate Torte and tea. Lynn brought her art journal to show me the artwork she made in a class at…

I love this! Java did so well there at the end! I could never get any of my dogs to play frisbee! I would have thought my Aussie’s would be good at it, but no. They would rather herd goats, and humans. Hmmm… I think you did a good job editing, I don’t even know how to do that. I just put whatever video I recorded right on my blog, mistakes and all! I am not very computer literate at times!!
You did a FAB job with this…I don’t know how to do this at all so I’m no help. It turned out great! Oh and JAVA is really getting to be an expert frisbee catcher.
Awesome video!! Java is a total pro frisbee catcher! Mack does those leaping catches for snowballs, but that’s the only thing he’ll do it for (hurts his dignity too much when he misses and gets beaned by a ball or frisbee…but snow is another story, as being 1/2 Husky he adores it!)
