A model for VJM: simple, brief Xmas @ Magnet musical snippet

Xmas @ Magnet Shreveport / Jay Williams, conductor a video by trudeau on Flickr.

Sitting right under the choir's noses made the most of the low light and it enhanced the audio signal.

If there had been a tripod the video would have been better. The small pan was correctly slow but could have been steadier.

Lessons:
1. Get close.
2. Steady your camera.
3. Move the camera as Little As Possible. Let the movement come from your subject(s). In this case, from their faces.
4. Good audio is the key to success in most of the videos you shoot.
5. Effective audio is not easy.
