Hi all,

I was filming some of the things I have been playing with recently to see from an audiences point of view. I've quickly stuck it together with a track over. Some stuff is repeated but that was the main point of the filming in the first place.

<<Shadow of the Day>>

Enjoy,
Goldie Smile

I didnt think I did any in there? I think you maybe mean the one short hybrid. Its kind of like a buzzsaw iso but you iso one and the other is wrapped round your hand so it is short and it follows the other. So the short one is doing a big circle in time with the hand of the one being iso'd... lol. There's a lesson for it on DMP. Smile

With regards to iso's, try this, I though about it the other day...

Take one poi and dangle it at about stomach height straight down. Now start moving your hand in a circle like you were stirring a big bowl. Ignore what the head does, just concentrate on stirring that bowl.

If you dont put any spin on the poi and just stir you will notice the head stays at the opposite side of the circle to the hand. You are isolating Smile

Now once you got the feeling, work on tilting it upright. You may have to move your hand like crazy at first but you will soon get the feel Smile

Good luck

Goldie

Very nice Tom, glad you went for the Sepia, it really lightens up the fact that it was shot at dusk.

I love that thing at 3:10 ish, when you've perfected the timing on that it will be super sweet!

Great vid as usual!

See you later when you get home from work Laughing
