I can't watch now but I am now subscribed to this thread and as soon as I get done putting things away, I am going to watch it! I'm dying to do my first video and edit it and add music and such. Sounds like so much fun.

Awh thanks a lot. It was so frustrating, I've had videos and never been able to edit out the "dead" air parts; finally now I can

I used Windows Movie Maker. It is pretty easy once you get the hang of it. At least to trim the video is. Music is easy to add to, but I need to figure out how to buy and put on my puter some music that I can "legally" use to accompany the video.
My next self lesson is how to figure out, how to slow down the action in certain parts of the video

The pups look like they're having fun! Good job using windows maker

Golly - looked pretty good to me for any try - first or not! That little Razzle diving right in that water like a big dog was just so cute! Why is it a little dog doing regular dog things is so attention getting? They sure look to be having a good old wet time! Don't dogs just love playing in and around water!!!

And you even put in some graphics - words and such. And the music. I would be very proud if this were my first video!

I just LOVE seeing Razz in ACTION!!! Good job on the video!

It's hard for me to remember WMM as it's been two years since I've used it since I got a Mac.

If there is a song that I don't own, I usually go to youtube, find the song in a "video" (people post songs with just scrolling pics, etc on it) and then go to google and type "youtube to mp3" and there is lots of sites where you can download the song from youtube and save it on your computer.

Or you could go to iTunes, buy the song, and do it that way. Keep in mind that YouTube blocks quite a few copyrighted songs, so look for less popular ones, or ones that are under a creative commons license.

Thanks Brit for the tips. In a while I'll try to figure that out.
Some things just come easier to younger minds, not to mention fingers

Thanks so much. Razzle adores the water, and it is so great for exercise with a whole whale of fun thrown in. He can be shaking with cold (think a little kid with blue lips saying MOMS but I'm not not cold) and still want to go in again and again. Hot summer is not so bad, cause you can let them dry out in the hot air, and they don't get cold, and in awhile 30-50 minutes or so, you can bring them in again. It is the shoulder seasons that is most concerning.
When we were dock diving in Missouri last Sept, Razz went in last and had about 5 jumps off the dock, then he must of been tired or something, and just was hanging out vertical in the water. I went in fully clothed to rescue him. He wanted to go back in again!. So I had my hubby throw one last time. Then I was freezing!!. I took him from DH and had of course lots of towels, had one of my friends hold him, of course I had no change of clothes, my hubby loaned me a Tshirt (which came to my knees), and I had a raincoat too. So I changed came back, he was still shivering in the arms of my friend. We promptly went for a very fast walk, while DH warmed up the car. We went back to motel, and a nice hot blow dry saw him very well again. No sneezing or anything. He showed quite well in the ring the next three days

I love it! The oops moment is so funny. Your babies really seem to enjoy that water.

Your video is great! I really love your attitude towards showing dogs. I really, really love that yours gets the full enjoyment of being a dog first, and an incredible show dog second. I wish all "show" owners were this way. I don't mean this in any way as a slight to dog shows or the people who do it. I just really love the way you do it!
