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.
Thanks for all the birthday wishes! As part of my birthday celebration, I saw a show called “Wits” put on by MPR on Friday night. The performers included comedian Patton Oswalt and musician Grant Lee Phillips (who performed with REM and Pearl Jam, but is best known to me as Stars Hollows Troubadour on Gilmore…
Oh, Baby, Baby I love my new baby Not this baby Although I love her too But this baby Newest addition to my family She is flippin’ fast Zoom! Zoom! Whirrrr! Bling! Blang! Capturing my heart moments Freezing wonder Sometimes in midair She is very mysterious I’m devilishly striving To discover How to push her…
I was planning on going to the state park with Luke early Saturday morning, but when you don’t get home until 1:00 AM, you don’t quite get packed up to go by 9:00 AM, more like 11:00. But I did it! I overcame my fear of going to a new park with the horse and…
It’s getting to that end of year time when we start to think about another year gone by. We wonder what next year will be like and what we want it to be like. What do we need to do or change to make next year better than this year? But I don’t know, 2015 was pretty good.
Saturday, I went on a 3 mile walk with Java. It took me 90 minutes at my relatively slow pace. I spent a lot of time working on getting Java to heel. I usually let her walk in front of me as, honestly, I just get tired of yelling at her to heel and jerking…
It reached the low 70s today.Cloudy and muggy but an event just the same. The warm, humid weather has brought out the gnats already. As I rush around after work each day, it seems like there is too much to do and not nearly enough time. I’m sure no one out there can relate to…

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!)
