Larry, himself.

Welcome to 2012!

May this year be much, much better than last year; for all of us.

Several new things in this issue: three new articles and a revised webinar for this week.

This week's webinar looks at using music in our video projects. Technically, adding music is easy. aesthetically, though, wow! There are a lot of options. I created a scene which we will score in a variety of ways. We'll discover that when we play music has as much impact as what music we play.  I first got this idea from Norman Hollyn and was so impressed with this that I want to share it with you.

We use dialog to tell our audience what to think, we use music to tell our audience what to feel. Learn how this works in this week's webinar.

Here's a list of all our January webinars. I hope to see you there.
