Free Mr Frog

Download HD video


Here's how it was made:

Shot with a Sony HDR-HC3 set into 'Cinema Effect' mode (25p) and using an 'ND8' neutral density filter.

Edited with Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 and cropped into a '2.4:1' apect ratio (using a crop tool reduce height to 74% or 13% for top and bottom).

Some of the shots like the frog close-up and the waterfall ending are enhanced with the 'Warm & Fuzzy' film effect from Magic Bullet (additional plug-in for Premiere Pro).

Exported into un-compressed AVI at 480x200 (2.4:1 aspect) and exported again using QuickTime Pro into a 320x240 (youtube native) video compressed with the H.264 codec before finally uploading.
The HD video for download is compressed into DivX at 1280x532 pixels (720 equivalent).

Mr Frog

It was by pure chance that I spotted the frog swimming around in my friends slimey green swimming pool.

I had no idea I would end up with a romantic Froggy video but damn it looks good.
