I am not much into sharing pictures and video. I have Facebook friends who capture so much of their lives that one feels like they've moved in with them. I'm sure their children will cherish those movies and pix someday but right now I'm a bit of a Luddite in that regard. Super 8 reels probably elicited the same reaction a generation back.My first try at video was created with Magisto, an Editor's Pick on Google Play Store. The star is Duncan Cat, whose tuxedo lent an air of elegance to the film despite his low-key portrayal. I couldn't get an easy connection to my still photos or my own music so this first try is not quite what I wanted. It felt like the app had all the control of the finished product and I wasn't really directing it. Maybe that's all one needs for a quick post on a social media destination. I liked it enough to pay $.99 to download it from the free app.
What a gorgeous cat! And he seemed pretty nonplussed at being the star of your film - he's a natural! :) I'm glad you liked this app. Like you, I'm not much into sharing my own life via photo or video, but maybe if I had kids that would be different. I do think that if I got started with making videos of my cats I'd become pretty dangerous in a hurry! :)
