On the eve of the great Titanic disaster i was inspired to make a small video on my thoughts of the events that happened. Below is the link to my Video.

Desmond,

First off, great job. Excellent stills of the ship and a combination of images that really hit you. As someone who shoots (and occationally edits) professionally, I know this was no small task to put together. Great music mix; what were the pieces?

My only reservation is that it ends rather abruptly instead of the slow fade to black the music and the pace of cutting would suggest throughout the piece.

A fine respectful tribute to the "Titanic" and its people.

Claus.

Claus, Tkns for your comments and obviously you are a good judge of compiling and editing film\video as you are right it did take some time to piece this together but i did want to try and get my feelings across (small as it may be) on not only the Titanic, but on the 'Titanic loss of life and sorrow' that came from this great disaster. I was inspired to make the Video on this its 100th Anniversary and im touched that you say its a nice respectful tribute to Titanic and its people. I put my hand up and say that most of the elements in the Video were plucked from U Tube but re edited including the music which i got from some 'New age' tracks and broke it up throughout the video. I needed to be happy with the final music mix so that it best fitted out the video. I did clip the end a bit short and tkns for pointing this out..
