Nastia Liukin - HEART OF COURAGE

http://www.woga.net/WOGAHOME/WOGATEAM... thanks for sharing this one with all your tweeps Nast =) music: Two Steps From Hell - Heart of Courage editing notes: programs = Sony Vegas Pro 8 and Microsoft PAINT =D wow the last time i put up a vid was LAST DECADE, so it's nice to get something out there again =D I'm still trying to train my eye in color correction and achieve a more theatrical look by messing around with desaturation and adding a slight glow effect. i also added a very slight vignette (thing around the border) that is slightly blurred and desaturated to be black and white. I framed the clips down so any logos wouldn't be visible with the exception of the last clip. i added a slight blur to the text in the beginning as i think too sharp of text looks a bit off. so i softened it up with a slight blur. some of the sounds you hear from the apparatus (spring board, floor, UB squeak) were borrowed from other clips if commentary was in the way of the original. i had a lot of fun with adding the various commentary and was happy to see how well the camera angle and frames matched up @ 1:11 between the flash transition of the floor exercise at OTs to the floor exercise at the OAA, that part turned out pretty cool "Two Steps from Hell" makes some great theatrical music, check out more of their stuff. I came across this particular song not too long ago and really wanted to use it, then i happened to see a tweet from Nast and it sparked ideas for this. special thanks to my fellow VC fanatic and elite basketball mixer    / maxamillion711   for always putting together inspiring work and giving me some great advice stop by his channel and check out his work, it's beyond professional
