Guys, I have a 1080p video I took of everyone going to the dam on Saturday morning. It is 351 meg. There is a section in the middle that needs to be edited out because of delay when a truck got in between the Crossfires and slowed them down causing a large gap in the parade.

My current PC will not run a 1080p video very well and I have no editing software to correct it. Can 1080 be reduced to 360 or 480 or even 720?

What are my options here so everyone has a chance to see it or even copy it for themselves? I would prefer it be corrected before available for everyone to copy. Video is new to me so talk laymen.

Can I upload it somewhere so someone can edit it? Can a 351 meg file be attached in email? I am open for suggestions here.

Thanks, James

PS it is .mov file

 

You can upload it in HD to youtube and anyone can download and edit it. You won't be emailing anything that size for another 5-10 years. Just upload it as-is and one of us can do the rest.

 

I have no video editing skills, so i can't be of any help but i have sent my entire hard drive over messagers such as AIM.

 

What I can see is the some of the begining needs to be lost. Then :52 to 1:33 needs to be removed, then ending at 3:00. Remember this is my first time. When I bought the camera I never realized video was evne on there.

Thats what makes you so special James!
Just don't let 180 notice...

 

Thanks for posting, looks like an exciting time and I plan on attending the next Dragon..

 

Thanks James for posting that video

 

Love watching that video.
An edited version will be excellent.

 

Great video and thanks for posting it up. For a moment I thought it was on a continuous loop until I saw the Durango and Mini.

 

Ok, I am waiting...

 

If you think THAT was exciting (and it WAS fun) you should have been on the Skyway on Saturday.

 

James once uploaded to Youtube you can then edit it there with the Youtube editing tools

 

Thanks Nick. Basically it will let you edit or trim off the begining and end. Couldn't figure out if I could edit a section out of the middle.

 

I've got video editing software and could help you out if no one else has an opportunity. So just let me know if you need help...

 

Sure I could use the help. 0:30 to 1:15 needs to be removed. Thank you.

 

Sure, I sent you a PM.

 

Thanks to Annette and to Evan for all your help in getting this together. I noticed Gary closed the original Dragon thread, maybe he can copy this post and place it over there as well.

 

Just noticed this...I have posted it into the main Dragon thread.

Thanks to the editors that helped out here !!

 

James, if you have Windows 7, by chance, it has a resident HD video editing program on board.

 

If you still need help editing the original HD video, drop me an email (towncrier@gmail.com) and I can tell you how to upload the original video to my website where I can edit it for you. If the youtube version is adequate, that's great. I apologize for not seeing this sooner.
