I have now discovered putting music to my little animal clips. As ever, when I add a new layer of complexity to whatever projects I'm working on, I feel a pull to go back and update every single thing I have done in the past so that it meets my new standard. Once I just had pictures. Then they all had to have animals, and suchlike, magicked into them. Then they had to be able to become realistic live video footage. And now they have to have their own song to go with it.
I enjoy doing it, but going back and updating past clips to my newer standard may or may not happen. There are so many things I am interested in making right now that it's an issue of time. It doesn't take me very long to write a short bit of lyrics. And generating a song is frankly all too easy. All the time cost comes in choosing between the smorgasbord of delightful 30 second songs. Do I choose the one that sounds like Ella Fitzgerald, or the one that sounds like Tom Waits? Whatever I don't choose will never ever ever see the light of day.
Anyway, here are some of my first "Talkies", so to speak. They are all new and not retrofitted. As ever, click the picture for it to come to life, but they have sound too, if you are interested in putting in your headphone, or turning on the volume, or whatever.

If you were wondering, yes, you should comment. Not only does it remind me that I must write in intelligible English because someone is actually reading what I write, but it is also a pleasure for me since I am interested in anything you have to say.
I respond to pretty much every comment. It's like a free personalized blog post!
One last detail: If you are commenting on a post more than two weeks old I have to go in and approve it. It's sort of a spam protection device. Also, rarely, a comment will go to spam on its own. Give either of those a day or two and your comment will show up on the blog.
