A buddy of mine bought 2 Jet Skis this last month. <br />I was on the deck boat and took some digital video of them with my Sony Mavica CD-R digital camera. It records video for up to 15 seconds, not great but kinda neat...<br />I use Movie Maker which comes with Win XP service pack 2. <br />I've never used it before but it was really easy to make the movie, just drag n drop. The hardest part was deciding the music to go with it. <br />It took me maybe 35-45 minutes to put this together.<br />I also used a program called "Fraps" to capture footage from my Flight Sim 2004 of me landing on the lake the jet ski footage was shot at. (Lake Dora @ Tavares, FL.)<br />I just imported that footage into the real video.<br /><br />Sorry, I just got the video uploaded, it works now. I exceeded my allowed space and had to remove files. It is about 22 megs in size.<br /><br />Also, I had to upload a version that does not have the Flight Sim footage in it.<br /><br />Heres the link<br /> http://home.comcast.net/~tpd211/Movie.wmv

Triggerr, for some reason the clip stops right after the jet ski starts.

Nice movie, dude!!! Good job, worked fine for me!! You did really great putting that together...and you did all that with a Mavica? I owned one of those with a 1.44 disk...it would take one omiute of video and sound. I now have an HP camera, adn really it is my wife's...I want to get one with a high power zoom, perhaps an SLR body, but that is a lot of cashola:) Keep up the great work!!! Memoried in teh making:)

Hey aspeck BTDT :( but even with dsl it took like 4-6 mintutes to load and I was getting real bored!<br /><br />However Triggerr Great job! Liked the way you cut and spliced (old terms) between scenes! Just when I was starting to feel (big headed) about getting a picture scanned in or getting a avatar to work you show us this! Arrrg <br />That was really great. :)

Very great movie Triggerr. It took about 10seconds to load in media player (cable high speed). Seems like a very pretty lake too.
