I didn't notice it looking steeper than 30 degrees. The biggest problem
I saw other than the lousy camera work and the stupid attempts at
special effects, was the consistent landing well left of the centerline.


You had two rookies in the plane :-)


:-) At least being a rookie is a temporary condition!


I'm not used to being a cameraman and she has only had her VFR ticket
for one month. She wasn't **that** far off the centerline so we need
to give her some slack. Of course until now, you ddin't know that..


Actually, I wouldn't give her slack as that just leads to sloppy flying
going forward. Always strive for perfection and you will slowly get
better. Accept 3 feet left of center line and you will always be
landing off the center line (she looked at least that far off and
probably more as it appeared that even the right main was left of
centerline at touchdown). Always strive to plant the nose wheel on the
centerline.


While in my other videos, fades work best based on the music. For
example if you look at my video "I can only Imagine" at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uP17DO1U3c fades are more effective,
then zany transitions. The average time per picture in this video is
3 seconds based on the beat of the song.

In this "I am Woman video", since it was an upbeat song, and fast
paced, figure to spice up the effects with something different. I
timed the effects with either a beat to the music or a specific word
in the song.


Well, it is a personal preference thing, but I didn't even watch the
entire clip before I was tired of it and stopped ... and it wasn't that
long of a clip!
