My Day in Japan

I spent a month in Japan from Nov-Dec in 2007. I wanted to record what one of my typical days entailed. I planned an outing to Ueno Zoo, afterwards I went to Kyudo practice. The video of the kyudo tournament is actually from a different day. I included it so I could keep the music going. I was actually able to compete in the tournament and placed something like #68 out of #98.Pictures are from random days also.Did all of the shots myself, which sometimes had me leaving my equipment running ontop of something while I walked into/out of the shot (that crosswalk scene at 3:23, I crossed the street, left my camcorder on the bumper of a car and waited. When the light changed, I ran back across the street, and then tried to calmly walk back towards the camcorder. Thankfully I got the shot in one take, my heart was racing the entire time!).I had to cheat a bit, on the way back from the zoo, I ran out of batteries for the camcorder. So when I got back, I recharged my batteries, ate and relaxed for a while. Then I put everything back on that I was wearing earlier and did the shots of me coming home and grabbing my stuff to head out again. The walk to the Asakusa Sports Center actually takes about 15 minutes and I had recorded most of the walk there, but I don't think anyone else would find that exciting but me.Music:Yoshida Brothers - Namonaki OkaExplosions in the Sky - Your hand in mineTech:Panasonic GS-500Canon Digital Rebel XTISony Vegas 7.0
