Mooloolaba Beach, Queensland, Australia

Video made from holiday photos

I spent a week with my family at Mooloolaba during January 2010 and took about 200 photos. I sifted through these photos and used about 60 to create this music video with Animoto. It's fun to revisit the images and recapture the experience with the video.

With so many photos I could make multiple videos with a different focus each time. So lots of fun ahead.

I'm using Tube Mogul to promote the videos.

Mooloolaba Rocks

Nature's playground

As can be seen from the images in this video, I could look down onto the Mooloolaba rocks from my holiday unit when I went for a week's holiday at Mooloolaba Beach. People would regularly gather there to watch the waves crashing over the rocks or to frolic in the rock pools. It was very much like nature's playground.

The digital photos I took were converted to video using the Animoto Program. It's fun to revisit the images and recapture the experience with the video.
