Here is some footage I grabbed when we were at the Draper Temple. I had my camera configured to overcrank (see this post if you don’t remember what that means) and so when I saw Tyler walking around with his Great-Grandpa I grabbed some quick candids. Enjoy!
P.S. I have several other videos that I’ve started making and never finished, so I better get those finished and posted soon. You will be able to tell they are old because Tyler looks a lot younger in them! Maybe if I didn’t try to make the videos so complex it would be easier to get them out more often….but then they wouldn’t be quite as fun, would they?
Today was sunny so we went outside for a few minutes to play in the grass. Tyler absolutely loves being outside, so we are looking forward to summer!
The slow-motion effect in the video was all done in-camera (not on the computer) using a technique called “overcranking”. Commonly used in filmmaking, it uses optical re-timing to create a natural and very clear slow motion effect by recording footage onto the camera at a much higher frame-rate than it will be played back at. In this video here, I recorded at 60 frames-per-second and then am playing it back at 24 frames-per-second, which gives you a playback speed of 40% when compared to to real-time. The inverse is also possible to do, if you want to make something move faster (like a car chase, etc.) and it’s called “undercranking”. Cool, huh?
Technically there was snow on the ground when Tyler was born, but this winter is the first time he actually realizes that it is there. He loves being outside, and so we figured he would love the snow as well…and we were right! Here’s a short video I threw together of Tyler’s first time playing in the snow!
Recently we have been faced with a mystery. Tyler (the new king of the living room) somehow manages to strew his toys all over the room in a manner of minutes, even though he still can’t crawl or walk. Being the astute parents that we are, we have devised a plan for discovering how he does it.
Today was a very special day, because Tyler was blessed by his Daddy at church. Thank you to all those that came to support us! Here are some photos from the special day:
Tyler is four weeks old now, and growing and changing every day. He has managed to turn himself over, and can support the weight of his head and move it around.
We hope you get a laugh out of watching this exclusive video that reveals a little more about what’s going on in our home!
It’s been two weeks since little Tyler was born, and things are going well. His parents are doing fine, even with all the side-effects of massive sleep deprivation . He especially enjoys spending time with Mommy, who works very hard to keep him clean and fed. Here are some highlights from his first two weeks. He grows and changes really fast!
We have a new addition to our family that we are very excited about! Here are some photos and video clips from the hospital, when he was less than 24 hours old!
