Droning 202 by Louigi Verona

We are hovering above a city, looking at the streets and buildings. Each of those is full of people, each with his own life, circumstances, world view, friends, family and a story…
And we are just flying over, travelers, saying hello and saying good bye and moving on to fields and long roads and then to another city…

Our resident Blues Man and psychedelic mood movie maker Dave Phillips goes by the name of NewNairobi1 on You Tube. Check out his videos…

A collaborative work from AVSynthesis and Kdenlive. The title is from the soundtrack, an ambient music piece composed for another AVSynthesis session. The original video sequence was divided into five sections in Kdenlive, then each section is treated to a Vignette effect and another effect unique to the section. Other effects include the Blur, Mirror, and Baltan transforms.
