Newfoundland Winter Storm

This Newfoundland Winter Storm video was shot using my brand new Macbook pro and the built in camera. I am just playing with the Youtube Quick Capture feature that allows you to record directly to Youtube and post with no editing..

It’s my first winter here in St. John’s and just about everyone has warned me about them. They are snowy, blowy and long. Lucky for me – I like winter. Well, especially the stay indoors part, feeling cozy while it’s stormy outside. As my friend Kelly said, all the more time to stay indoors and do art.

Today there is a winter storm warning. Lots of snow and wind to come.

Unfortunately, you can’t really see the gusts of wind blowing the snow until the very end at the 25 second mark. Snow is hard to capture on film and video, and even harder with a webcam.

Can you hear the gusts of wind? Not sure, I think I need a windsock for the microphone. Haha. But you can see my hair in the top of the frame as I struggle to position the mouse to stop recording.

Let’s see how I feel about winter in March, April and May – traditionally my least fave months.
