Mid-tour video

We’ve passed the halfway point in our deployment, so I thought I’d throw together another video with snapshots of what we’ve done and how things have progressed. It took a little extra work because I’m not fully up to speed on my new editing software, but things are coming along and I’m able to output reasonably sized files now. The two links below are for you folks at home, if the guys here want a copy I can provide it via thumbdrive because we’d kill our connection bandwidth if everybody downloaded these individually. The larger file is a windows movie and is appx 36mb, while the smaller one is a mpg file which uses the Divx codec for compression. If you don’t have the Divx codec, you’ll have to go out and download it, but if you’re in the states you probably don’t have to worry about bandwidth like we do so just grab the big vid.

1280×720 High-Def Video (36mb)

320×240 Web sized Video (6mb)

Of note, the first tower shown (with the barbed wire in front) and the last image are the same tower, 6 months apart. The second to last image is from that same checkpoint. Yeah, by US standards things still suck out there, but they’ve come a long way.

Enjoy!
