Only In Dreams: Surf the Crop Circle Of Bud (music slideshow)

[Hobbes]

.

One of the reasons that I'm doing the video is to develop methods of non verbal communication for working in areas that people don't speak English, I'd like to be able to tell the CCOB story without text, it may take longer to develop Only In Dreams into a usable tool but the process will help me with other areas of my project.

This is version 6, it's starting to come together into a story. I'll work on frame transition and image placement but there are so many images, 240 in 7m 59s, that I want to do less - only add effect to enhance the story. Feedback is appreciated!

This slideshow illustrates the Crop Circle of Bud system at different stages, from clone cuttings through harvest and on to tincture. I made the video as a primer for growers new to Crop Circle Of Bud theory, so you can have visual anchors if you want to learn the concepts behind our methods. Weed Science (ebook link below) is already over 700 pages of theory and pictorials and I've only complied a fraction of my research and experiments on RollItUp, and that is only a fraction of what is yet to be done. I wanted to offer an introduction that all new growers can experience in a few minutes while relaxing with their vaporizer, even if they're not interested in growing CCOB. Sit back and enjoy.


It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.


Please offer advice on improvements: methods that need more coverage or areas that drag. Thanks.

Hobbes you are the man no a grow god

i noticed you had two vap bags filling at one time i was doing one after the other =two
then i noticed they were oven stuffer roaster bags for chicken that came with my extreme i went to supermarket and got one for turkeys now i just do one big one instead of two smalls

oh my question why do you criss cross when you LST with the two branches

 

[Hobbes]

Hey Dwezelitsame, thanks for the kind words!

"Why do you criss cross when you LST with the two branches"


There's a natural bow legged curve to the stems of a topped plant, when we cross the stems we can train the plant easily within a few minutes. If we bend against the stems' natural curves we could take a week to achieve the same results, and risk creasing or breaking the stem.​

i just watched vid again i could watch 100 times its great like a tv production
and the ebook a whole lot of information cramed in there
i cant buy you a drink so i threw a pl rep at you keep doing what you are doing
people like you can change this sad world of ours

"i just watched vid again i could watch 100 times its great like a tv production"

I've got to give Jon most of the credit for the video production, he has an incredible mind. He really is as laid back, yet intuitively intelligent, as he seems on TV - a man amongst men, and the ladies.

Love the weed science ebook..can see you put alot of love in every thing you do...plus rep

I hope that you all enjoy this first chapter, I'm starting my second video on assembling and operating a water column compressor from junked parts that refugees might have on hand. I think I've solved the communications problem - the refugees are going to help me to make videos for assembly and operations of the equipment that we'll be building. This process will require them to think about communication, it will take the pressure off of them for having to learn the science and being given gifts. Right away I'm going to them looking for their help making the videos and offering in exchange the equipment that we build.

For full page video follow the link to Vimeo, their hosting quality is fantastic.

I personally don't mind, but if you want these videos to go anywhere, you might want to watch out for the many copyright violations you made.

Also, I have been trying to follow this thread but the blue font and the centered text is horrible for this old mans eyes.

Don't get me wrong, I like what you are doing and I only bring up these suggestions so you will continue your production.

 

[Hobbes]

.

Thanks for the advice KuLong, I see what you mean about the curved font being difficult to read. I already know what the words say so I'm not really reading them, just scanning over. I'm going to change all of the comic script, centring and coloured font to black standard and left justified.

Regular text or bold?

.

"if you want these videos to go anywhere, you might want to watch out for the many copyright violations you made."

Without the many copyright violations there is no video - I'm not doing this as a commercial venture.

.

What about the video, centred or left?

I see potential in your videos and would like to see more. Would hate for some stick in the mud coming in and crying "copyright".

As for the font suggestions, I am not the right person to ask because I am probably not your targeted audience. I am more old school, plain text kind of guy.

Keep keeping on with the videos, I am enjoying them.

I've deleted the old videos, only the last version will work, of which we have one more. Lots of fun.

"amazing video great song and tasty looking buds man"

Thanks Guerillagrower! I've got another version uploading now, I'll post when done.

"leaks? celery? what is that around the 5 minute mark?"

Corn, I'm adapting the CCOB grow system for vegetables for refugees and for people without money.

I've planed some of the rough edges, it still needs sanding and polishing but the shape is beginning to show itself.

This is going to be my last version update for awhile, I've got 3 videos planned to have done or underway by Christmas and I still have the Water Column Compressor to finish. The first video will be a simple assembly and operations instructional for the WCC (Woman Where You Go); the second of the women using the WCC that I bring and making their own (Breathe Me - Sia); the third the story of their day, how they survive and how they find some joy or at least happiness in their lives (Superman - Five For Fighting). The pictures for these last two videos will be taken while on my trip to Africa in December, the first finished to take with me.

Only In Dreams: Surf the Crop Circle Of Bud is the animated companion version of Weed Science, the picture sequences follow the how-to pictorials in the ebook. There are 242 images in 8 minutes with very few repeats. I searched for places that I could weave in ideas, stories and themes from TV shows, movies, books, painting, sculpture, pop culture, comic books and my eternal hatred of Stephen CoBerT. Some images that you might notice:

- I created a sand worm scene from Dune during the trichome sequence - from a close up bud picture with only picture zoom, rotation and movement.
- "For everything Else there's Mastercard. Priceless!" with Jack The Ripper
- Phillip Abootman's incessant demands that President Obama nuke the NBA (CoBerT Free World)
- Mouth Of Madness (Bill Maher)
- Alien (Green Eye lit bud)
- building a heart for valentines
- Crystalline Entity, Star Trek (the blue flame from a spoon of the alcohol from my first distillation warping through black space, between the vaporizer and sublingual tincture sequences)
- Chronicles Of Riddick - the sublingual tincture spray bottle blur movements where modeled on the Lord Marshals ability to be in two places at the same time (more or less)
- I made several changes from Saladman's advice in post #463. In the root pruning bucket sequence he suggested adding a picture with two buckets side by side, to impress upon the viewer the two bucket system. I acknowledged his help by switching a red shorty Coke can for a larger blue Pepsi can, then back to the red Coke (in the same position) as the previous two pictures. The three pictures were taken a year apart, I found the same hole bucket (unique hand drilled hole patterns shown if the video is paused) and my rectangular black caliper case (coke can sitting on) and placed both on similar angles. He also advised on showing more of the cage near the first of the video, because of this I did my first zoom frames and sequences. Thanks Saladman, your help made the context of the scenes easier to understand and brought life to the video! You're also included in my limit of 20 tags for the video.
- Most of the plant transitions through flowering maturity are the same plants, the Lazarus sequence immediately following the {air floor / Volcano} series are my first Jillybeans from seed. The first is just after LST training for CCOB, the plants look wilted and come back to life and ripen in following pictures.
- The last transition from the whitish Strawberry Diesel at the end of flower into the Hobbes Icon - the 7 series of pictures before are the same sativa pheno at different stages of flower. It's stems collapsed under the weight of it's colas and had that fantastic picture at the end - I only rotated slightly and "framed" (see next post) the picture for transition, no effects.


(I'll go through the video and add more)


Images that I have not yet been able to, but am committed to capturing:

- Stephen ColBerT being publicly stoned with rancid eggs
- Stephen ColBerT being water boarded while wearing Mel Gibson's outfit from Braveheart
- Stephen ColBerT being finally exiled to space

What kind of world do you want? A ColBerT Free World.

Saladman I added this to the Only In Dreams video post above (#512). Thank you, you were an incredible help, your suggestions prompted me to look for new methods to focus the viewer's attention to specific images in a scene and how to introduce motion and momentum to influence perception throughout the video.

I've spent a lot of my time during the past few years researching through old threads here on RollItUP, virtually everything in the ebook Weed Science, and therefore the video Only In Dreams: Surf the Crop Circle Of Bud is influenced by posts and pictures made by forum members so numerous that I couldn't possibly remember let alone acknowledge everyone. Thank you.

From above ...

** I've found myself thinking in terms like "framing that picture" and "sound and image events" and it scares me, I'm concerned that I might become a hippie without noticing. I loose time, sometimes days, and it seems like months pop by undetected. I have a latent fear that I'll be working feverishly to prefect that one last "sound shape" and I'll reach back to rub the back my neck and there'll be pony tail and I'll be wearing a watch. The horror. The horror.

But until then, WE ROCK!
