Boonville’s Best Gentlemen’s Club

Four weeks and 6,480 pictures later, here’s my audio slideshow about the Boonville Airport. There are some things I’d still like to change: the stop-action is a bit messy, and there’s not as much visual unity between the pictures as I would like.

But I’m happy with how it turned out, and it was a lot of fun to make.

I’m not happy enough with this project yet to call it “finished.” I put together a rough cut of my audio and pictures, and it’s *alright*, but I headed back out to the airport yesterday to get a little more.

All told, I think I collected an hour’s worth of audio yesterday. Getting pictures yesterday was sort of a secondary concern, but I got two or three usable ones.

I’m still not wholly comfortable with audio slideshows—by which I mean, I’m still not great at getting material for it. I’m very comfortable getting singles & captions, and I’m not UNcomfortable working with audio. But I’m not very good at balancing the two. And while I’m happy with a lot of the pictures I’ve taken here (and I’ve taken many—about 3,000) I’m not sure they mesh together in a cohesive way.

But whatever. I’m better at audio slideshows than I was five months ago, so I suppose that’s something.
