Jim Munroe’s “Infest Wisely” interview at the Vancity Theatre
by Warren
Author and filmmaker Jim Munroe was in Vancouver on September 23rd for Vidfest, a digital/new media conference. He was here to show Infest Wisely, a “lo fi sci fi” movie that replaces expensive special effects with ideas, and yelling crew members with collaboration between seven teams to create one feature film. On a personal note, I tried to cut this with Final Cut Pro at first, but then I realized I was unnecessarily adding B-Roll and other holdovers from my TV editing days, when all anyone really wants is to hear what Jim has to say. So I dipped into iMovie and got this video done in about an hour. While I’m going to stick with FCP for documentaries and shorts, iMovie would seem to be the way to go for fast videoblogging.
