First place in the @actifit video contest | some big thanks!steemCreated with Sketch.

Today has been another great day.

Hello there followers old and new.
Today I’ve spent 7+ hours out and about, alone with my 1.5yr and 5yr old kids; buzzing around the town centre, cafes, the park and a friends house.

All in search of toys, adventure and sustenance.

I’m once again burnt out probably more than any other physical or mental activity I have attempted in the last year. Honestly it’s exhausting but in a good way, of course :)

However, the day started off with a brilliant bang.

I’m pleased to say that I woke up this morning to a notification from @coruscate blog post alerting me that my video won the @blocktrades sponsored @steemonboarding video contest to promote the @actifit app!

Check out my video here:
https://youtu.be/2h60jDX8S6Q

I was (and still am, obviously) very chuffed to with this outcome, as I was genuinely unsure how the video would go down with the Actifit community, given that I’m so new to the app.

Everyone has been so welcoming and had only lovely things to say about my contribution. So thank you to those who commented and upvoted :)

Thank you @coruscate and @anomadsoul for putting on this, and other fantastic video contests to help promote these awesome apps on our beloved STEEM blockchain.

A big thanks is also due to @radicalpears for her patience and help in making sure I got this video made in time. You’re ace.

Now I’ve loved seeing the other entires from fellow Steemians to the contest, some of my favourite videos were from @ivansnz with this skilful cracker, @aussieninja with this charming and engaging look in to his awesome world and @bitrocker2020 with this nicely explained and super effective approach to his video

Cheers all for the kind words and I hope the video in some way helps attract and explain the concept a bit more to the world outside of our blockchain!

Very good @ashtv
You should post on dtube more, they give good upvotes there too.
it is nice that you are spending quality time with your kids they will surely never forget it :D

Thank you @cryptopie.
Yes I’ve posted to dTube a few times. Always hit or miss with the upvote. The last one didn’t get anything. Not sure how their algorithm works.

I love my family, and give my kids absolutely everything I have - time, attention, love - whilst they’re so small and need it ❤️

Dude, just saw your video.
Brilliant and creative.
By the way, we have a skateboarding community on Steem called @steemskate.
I don't know if you have ever hear of Steemskate but as a fellow skater I would love to see some footage of you rolling.
Cheers and have a great day bro.

Mate, thank you so much for saying so.
I was unaware of @steemskate - just had a quick look, it looks ace!
Some serious skaters on STEEM by the looks of it.

It’s been a while for me since I’ve been out, so I thought it was a good thing to get back in to for the @actifit video.

I’ll see about trying some tricks again. I had basic skills; kickflip, pop shove it, variel-kickflip (rarely) and occasional low-level board slide. Good memories!

So happy to hear that you will be skating again.
You have some serious editing skills so watching a nice #Steemskate video by you would be dope man.

By the way, the new @Steemskate contest just begun if you wanna take a look.
Not much Steem prices involved at the moment, but we all do it for the fun.
Can't wait to see some skating.
Have a great day bro.

Thaaaaaanks @bluengel!

Posted using Partiko iOS

well deserved!
I just realised how that "fake" lens flare adds a lot to the dynamics of the video (i do hope it is fake and i am not wrong :D )

Cheers @bil.prag.
Yeah they called ‘light leaks’, used to emulate that leaking light effect with film. They can be downloaded and overlayed pretty easily, but I prefer to shoot my own.
I might do a post on how I make my own light leaks!

I like to think they help break up the narrative and structure of the video in a visual way

Posted using Partiko iOS

yap, not a flare, a light leak. that would be interesting to see

Posted using Partiko Android

Yeah I use it quite a bit
