Otto in HD

Dad here. We've been a little remiss in posting due to guests and a leaky bathroom (that is now in full demolition mode). Anyway, to tide everyone over, here's a quick video of Otto taken with my new Panasonic HVX200 HD video camera (with music kindly lent to us by Rick Benjamin).

Note: In the final three shots observe Otto's precise attention to the rules of continuity editing. He graciously placed the toy in his mouth exactly at the cue point I outlined for him when discussing the scene's emotional pull. It allowed me to cut the shots together seemlessly . . . he's a director's dream to work with.

It doesn't hurt that he is so cute either. Too bad he is camera shy.
