Wild Turkeys

Wild Turkeys

These wild turkeys are living in my neighborhood. They make a mess out of the lawn, get into the garbage and generally upset the dogs. They were hanging out in my backyard until my dog, Sam King Of The Backyard, chased them away.

First video of the year. Sam playing in the backyard. After a hiatus of almost a year, I'm finally getting my act back together. While this is a pretty simple video it's a start. Today was one of those days when I just wanted to tape something and post it.

Recently I was asked to translate an earlier satire on Rocketboom into French. I did this by first translating the script into French at the Google language tools web site: http://www.google.com/language_tools?hl=en Then I used the Natural Voices demo on the AT&T Labs site to turn the text into speech: http://www.google.com/language_tools?hl=en Finally I pulled the audio clips into Premiere Pro and adjusted them as best I could to line up with the original speech.
