Hey guys, I had the opportunity to travel to Japan this summer and I met this man and decided that I would like to make a mini doc on him. I know many of you are not into or familiar with kendama, but my hope is that this video is also enjoyable for non-kendama players. Please let me know what...

Hey guys! Here's a new edit I made from some footage I shot last season. Let me know what you think. It's a bit short because we didn't get to shoot much due to the weather. Critiques are welcome! Thanks guys, Matt

Hey guys, here's a little new edit. For this edit, I wanted to try filming more in 24p. I also had one day to film with him, so I wanted to see what I could do with all glidecam stuff, a little faster pace. Let me know what you guys think! Thanks! Matt

Hey guys, we've had a bunch of sunny days this year and have got to film a ton. While filming, I went back and forth whether I should use 2.35:1 so I apologize for some of the chopped off heads, hah. Anyway, I would love to know what you guys think I could improve for my future edits. Thanks...

Hey guys! Here's a new edit I made. I would love for you guys to critique it and give me your advice. Thanks guys! Matt

Hey guys! We just released our newest movie and I wanted you all to see. Kendama has opened up some amazing doors for me, and I hope this film shows you guys what kendama is really about. I encourage you guys to set aside some time to watch this because it's so long. Sit back, relax, and enjoy...

1080 60p, translucent sensor, FF, autofocusing. Thoughts? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/indepth/sony/announcements/sony-introduces-alpha-slt-a99-full-frame-hdslr

Hey guys, we've been working on this film for the past few months. I thought you guys might enjoy the trailer. Let me know what you guys think! Where We Are- Wenatchee Kendama Team- Official Trailer from Matthew Ballard on Vimeo.

Hey guys, I've been in the hunt for some good ol swoosh sound effects. I've been looking all over and haven't been able to find any decent sounding ones. Does anyone have any or know where to get some? Here are some examples- Bobby Brown // Solar System // UA MTN from UA MTN on Vimeo...

So it has been awhile since I made a kendama edit of just myself. Now that I'm off school, I had some time to edit this. Anyway, I wasn't originally going to post this, but I thought some of you guys might like it. Matthew Ballard | Edit 4 | 4 Tricks from Matthew Ballard on Vimeo. Enjoy, Matt

Hey guys! I just worked on this video with a few of my classmates for some extra credit. We really didn't take too long to film and weren't really concerned with some of the authenticity (clothes and such) of the video. Still though, I would love to know what you guys think of the rest of the...

Hey guys! I got the chance to film with Noah Wallace a few weeks back and this is what we came up with. I know the glidecam shots aren't 100% perfect, but I would love to know what you guys think about the whole thing! Thanks guys, Matt

Hey guys, I wanted to know what you guys do to protect your cameras from snow/rain. After reading so much in M&A about how T2is were fine in blizzard conditions, I wasn't too worried about my 60D while I was filming a few weeks back in some medium snow conditions. I put it into my backpack...

So I am looking to get a uv filter for protection on my Tamron 17-50 that I use with my glidecam. I've been looking around and there seems to be a large variety of them that range from 10-150 dollars. I've also heard that they can make your image softer. Does anyone have recommendations on one...

Hey M&A! So I can say this is the first ski edit I've been super pleased with. As always, let me know what you guys think and how I can improve! Matt

Hey M&A! So a few things. This summer I will be shooting some interviews (and more in the future) and I want to upgrade my audio set up (currently have the rode video mic pro with my 60D.) I've read through some audio threads and I understand a bit of how it all works. For the interviews, I am...

Yo guys! So I decided to throw together what little footage I had to make this edit. It's not much, and we only really got two shots (trick wise). Check it out and please let me know your thoughts/what I can improve on! Thanks, Matt

Hey guys! We are starting a new webisode called "The Middle". Please share your thoughts and rate! This edit was different than most because I prefer tripod shots but these guys love to lap so it was a good chance to work with my new glidecam. So please, fire away! Also, I know already that...

Hey guys, So I shot this vid I while ago and finally got around to editing it. I think this was my first time shooting with the 60D, but I would still love to know what you guys think and any recommendations! Yes, I know the ball keyframe thing is cheesy, but that's what they wanted. Anyway...

After seeing countless threads about what settings to use in vegas, I thought I would share my knowledge from using Vegas after along time. So rather than re-explaining it, people can look here or we can send them here. I use Pro 10 but it should be the same for the other versions too. 1. The...
