The raising of the tree

We put up the Christmas tree today, and while we have documented the event in pictures in the past, this year atara suggested taking a series of pictures as we went to see if we could assemble an animation.

I set up my camera on the tripod, and popped over to snap the shutter every couple of minutes. The camera moved a bit, and the lighting changed a few times so it has all the hallmarks that one would expect of a low-budged home animation. I like it.

This is my first attempt at making a movie of any kind. It is supposed to have music, but at some point Youtube is probably going to notice that the clips I used are from copyrighted work and, fair use aside, they will probably mute it.

Now that the tree is up, it's time to start with the baking.
