I spotted this video via @FlipVideoBrand. This is a great example of a creative Flip Video called:
“Kassandra and Sean’s Eco-friendly Save The Date Video”
In their words:
5 hours of filming
4 hours of editing
3 legged tripod
2 crazy people in love
1 flip camera
PRICELESS DAY!!!
ENJOY!
So I got in touch with the creator and here’s some background info:
From Kassandra Taylor: “I edited the entire thing and we both directed it spontaneously throwing out ideas for the next take. Honestly, we didn’t really act…that’s how we are in real life. We basically headed out of our apt with a flip camera and tripod and were open to see where the day would take us. After we decided on a good shot, we would set up the tripod and camera in the right place and then both run to get in the shot (hoping nobody would steal the camera in the shots that were a little further away from us…but Sean was prepared to run, haha )
What inspired us…Our wedding is coming up in June and we wanted to create an eco-friendly/green way to do a save the date for all of our friends and family without wasting so much paper. So with both of us being performers, Sean-a musician, and I a professional contemporary ballet dancer…it seemed like the perfect solution to take a day and head to downtown Greensboro. We shot this on one of the first gorgeous days we had here in North Carolina and I came home that night and edited on Imovie with the antique filter. We are having a vintage indie DIY eco-friendly wedding in Atlanta…so it fits in perfectly with our theme.
We did this video as a unique and original save the date for only our family and friends…but if it inspires others to think about going more green with their weddings-that would be the ultimate bonus!”

I’ve just spotted this amazing new WordPress theme, released a couple of days ago. You can use ProfitsTheme for blogs, membership sites, sales pages etc. Profits theme does it all really easily.
Let’s say you are a fitness instructor and you want to use your Flip Video camera to create a money spinning membership site, where you charge people to access Video workout sessions. You collect the money and they get a password.
This theme can do it all for you (when combined with paypal) and it’s on a launch offer at $27 right now, rising to $97 next week. Do you want to make money from your expertise? Well it’s never been easier to set up a site that would have cost you £1000′s only a few years ago!
