"La Parade de Noël" was my first production I created with a PC, back in 1996. It's about the Christmas Parade in Disneyland Paris, rhythmically edited on a nice piece of Dixieland music.
In order to get enough suitable footage for "La Parade" I have visited Disneyland Paris at least 20 times during 1992 - 1996. I even had an "All Year Passport" for two years. During the Winter season I sometimes visited the park up to three times a month.
All footage was shot on Video8 and Hi8. I first used a Sony TR60E camcorder (Video8), later replaced by a Sony TR2000E (Hi8). After editing, "La Parade" was mastered on S-VHS tape.
It's hard to believe nowadays, but "La Parade" is a complete analog production and all editing has been done on a PC with (only...) a 150 MHz Cyrix CPU, a 1.2GB Seagate IDE harddisk, a 4.3GB Quantum GrandPrix SCSI harddisk and a Q-Motion analog capture card.
Editing software I used was Ulead MediaStudio Pro 2.5.
