Hi Dick,
You made a fantastic video for our group! I've seen quite a few parade floats over the years, but I've never seen how they're actually made or the full creation process. The artists and participants put in such incredible hard work, assembling countless pieces into these beautiful final artworks.
Your video is amazing-colorful, smooth, and full of great multi-angle camera movements. The close-ups really highlight all the intricate details.
One small suggestion: using the keyframe function to zoom in and out during post-editing would probably be smoother and easier than adjusting the distance with the phone or camera while shooting.

Peter and Boskee,
After reading your comments and then watching my video again I must agree with you about the zoom in and out function. Compaired to both of your videos, my vidiography looked very amaturish.
I was thinking that for our next video, lets all of us copy my video "2025 Rose Float Preperation" and then re-edit it. I would love to see your editing skills with my amaturish video.
Dick
