XMAS Card 2010

Today I present the Atkinson family's 2010 Christmas card!

Handwritten cards? So last century. Photo cards ordered and sent from Shutterfly? So last decade. E-cards? Not good enough. This year I decided to create a big project for myself and it turned out pretty weird. Good and weird and funny (I hope).

I created the video above with

the camera in my android phone,
drawings in GIMP by the kids,
a poem I found on Project Gutenberg,
audacity to record the reading,
music from an old 78 RPM record on archive.org,
Kdenlive to author the video, and
Ubuntu Linux (of course).

Hurrah! The days are getting longer! The sun will be brighter! May your life be filled with peace and joy!
