For over 44 years, this annual Christmas tradition takes place in Downtown San José at the Plaza de Cesar Chavez.

The lens cover are an issue but I guess I am paranoid about scratching the lens. Either way I hope it brings you the Christmas Spirit.

Very nicely done Sidd.

Thank you TreeTops. Christmas in the Park is a cool little display that attracts tons of folks. They also have an outdoor ice skating rink I am gonna try and check out.

Cool effect in the tunnel at 1:42. The wide angle added spice. Very nice filming throughout. Nice and steady. The park want the video as a promotional video.

"The park want(s) the video as a promotional video." Sidd...Why don't you contact the organizers of that park display and ask them if they could use your professional video of their event. Maybe they will even offer to pay you for the right to use it.

Thanks Mom. I try to use the wide angle as an effect (not to every-ones liking), but is helps capture the bigness of the scene, Insta360 has "Flowstate" which does a great job of keeping things super smooth. The effect at 1:42 is called "tiny planet" which I did as a transition.



Mom & TreeTop great idea. I just sent them an e-mail with a link to the video free of charge. The exposure would do better than any payment and might lead to additional videos.

Thanks again for watching and a Merry Christmas to all.

Sidd, I've watched your video several times since you posted it and it's wonderful!! I'm so glad they loved it and will use it! CONGRATS!!!

Thank you for the kind words. Never occurred to me to send it but I am glad I did. Helps keep the creative juices flowing.

Sidd

That was great Sidd. Nice holiday spirit too.

Thanks Ed. It’s a cool little display in downtown. It’s looks better in the evening with all the lights but there are also huge crowds there too.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Sidd
