CicLAviawesome

For the CicLAvia fundraiser last Saturday (that I couldn’t attend because I was out walking the Eastside with a buncha cool people) I was invited to submit my timelapse that I made while riding across the event’s route between Boyle Heights and East Hollywood, to be included in a showcase with the immortalizings several other cycling enthusiasts made of the amazing day.

Thus I retooled the version seen by a couple thousand people on YouTube a bit,  employing my meager iMovie skillset to stretch it into a 16×9 format, and add opening and closing credits — I even partnered it with an ambiently surreal soundtrack of my own creating using a sweet little iPhone app called Bloom.

So in case, like me, you weren’t one of the good people in attendance last week, I offer it up for your viewing pleasure here:

Will Campbell arrived in town via the maternity ward at Good Sam Hospital way back in OneNineSixFour and has never stopped calling Los Angeles home. Presently he lives in Silver Lake with his wife Susan, their cat Rocky, dogs Terra and Hazel, and a red-eared slider turtle named Mater. Blogging since 2001, Will's web endeavors extend back to 1995 with laonstage.com, a comprehensive theater site that was well received but ever-short on capital (or a business model). The pinnacle of his online success (which speaks volumes) arrived in 1997, when much to his surprise, a hobby site he'd built called VisuaL.A. was named "best website" in Los Angeles magazine's annual "Best of L.A." issue. He enjoys experiencing (and writing about) pretty much anything creative, explorational and/or adventurous, loves his ebike, is a better tennis player than he is horr golfer, and a lover of all creatures great and small -- emphasis on "all."
