I’m pretty sure that the only members of my family who still look at our website on a regular basis are my mom & my sister (Hi guys). So I’m going to post a little video that is really meant for the Sommerer Family Website (sorry about stealing your family motto, Hofmans).
My Aunt Naomi sent me a bunch of her old home movies, and I edited them down to some clips that would be of interest to our extended family (though I actually think that more than what I included would be interesting to them). Since I’m doing these home movie edits quickly, I wait until I’m done before I add the music (otherwise I obsess over matching the beat and such). This time I decided that the clips could be a little more dramatic.
I think Brad said something about doing this, but I can’t remember exactly what he said. I’ll change the soundtrack before I share it with the family. Anyone have a suggestion?







Hehe… I told you about doing that for music class with Edward Scissorhands. A really touching scene can be really sinister if you change the music.
The beginning of your movie made me thing of “Our Gang”, suggesting music from here: http://heustess.com/music.htm “Good Old Days” is the one I know so well.
Ha! (I listened to the first one -- ‘beautiful’ something.)
That was grand….can you pull a picture from the group photo that we could post with who is in it?
I thought about that. I’ll see if I can, but it won’t be very good.
It doesn’t matter the quality…just to put it up and see how much all the young people looked like the young people then.
I like Brad’s music choice…I think it would go nice!
Okay, I did it. Are you happy now? Except, you can’t see it for 2 weeks --unless you look at the calendar.
Hahaha! I LOVED that music! It’s perfect for the creepy homemade wagon vehicle, followed by the ‘gardeners’… they look just like the Klopeks. I’m betting your family has a good sense of humor…I say keep this music.
But if you must change it, I think Brad’s suggestion is perfect! Or maybe:

That’s a good one, but I thought you were going to recommend this one.
HA…I almost went with that one…you know, I really do like that song!
I vote for Brad’s “Our Gang’s” “Good Old Day’s”!!!!!
or I still like mine too.
