  • What a great piece. You really captured the beach culture. GL. It just goes to show that you don't have to use pro editing software to tell a good story. (am I correct in assuming that you used iMovie?)

  • Thanks for the comments weskandel. Yes, I agree, you don't need pro editing software to tell the story, you need a good story and flow and rhythm. I've played on a number of top 10 hit records and they were recorded in modest studios.

    Yes, I used a combination of iMovie, FinalCut Express and Livetype. I use a lot of Gee Three plugins for iMovie also.

  • Well I'm already a fan of yours so I'm biased. Once again great pieces of work!!!!!
  • Excellent introduction and a good overview of the cultural treats on Brazilian beaches. I was a little thrown off by the bilingual nature of the pod- why not do two different pods in two different languages? It was nice that you introduced local people's businesses and highlighted them though, whereas most travel shows just go to the biggest places with the most money. I wanted to learn more about the place, though, to get more views of the beach and the different things that people see there. Overall, a great pod.

  • i didn't understand a single word she said but i was in rio several years back with the navy and I want to go back, where is it best to stay in brazil?
  • The male host is actually repeating in English what the female host says in Portuguese. So there's nothing lost in translation. Best place to stay in Brazil - that's a tough question, there are too many beautiful places to see, but the best place to stay in Rio de Janeiro is Ipanema

  • A fantastic and accurate glimpse in to beach life in Rio on Ipanema.

    I love the mix of English and Portuguese. Maybe more subtitles of what the people are saying would help those that don't speak the language.
