2009 April Black Belt Graders
I provide a short highlight video footage for the students going for black belt on April 5, 2009.
Since hosting the video file on this website can be slow – I have chosen to place the video onto youtube
I am still figuring out the best format to upload the video in. I also want to get an HD format up too, but my video camera only does 720×576 pixels, which is not HD. So I uploaded a "fake" HD format resolution of 960×720 pixels (upscaled of course) and the file to download ended up being over 118MB from youtube.
In the end, I uploaded a 720×576 file that was around 56MB to upload to youtube. Although, when you watch it, the "normal" quality is a 18.2MB download while the "Higher" quality (the HQ icon) is 18.6MB. So, if it plays smoothly – watch the HQ version.

The High Quality youtube video is finally up, and it’s a small file-size download too, now.
Youtube is great! isn’t it?

I don’t think people understood that this video was kept private and also required a specific youtube login to view it.
I have now opened the video (on youtube) to the public, and since everyone can view it there – then there is no need to make this article private, either.
I need specific instructions from either the two main people involved (Olivia Cable or Amira Ahmad-Niza) or their instructors/guardians to make this private (members only) again, if you wish.

[...] There were two students (one from Mandurah-Falcon and one from Coolbellup) going for their black belts. As expected, their grading was the longest and occupied a substantial amount of time. It provided a great opportunity for the lower ranks and new members to watch and observe the requirements to reach black belt standards. [...]
