This is the 2004 Christmas letter set to video.
The original version of this video was done in 2010, but soon hit the cutting room floor. The re-do was done in 2014, and kept the first-time use of floating pics against a backdrop, and got a totally revamped music track and a much smoother look. Still not good enough, some transitions were cleaned up, and a more suitable track replaced another, for the 2020 update.
Video software is Cyberlink Power Director 8 originally, and Power Director 14 for the final version.
