Video forums have been roasting me over the idea of not editing any video. I keep the video segments short, very short. Just don't play any segments that are no good. Shoot multiple clips if the event is worthwhile Shoot many short videos at every event. I've done around a 100 are rodeo and demo derby day. If you have to edit. Display the desired segments on a screen and video that in. Quick and Dirty, but it works. Most of forums have now Blocked, Suspended, Locked & Terminated the post. There will be a flood of unedited video. This is just the first ripple. What's got them so riled up about the idea of people not having to edit video.
Hollywood spends time and $$$ building rails, to make camera movements smooth. I've learned to move with the camera and take out the footsteps. The jiggle is reduced and the excitement increases. Don't even try, going through heavy bush with a camera steady. You will miss more shots, by adding too much equipment. When I walk up to a big squirrel den and check out some of the entry holes people are glued to the examination of that mound. This kind of movement, wasn't done easily before, because the equipment was huge and unwieldly. I say take the camcorder and "run with it" I've been re-reading the posts, where I still have viewing privileges. Some of the banter was hilarious. Anybody interested in carrying on the cause in those "BANNED" forums? If you capture really good video it's hard to edit any of it.
