CFz 25 and the macro/micro meet
4 months ago
Hello all!
Well last night we had the macro/micro meetup and many thanks to mistycrom for hosting the event - I hope I have the correct link there!
Had a good time this year however I didn't really end up taking many photos. Instead I decided to try out an idea which I was originally going to use at AC25 - but thanks to *ahem* a certian horrible orange politician I'm not going to be going to this years' AC and it'll be unlikely that I get to go until he has gone.
The idea involves using a small camera - in my case a gopro hero 11 and the longest selfie stick I could find for sale; the one I found which I think was on amazon is around 10-14ft (I forget exactly) in length; I'd have orginally used this at the fursuits' parade at AC to record it but since I'm not going I can't now do this.
Unfortunatly CFz dosen't have a fursuits parade any more so instead I got to use it at the macro/micro meetup. And it meant that I could have a "top-down" view since the selfie stick can be extended to such a long length or instread be used to get a "close up" view - useful since a tiny camera such as the gopros do not really have any zoom to speak of.
I now have about a dozen or so short clips - though recorded in 4K/60fps in total that fills about 16GB and that's a bit too much for this slow and ancient mini laptop I'm using at CFz to write this post now. So I'll have to wait until I get hope to post up the video.
Some of the clips are better than others as I still really have to learn how to get the gopro set up correctly so some clips will be OK, some ... not so much.
Will probably put the clips on my own server in time btw though as individual clips....I don't think anyone would want to have to wait for 16GB to load not to mention my slow internet connection!
