Adam F Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 Guys,Managed to clip together a bit of footage from this year's Alderney trip on JV. You'll need to watch it on a PC as opposed to mobile device, as silly US Copyright laws prevent it from being available on all media.Was a little short of footage this time around due to skippering, catching and filming but nonetheless I've managed a snappy 2 min film to give you a taste of the trip.https://youtu.be/t7ogKlpaGysAdam Stuie, Mal Thomas, Maverick Martin and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam F Posted September 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 I find it hard to get to the meetings nowadays but if I could in the near future id be happy to run through the GoPro and how to manage the footage?

Maverick Martin Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 That would be a great topic. My boys bought me a gopro which has been sat on my desk waiting for me to have a go for months now. Would be good to get kick started into using it Greg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 Martin Would it be Okay for me to bring Brad along to the meeting as we bought him a GoPro for his Birthday this Summer and he would benefit greatly from Adam's talk and editing details?

Maverick Martin Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 Greg no problem with Brad coming to the meeting, he is after all a member Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Martin Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 Just checked and confirmed with Tony we already have a speaker booked for October. November is free as is Jan, Feb & March next year, can you do any of these dates Adam? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 Adam won't be able to do it so you'll have to do it yourselves. I can't do it cos I've forgotten. If you're over 18. . . . . . . 1 ) Go and buy a few beers. 2 ) If you're in the same room as someone else get your headphones. 3 ) Go online to youtube. 4 ) Open a beer. 5 ) search for things like this: If you're under 18 soft drinks only Enjoy your evening.

Adam F Posted September 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 No problem, I'll aim for Nov then. Charlie, if I still get to the meeting I'm happy to run through a few basics so you can use it on your hols. My best advise in the meantime is to get hold a a mixed mounting kit, something like this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181930585666 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Plus tips on making footage are prob more important before you go Charlie. Key thing is try and make slow if moving \ rotating, steady lengthy shots. nothing worse than having loads of 10 second shots to stitch together.

Adam F Posted September 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Two key areas to all of this really - 1) getting the best raw footage you can and 2) stitching it all together. For the first bit - it really helps if you can have a bit of an idea in your head of what the finished vid may look like - 'start with the end in mind' This will then give you a virtual list of what shorts you need. This is where the big box of mounts come in - you can really add some interest to your videos by having a variety of mounts and angles. Getting a steady shot is important, however dont be too paranoid about the whole clip being dead steady - in reality you'll want just a few seconds of steady clear footage, the rest gets clipped out.

great white Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Thanks guys this year we are going with Wills son Stuart who hopefully knows how it all works, including control through a phone [which eats battery life] or by the remote. I am borrowing Dan's camera and all of his attachment's, we may even squeeze the pole in the rod tube. Dan and I bought extra batteries and a double charger, so hopefully that should not be an issue again. the best shots last year were shore ones with the camera on a small tripod. The bigger fish on the boats took too long to get in and need to start stop the camera too often. Jim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul J Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Good job Adam and a cool topic, i like a good fishing Vid. As Adam and Rob suggested having a plan ( storyline/sequence) really helps cut out short random shots, filming instead of fishing is the hard bit PJ Jim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
