...but also Laptops.
Well once you read the 'body' of this post you may think 'rubbish' or 'yep beeen doing it for ages'. But here goes.
You have probably noticed JJ members have posted a 'few' pictures of late but just about no videos. Das cos we dont have peeps comming to meets with video cameras ( or in Dark Castles case, he just hasnt edited and published the footage he's got).
Well , last Sunday rob ( asbestostubing) brought his note pad along to our gym meet with the intention of showing a video he had on it. Ian of projump 101 doing stuff ( un we didnt get to see it in the end, doh). It suddenly occured to him that we could use the webcam. This was then set up on a chair facing a spot where we had obsticals set up for peeps to do jumps and tricks over.
It occures that doing this has 1 or 2 advtages over a str8 digital vidcam, in a gym setting.
There is a good sized screen for , well, up to 6 peeps to review footage at 1 time, as a training aid or to have a good laff at a bail
If by good fortune there is wifi in the gym, 1 may hook up here to compare gym performance to the experts tutorials. Failing that i guess1 could preload said clips.
If , like the JJ's, after a gym session you go for a drink or a barbi, there is now a nice bit of fresh entertainment to watch.
If you already have a digicam, well now you have another to camera to use. 1 static, with a fixed view and another to roam about with. That should enhance videos no end.
No bother with getting the cable out to stick footage onto a computer. So editing and posting to YouTube should be even quicker and easier. Indeed , the likes of Clive could even set to work whilst still in the ambulance!
So yep, basically sorry, you may well be about to get loads of JJ videos as well as stills now. We may try using 2 or 3 comps. So we can get front and side views of the same flip attempts as an example .
