Storm Chase Dvd?

Iancar29

Hey Poeple !, finally getting around to start go through all my videos and pics .

Seeing as there all in HD and even tough ill be cutting them down there is still a good bit of footage.

Was wondering if i was to burn the final onto dvd ( i can make a trailer ) , would anyone anyone like to buy a copy off me ? Price probably only 5euro depending one how much footage i get to put on it. All moneys will obviously go into my savings account for next year!

So ye , if you's think its a good idea please Reply with thumbs up. Dont really want to put hours of editing into something not worth it in the end.

Sorry if its off topic . Mods feel free to change/ rid of @ ur wish .

... Now , back to editing!

ye bleedin better for a fiver HAH! LOL

I'd happily give you a fiver (or maybe even a tenner :eek:) towards your next trip, but I think you'd be better off having the footage available online for free and set up some kind of fundraising page with links to it so people can donate what they wish, through paypal maybe or on a site along the lines of mycharity.ie. I think you'd do a lot better this way. I don;t think people would like giving out thier home address to receive the DVD either.

I'll look into doing that so !

Count me in. Half thinking about doing a tornado tour next year if i can get away.

weisses

I pay a tenner for a signed copy :D:p

Iancar29

Thanks guys!, i really didnt think about this until my brother asked me how i was gonna put up nearly 2 hours of footage onto youtube! haha...

Ah signed copy for a tenner!?... deal! haha

So ye, ill try have a trailer done by friday and give more details about it.

talkabout... u planning on doing it with net weather or another group?..
Tour 4 next year ill be goin on ... 3 and 4 at this rate! hahaha

talkabout

Was looking at netweather but I don't think i can afford it next year as i have at least one wedding abroad. I take it you would recommend netweather. Lived n the states for over three years so I would make it part of a bigger holiday

AH cool i see, ye its a lot of money , so if ya can travel around america in ur own way its obviously much cheaper to do it that way.

Ya really should think then about gettin a Boran or GRLevel 3... there the programmes we wer using. ANd ultimately what kept us all safe out there.

Seeing as i finished looking through the videos from my iphone yesterday i decided to make yas a trailer out of that ! ( no tornadoes on my iphone shots just to let ya know . )

Shall upload in the next few hours

After your trip would you recommend going over and just hiring a car and going storm chasing with mobile broadband for live info?:D

Won't have the money for a good few years but when I do, any weather nuts are welcome to come along on the 'run on a shoe string' storm chase:pac:

Ye basically, thats what alot of lone chasers do... A good car, a labtop, mobile 3/4G internet and then with Boron or GRLevel 3... And your away!

ID certainly would do it if i could drive and that.


Uploading trailer now... will take awhile though.

Thanks Weisses... Im using iMovie on my New Mac Book Pro which i bought over there, its real handy!


ITs gonna be hard to try decipher what footage will be classed as "Not Interesting" enough for you's ... lightning for example... do yous wanna see the whole shabang or just the best bits?...

Or do you's think the longer the film the better???....

Personally i would say a more diary approach when making this would be nice ..... (take the viewer with you on the trip)

But hey that's just my thought

FCP is Final Cut Pro by Apple.

With the trailer you just put together I think you've got a knack for AV editing and with your subject matter I reckon you could get a bit of interest on the AV section of Boards. But then again for all I know you may be well qualified in the area to begin with.

Now I want a new MacBook Pro too

PM sent.

Thanks man!

Looking into Buying a GoPro... Would be prefect for mounting inside the cars!

Tactical

Was thinking that might be a good idea for you, but beware I'm seeing a lot of reports of issues when ingesting the captured footage into most NLE programs.

Definately investigate these issues first. I've looked at the GoPro HD cameras and very much like the modular concept with replaceable parts. Pretty expensive to buy in Dublin though and I haven't noticed the component parts on sale here but then again I didn't ask either. I do know that the GoPro units are used professionally. One recording continuously would be a fantastic luxury to have on one of your trips and you could happily put it outdoors for any "bad":rolleyes: weather we get here in Ireland (roll on the next big wind event)

Alternatively, consider a dSLR wit HD record capabilities. Some are excellent quality although I'd recommend a counter-weight system (easily home constructed and very effective) to aleviate jerky footage that is a characteristic of light body recording devices.

The windscreen mounts on the DVD were the business. Must locate a supplier as I can actually think of more than one application for such decent looking units.
