mike1779 0 #2 May 7, 2007 Yeah, I know the drogue in the burble by my head was a little scarey.*** This is a very good example of a tandem instructor that should NOT be doing handcam. The burble has nothing to do with it. You were paying more attention to the camera than the drogue throw. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steveorino 7 #3 May 7, 2007 Hey, I guess I should feel honored that your first post is to rag on me. If you really looked at the video and you can tell I'm not looking at the handcam after exit or during drogue pitch. steveOrino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peej 0 #4 May 7, 2007 It's really cool Steve! For me however it will never look as cool as outside video. I think it would be great to integrate the two together though! So you have the outside view of the freefall till opening and then add the handcam from opening so the passenger gets to see themself under canopy, that would rock. good job though!

steveorino 7 #5 May 7, 2007 I agree. Outside video is better overall by far. Especially when done by a good vidiot with still capabilities. This guy didn't want outside video, so I took it along. After he saw the footage -- he wanted it. BTW, we do put the two together for our VIP tandems.http://www.skydiveairtight.com/vip_tandem.html steveOrino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peej 0 #10 May 8, 2007 Wicked man, i feel really sorry for people who come through and don't want video (we don't get many) but i always have stills and a video lying nearby to show them and when i do most change their minds Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

speedy 0 #17 May 10, 2007 No offense, but when I compare that video with the outside video I did last sunday, there is no comparison. We watched the video at work with a lot of whuffos ( generally they are the people we try to impress with Tandem videos). They loved the view of the passanger leaving the aircraft. They like the view of the ground with the tandem "plummeting" downwards. They also liked the close shots I did, like what you have on the handcam. They commented on how the chute looked during deployment. There again, maybe I am just a vidiot trying to save my job Dave Fallschirmsport Marl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tqsmile 0 #18 May 10, 2007 No offence taken.I will never say which is better between the two forms of video.I being a TI and vidiot, I can not.My opinion is that both have there place and have to be looked as as such. I have only had happy customers with both,okay one or two on both sides have been flops,but hey that happens TQ I am me and you are you, so deal with it!!! www.skydivepe.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did the handle checks afer I tossed the drogue. I simply edit that out. You can see the transition where i edited the tape easily enough. As far as the tongue ... well ... I honestly don't remember doing it as much as I do. It isn't always intentional.... just a quirk I have. steveOrino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steveorino 7 #20 May 10, 2007 Nice one! It clearly demonstrates why some students after seeing good examples of both handcam and outside video why some prefer handcam. The initial response upon canopy deployment makes it very cool (IMHO) Plus, I think you get a sense of speed with hand cam you don't get with outside. As a vidiot and TM I prefer outside video, but I can see why some prefer handcam. Good job! steveOrino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kimblair13 0 #21 May 10, 2007 I think this shows the wonderful canopy footage you can get. There's no way an outside vid could ever get these shots. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
