I see some of these guys make some neat videos, so I was thinking one of us with a nice camera should bring it so we can make some of our own. I'm thinking if one of you has video editing software/hardware we could actually do some nice, short videos and/or films and put the SW group on the map in the eyes of the CEG. We have a nice, diverse group w/ lots'a guts for trying new things (DARKERIMAGE's 19s {first on a 'tour, I believe}; Kaiser's APex'I; warmonger's 3L, etc.).
I thinking those of us willing to volunteer for this should list the kind of camera you have and whether or not you currently possess the ability to edit video. Here's mine...
Sharp Hi-8mm HandCam-thing...
Records in stereo...has standard RCA jacks and S/Video to interface w/ PC or VHS unit. I also have a decent 6 head Hitachi VCR for dubbing to tape.
I do not possess the software or talent to edit video w/ any degree of success. I do have a CD-burner, though, if no one else does. It would be nice to make VHS and digital copies for anyone in the group that wants them.
I think a digicam (like a Mavica) would be best, but I don't know if anyone in the group has an actual digital camcorder.
Whaddya think?
