Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.

Nice, but imo you switch too fast. Touchdown and the resulting smoke are the most interesting part to watch. Now there's just nog enough time to see what's going on.

The edit is quite interesting, but next time you go filming I would suggest two things: keep the level (waterpas) horizontal and make sure there are no obstacles blocking your view, like the lampposts etc.

@Rene Ok, thanks for the tips. In my opinion it's pretty boring to see a movie from, let's say 2 minutes with only 1 plane landing in front of the camera. But I agree, the moment of landing and off course the smoke are pretty interesting.

@richard I know you're right about the level and obstacles. Nothing to say about that ;)

Edit: excuus heren moderators, for not doing this in English, it slipped my mind :oops:

Kevin,

Best leuk gedaan zo. Het feit dat niet alles geleveld is, kan dat te maken hebben met het feit dat je het draait vanaf statief zonder balhoofd? Wanneer je een "fixed mounting" hebt, gaat bij het pannen inderdaad je horizon verschuiven.

De overgangen zijn iets te snel/rommelig inderdaad, probeer daar iets meer rust in te krijgen. Wellicht is het een idee eens te filmen uit de hand? klinkt tegenstrijdig, maar als je een beetje een vaste hand hebt, kun je betere resultaten behalen als vanaf statief. Vaak beperkt zo'n statief je namelijk in je bewegings ruimte.

Vind je muziek er goed bij trouwens!

Groet

Menno

I miss the added value of having 3 cameras if they are all located at the same spot. It's like there were 3 of you filming side by side and you pasted the material together. It would be cool if the 3 cams are a few hundred meters apart. Right now it's just very messy, clicking (no fader?) from zoomed-in to wide angle and back to zoomed-in again.
