One of the typical loops thru five different counties here in south-eastern Arizona. (Pima, Cochise, Graham, Gila, and Pinal)
375 miles...Google says seven hours, I did it in 6.5 hours. Not bad, a successful trip.

So, I'm really trying to get better with this video shooting stuff. I do recognize that to get a better video, I'm going to need to improve the methods I'm presently shooting with. Challenging...
A couple of months ago, I made another pass thru here. The video from that is above. This time I shot actual video, rather than the still images that would be turned into a video.
I nearly completely muted the audio track on this video - camera limitation that I just can't fix. In addition, I've actually sped up the video, and you'll need to use the speed controls built into the YouTube player of your choice to slow it to a more accurate speed, if you choose to do so.
Yes, I did this on purpose. No I won't tell you why.
I do have more video to share...soon.
I watched most of your Pima ride video. Thanks for sharing. What settings did you use with your GoPro? Looks like time-lapse to me. Have you tried editing your videos into short stories using iMovie or the Windows equivalent?
ReplyDeleteHey, thanks for taking the time to respond. Hopefully, this'll answer your questions on the video (I know, jumpy toward the end, since the road was quite twisty...)
DeleteI'm not an iAnything person. With that stated, there's nothing truly 'equivalent' in the Win10 world - for free. Windows Movie Maker (from back in the Win7 days...) is what I've been using for all of the video I have generated as time-lapse from images taken with my GoPro. I've looked at Filmora, DaVinci, Shotcut... I mean, the challenge is the 2800 images, then making them into a video (of any sort...) in which to share it.
The recording settings on the GoPro was one frame every 10 seconds. When generating the movie, I'm slowing down the speed by 0.7x. I'm just not a fan of YT videos longer than 7 or 8 minutes in duration. This was a day ride, it shoudn't take all day to watch it, either.
There are SO many places to die, yet those bugs had to choose the lens of your GoPro to end it all. :-)
ReplyDeleteI was amazed that at my first gas stop, I had nothing on the lens. From there, thought it would be smooth sailing. Fortunate that it landed off axis, ever so slightly.
