How to Revititalize Video for DSLR
Dec 28, 2014 12:01:18 #
I initiated this sub-forum and then did little to promote or participate.
Let's not let it die.
I am interested in hearing your ideas for promoting it and getting more UHH forum members to contribute.
One idea I have, is to have a monthly contest. That could be posted along with the still photography contest that runs more frequently. I would also post as a general topic heading in the photography section.
Suggested starting date would be January. I'll develop more "rules" after I hear feedback, which I certainly hope is forthcoming.
Suggested topic for the first "contest" or topic challenge, might be Rain and or Snow.
Ideas? Any future topics any of you would like to suggest?
I hope to hear from you and get this revitalized, if possible.
Thanks!

I tried to start a couple of topics a few weeks ago. There was no interest.
My current guess, based on a poll about what members shoot, is that UHH is full of Nikon and Canon DSLR owners that really don't have ANY interest in video.

Just discovered it tonight :)
I've just got decent video making capability, I don't know what I intend to do with it yet.

Blackest,
If you have a hobby try to make a short video on it and put it on youtube. You will get the experience of using your equipment and editing sound and picture. A three or four minute video should take about 8 hours to do. Best way to learn is just to do.

Thats part of the problem, finding the time to go out and do it. I need to think of a story to tell first.

I think Scoutman envisioned making videos as something like making movies, eg a fictional artistic presentation. I have one fictional video I made on my youtube channel called "Bob's Inteview With An Alien". I went through the process of writing a script, creating a sound track, etc. It was fun, but only got 50 views. A shorter video I created in a couple of hours about tethering the Nikon D3100 to a monitor got over 5,000 views. Not that one is better than the other, just an observation. I think the question is if we make videos, why do we do it? Over and above having the experience of creating a video, is there something we can contribute to the viewer? Just some random musings...
