Ok John, I'll do my very best to get there for 8. As an aside, being a keen stereoscopic videographer(!), I recently acquired a new, lightweight 3d camera rig and tested it out the last time I was in Holland. Result here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gM-myb2Cteo Do you think it would be possible to take a few shots of the preparations? I'm sure it would be an impressive sight, dimensionally speaking...

Best wishes,

Tiv

That is very, very effective Paul. I'll be interested to see the attachment so by all means bring it along and have a go. You may get some interesting 3D shots with that enormous screen frame going up.

By the way chaps (and chapettes) I've just put the programme up on the bfcc site. There may be some changes to it yet but as it currently stands that programme is what is planned. Another busy day!

Paul,

That clip is terrific! There are many 3-D fans on the Forum, so would you mind (in the General Yak section) posting more about the camera setup that you're using? Thanks!

Doug

Hope to see you all at Ealing on Saturday.
I'm not certain if I will still be there at lunchtime, but, maybe I'll meet up with some of you before then.

Well, we're just about to set off so we're in the vicinity of the capital in plenty of time for tomorrow. See each and everyone of you on this forum tomorrow then!!!

Paul, Mark and Robert, see you around 8am all being well for all our journeys in from the four corners of the nation. And the rest of you, projection area meet for cider and natter around 1pm. Wilts and I will have to set up the video projection equipment but hopefully we'll get sorted in good time.

Going by car, Kevin. Have to take a detour to East Acton to the mother -in - laws on the way.

I shall be going by train unless the weather is good then I'm going on the Kwaka.

Just thought that if you were going by train we could meet up and talk shop on the way [Eek!]

Paul- wonderful clip!

How did you shoot the point-of-view bike ride in the first part of the film? I have tried this. And the results have been pretty bad.

Hi chaps,

Has anyone produced a report on the May BFCC yet?

I thought there might be something towards the end of this thread, but I haven't found anything.

Perhaps it's under some other obscure heading, but I can't see it.

Anyway, I hope and trust that an excellent time was had by all, and once again, I tender my apologies for absence on this auspicious (or suspicious!) occasion.

Best to all, as always,

Valves and celluloid - a great combination!
Early technology rules OK!

David,
There are two threads with the BFFC as a topic.
Scroll down a little way in the 8mm forum and you will find
BFCC report.
regards,
Mal
