Mark and others, I'd be happy to video the workshop, and other events at the gathering. That is if I attend. It's on my calendar now, but I'll also be doing the Hood River Fly-In the next weekend, also in Oregon. My Social Director may have other plans for me when we get closer to these dates.
I haven't decided whether to drive or fly from AWO. It's a short flight, but I usually use 2 to 4 cameras and lots of tripods, lights, and other "stuff." By myself it will all fit in my C172, but if another person comes along...... And I like to share these events with others. Plus there's camping gear if I don't hotel it. If I'm doing an "official" video I'll use multiple cameras, but if just a spectator or participant, I'll use just one. Something like your workshop it would be good to use more than one camera so there's close-ups of the hands-on stuff. Posted before, so some of you have seen this. Here's one example of using just one camera - at last year's Hood River Fly-In: https://vimeo.com/107101162 Here's a short example of using multiple cameras at a high school concert; Emma has a great voice: http://youtu.be/5P6WQZiHLC This is more like the setup I would use for a workshop. The only issue is editing takes 40 to 100 hrs for any major event (2 to 5 hrs per minute of finished video). As I'm still working and being the guy around the house, with a teen foster kid in high school, that can take a while to publish. And I don't mean to hog in here. If there's anyone else who'd rather video, I'm super happy to just watch the show and learn. Jim McGauhey Washington State
