Success!  Editing and uploading full resolution video from iPhone 3GS

What do you get when you upload video from your iPhone 3GS to youtube or through email? A low-resolution piece of junk online… At one point that wasn’t so bad, however when the ReelDirector app came out, allowing for simple iPhone video editing, I wanted to actually shoot, edit and upload decent...

Saturday was exhausting but worth every moment of driving between Portland and Eugene – twice. The SPJ Oregon conference was fun to speak at and I hope those who went came away pleased. SPJ is lucky to have Tamara Kent and the good folks at the U of O getting this put together. I plan...

Just got a hold of a new iPhone app that provides basic video editing options. I used some clips I shot of the boys shortly after getting the 3gs and discovered I could not splice clips together; until now. Thank you ReelDirector. This clip is just over one minute long and took the iPhone four...

Yakima Burns! — Old Boise Cascade fire video thoughts…

Yakima Burns! — Old Boise Cascade fire video thoughts…

So the power went out today at yakimaherald.com when the old Boise Cascade mill went up in smoke. Whenever you drive through Yakima on Interstate 82, you notice what looks to be a large lumber mill, when actually it’s over-glorified lumber storage that has been warned about the danger of keeping so many...

First post from my iPhone

I just got my phone back from Africa and downladed the Wordpress app to see how well it works for mobile posting. So far it seems pretty easy, with easy to navigate menues and a horizontal keyboard (thankfully…) I wonder if I can post one of my first iPhone photos (that I use as...

More than two miles up?!?!

Today we went on a short trip from Ft. Collins to Estes Park then into the Rocky Mountain National Park.  We went up what’s known around Colorado as the ‘Highest Road in America‘ then made the relatively short climb to the top of a peak above the road.  As soon as we started our...

Not over even after the video stops rolling

March 14, 2009

Two days of shooting four games a day on tape is insane.  It’s one thing to shoot a game for TV where 2-4 shots are used per game.  Trying to create nat sound video highlight mini-stories is tough when you shoot that many games over such a small time frame. By the end of the...
