  6. I've got a Samsung that was like $300. don't know the model name and
    don't really care.

    I haven't been able to do much filming/riding in a long time... I
    usually just film myself with a tripod.

    Adobe Premiere Elements is a great program.

  7. -Panasonic PVGS320
    -I don't feel like checking the name of the tripod I have, as it really
    doesn't matter
    -iMovie 4
    24278

    I am defently getting a newer version of iMovie soon, and eventually a
    new computer so I can get a more professional program. I also have
    been thinking about the Kenko Fisheye.

    I would love it if somebody would put together a big colaberation video
    where a bunch of people from the forums would send footage and a very
    nice person would edit it all into about a 45 min. video.

  11. Does anybody here use or know anything about Final Cut Express 4? I was
    just looking at it and I realized that my computer could support it.

    I might get it, I just need to find out if it is any good.

  13. Final Cut express is very adequate even if you are relatively
    experienced editor. I believe it can even support HD editing and
    timecode (not 100% sure about the timecode). I used to use the older
    version of express and was very happy with it. It is simply final cut
    pro with fewer non essential features (especially for unicycle videos)
    and somewhat less rendering capabilities and realtime playback. For
    the money express is a great buy. You can get it for super cheap if
    you buy it preloaded on a new mac 🙂.

    Edit:

    Great idea for a thread! I am a student at Ryerson Film school in
    Toronto streaming to be an non-linear editor. I used to go out and
    shoot and produce whole movies myself, but in the industry one person
    rarely has complete creative control over the whole movie, even small
    budget ones. So if anyone has some footage they would like edited
    (like trials or flatland) but do not have the technical means to edit,
    I would love to try editing unicycling videos.

    I use:

    24 inch Imac 2.8 GHZ intel core duo extreme
    +15 inch dual monitor for viewer
    several external and one internal 500gig HD

  14. I use a Sony Handy cam DCR-HC21. with a Wide anlge conversion lens from
    sony, a cheap tripod from radioshack, and a Mac Mini running iMovie HD,
    and a 500GB external harddrive from LaCie.... I have put my camera
    through Hell.... gotten it soaked in the rain on a coker trip, dropped
    it from about 5 feet up onto concrete, fallen on it, sat on it, and
    recently I dropped it onto some stairs and managed to break the
    eyepeice(viewfinder) off.... kinda sad, camera still works great though
    I'm looking to upgrade soon this camera wont last forever.

    Try Ebay. Sometimes people buy a bunch of copies when they first come
    out and sell them on Ebay. My aunt bought a few copies of photoshop
    like this and it was never used, had all the paperwork and she was able
    to register it and everything....
