Title: Calling all budding wildlife filmmakers! Post by: Cookham Webmaster on April 17, 2020, 11:36:07 AM WildCookham has teamed up with Wild Maidenhead to present LookWild! - a fun wildlife filmmaking competition to encourage local families and people of all ages to make films about the wildlife around our homes and gardens. It's ideal at this time: the competition is designed for films shot in your own garden or close to where you live - and it can be no more than two minutes long. Easy! The competition runs from right now up until Saturday the 16th May. Visit WildCookham or Wild Maidenhead on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/wildcookham/?ref=bookmarks
And don't forget the great things you can do to Bring your Garden to Life. Join in the Wild About Gardens Awards - all details (plus the Weekly WAGA with wild garden tips and ideas) on the WildCookham website. https://www.wildcookham.org.uk/wild-about-gardens Title: Re: Calling all budding wildlife filmmakers!

Happy to say that we now have 10 entrants to the competition, and we've rolled the registration deadline back to the 9th May, so if you know anyone else who'd like to be involved please send them this way. I've finally had the chance to finish off the first of our instructional videos, basically some ideas to get some interesting and varied shots: https://youtu.be/LLl4qPgTSn0 I'll follow up soon with some other ideas on different camera techniques like hi speed and timelapse. Charlotte from WildCookham has also produced a great reference to filmmaking from an editor's perspective: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uJbCS858X2keY2XZMBEsVUjHqqupZXyT-UeZEbO0rpY/edit?usp=sharing I'm in the process of pulling some great youtube vids together - but this is very good to show scene setting and editing : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMnviG0jzik Please feel free to reach out with any queries!

Here is another nature shot taken with my Sony AX35 camera, and edited with a Filmora 9 programme. https://youtu.be/12wWT9XmvTw Regards, James Hatch Title: Re: Calling all budding wildlife filmmakers! Post by: James Hatch on May 08, 2020, 06:11:26 PM Hi Rob,
This is not exactly Wild life, but is to demonstrate the built in stability of the GoPro 7 camera when head mounted and filmed from a Yamaha Scooter on the island of Rarotonga, the capital island of The Cook Islands in the South Pacific. The video does not a voice over, but is backed up by some Island music by the local artist Bobby Browne. https://youtu.be/L6ZLIurDAGM |
