Bangkok Airport to Pattaya Drive Time

Adrian Video Image has posted a new item, 'Bangkok Airport to Pattaya Drive Time'

I’ve been to Bangkok Thailand 15 years ago… Also on a business trip during my Panasonic days.

The flight from Singapore Changi Airport to Bangkok Airport took about 2 hours… Guess what? I’ve got my favorite seat at the window without choosing (had to pay Jetstar extra to choose a seat otherwise the airline assigns at random).

My first view of thailand from the sky? Neat patterns of rectangles and squares with different shades of green… Farms I guess.

As the plane descended, I could see typical Thai roof architectures.

Arrived at Bangkok airport 12.30 pm local time.

This tall shelter structure outside with cement pillars was my first impression of Bangkok airport… Quite different from what I see on the web. (The actual name of the airport is Bangkok International Suvarnabhumi Airport)

Exit gate 3 is the common meeting point. People gather in front of CCTV screens to watch their friends arrive inside the immigration area.

Many people were holding up papers with names written largely. I am supposed to find mine.

After 20 minutes, I could not find anyone holding up my name, so I called the Thai organizer who then informed me to wait another hour for an Indonesian flight to arrive.

So I was at Gate 3 for 2 hours, afraid to go anywhere else in case I miss the pick up van.

The Indonesians (participants of the same conference I will be shooting) arrived and we left in a van specially arranged to drive us to Pattaya.

The drive time from Bangkok Airport to Pattaya was around one hour on the highway. (Never got to see Bangkok city)

PS:
In the plane, before I switched my iPhone to flight mode, I quickly installed a free app to learn how to “Speak Thai” onboard the 2-hour flight.

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee @Adrian Video Image The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

Sony Vegas Pro 8 Tutorial - Multicamera Editing

Sony Vegas Pro 8 makes it easier to edit videos from different cameras right from the timeline. You can capture and edit video for a single scene from 2 or more cameras or for a single scene shot a few times with one camera. Here is a tutorial of a Multicamera Edit of a drama I shot. The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer. For each of the 4 acts, the camcorder (Sony HDR-FX7 High Definition Camcorder) was placed at 4 different positions and shot in various angles. Multicamera edit is accomplished in only 8 steps with the Sony Vegas Pro 8. Step #1: Capture Multicamera Video Clips Use the normal Sony Vegas Video Capture function to capture recordings from each camera. Give each capture filename a unique name. Enable scene detection before capturing so that each segment is captured as a separate clip. Step #2 : Layout Video Clips on Timeline Drag and drop video clips over each other on the...

FCPX - The storage device "Macintosh HD" is almost full

The message "The storage device Macintosh HD is almost full" appeared when I was editing a video with Final Cut Pro X on my new Apple Macbook Air M1. Final Cut Pro Taking up Too Much Space My Macbook Air M1 had only 256GB of storage onboard. My raw footage was only about 9GB. The biggest file was the FCPX project files itself at about 140GB! How did 9GB become 140GB? There is not enough disk space for my Final Cut Pro. Why Is Final Cut Pro Taking up So Much Storage Final Cut Pro renders files in high-quality media so that we can playback our edits smoothly direct from the timeline. It creates multiple HUGE high-quality files of our footage in the background. It is a good thing, so as to maintain high-quality final edited video, BUT not a good thing for a laptop with only 256GB. How to Clear Disk Space on Final Cut Pro The question is how to delete the rendered files in FCPX? 1. Select the library in FCPX... 2. Go to Files > Delete Generated L...
