Upgrade my Equipment - 5-min Morning Journal #220322

-

I am thankful it was just a dream.  My heart is still beating fast. 

"Upgrade my video equipment"


What did you dream of last night? Does it solve a problem? 

My friend invited me to shoot his sister's wedding for free and that I can use my phone to shoot.  

The day arrived and I only have my Samsung galaxy s10. There wasn't enough memory.  I didn't bring my stabilizer.  I was worried I cannot zoom in. 

I thought I should have brought a better camera, but then again, it's a free favor. 

Then I was told I don't have to shoot the bride's arrival.  Now I am worried about editing a complete story. 

It all feels bad... stressful. 

========

Is the dream telling me to upgrade my gear? 

Time to deal with stress again. 


What am I thankful for right now?

See above.

    • What's stopping me from completing the lensgo review fast? I need a credible story.  I need to use it.  I need a partner to test it outside. 
    • Credible story? See other videos. 
    • Test it? Use it today for streaming. 
    • Partner? Get kiddo to go downstairs.

Ps:

🐞 Is today a WEEKEND (Fri, Sat, Sun)? Don't start anything; clean up what I started. Successful people spend family time, Me-time, clear clutter, and strategize the week.

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.

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.
