2009 Civil War: Oregon vs. Oregon State
“They love their Ducks”
“They really love their Ducks”
Notes to self:
- I will never, EVER, use the XHA1 “auto gain” ever ever EVER again.
- Trust my first instincts for camera and exposure settings.
- Film more football games… Um, practice makes perfect. (This was my first time filming college football event, and a night one at that!)
- Bring 6 pin to 4 pin firewire cable.
- Arrive earlier… Traffic was a bitch.
- Buy zoom lens. 10 more X would have been nice.
- Use a video camera that records to memory cards instead of tape.
- Force myself to use manual focus ALL OF THE TIME (but have my thumb on the “push auto focus” button, just in case.)
- Figure out a way to get better audio… The AKG Perception 170 would have been nice to have.
- Bring a Steady Stick. The mono-pod just got in the way.
