A wee video of Atticus, Brian and myself at Carnoustie

[madandra]

I had the pleasureof being invited to Carnoustie on Monday to play the Championship course by Alan and his friend Brian. The course is wonderful and I was swept away with all the history of Hogans Alley and Nicklaus' bunker. I played absolutely SHocking but had the time of my life. I have added a video of some of the day and there are some interesting camera angles as I dabbled with the tripod. It does drag on a bit so be warned.

How off putting must that camera have been! I love the experimentation though, as you say some great angles. If you ever play golf with me don't try anything like that though as I will no doubt home in on the lens with my finest titliest.

As for the golf itself I am so envious of anyone who has played the Championship course at Carnousite. I would love to someday grace its fairways. I'm glad you all had a good day out.

theeaglehunter, thats exactually what i was thinking. put a camera infront of me like that and no doubt it will get broke lol

 

[Atticus_Finch]

Good job Andy. Great video. The footage came out really well. I'm glad you enjoyed your visit.
I had a great day and thoroughly enjoyed myself as I knew I would.

Top marks to the artistic director even if your golf suffered! Nice shot of drives down the 18th.

Was that 3 off the tee literally at the begining there? Lucky blighters all enjoying Carnoustie.

 

[DCB]

Looked like a good day for it.

 

[bobmac]

Did you all buy your trousers from the same shop?

 

[John_Findlay]

Jings. How brave were you with your camera? Disposable one was it?

Glad you guys had a good day. Nice to see it wasn't blistering hot...that would have made me just TOO jealous.

What software do you use to get all your clips together?

We've got a work get together next week wouldn't mind trying putting something together.

 

[madandra]

I used Windows movie maker ... it was on the laptop when I bought it. I just dragged the clip into the slide show at the bottom and added titles and music to stop it being TOO dull.

Good effort Mad, I am thinking of getting one of those cool tripods (gorilla pods???) That you can wrap around anything to hold the cam in place. Get some footage by having it strapped to a trolley on the way round.

Love those daring camera angles!

:THUMBSUP:

 

[mattdeeks]

Cheers for pointing me in the right direction.

 

[madandra]

It is a small Gorilla tripod I have and I got it from Asda for £3.50. When you think about it the ball is usually 2 feet off the ground with the driver so placing the camera 12 feet away there is little chance of hitting it.

 

[TonyN]

Yeah, but you havn't seen me thin a driver

Yeah I seen one in Tesco for about the same price, I think I will get it next time I go as I am keen to record lots of golf to watch back in years to come.

I have had a little go of windows movie maker and it seems simple enough but has the ability to create reall good films if you are prepared to put the time in.
