Well not yet ;D Today I processed about 7 hours worth of footage, but I am still waiting on the video from one member (*cough* jk *cough*) then I'll be able to finish it.
In the meantime here is a short teaser trailer that will hopefully keep interest levels up 8)

Sounds like a good idea, maybe youtube would be good to or megavideo.
-
I've been ordering a copy for weeks now! Let us know when the final doco has been approved by those who did the trip and we will all line up to download a copy ... get behind me everyone! >:D
It'll be a ripper view ... I'm sure of it.

-
We cant wait to see what we missed out on this year. Lucky we didn't go, otherwise Jodie may have had the baby prematurely. You all sound like you had a blast!
-
I've seen a few of the videos on youtube and they are a blast. Can't wait to see the full video.
Mal

Another update - this time here is a short video showing a few of us breaking off from the main group to do the CREB track.
Only the low res version is available at the moment (130Mb), I am still uploading the high res one (640Mb). I did try a lower quality version but it was way too chunky for my liking. I can't upload to youtube because it is too long - sorry.
Low res version (http://symon.id.au/symon/Cape 2011/CREBlowres.mp4)
Hi res version (http://symon.id.au/symon/Cape 2011/CREB.wmv)
-
OK, both versions are up and ready for download.
-
Downloading now :D
-
Downloading now :D
X 2 but I have been slowed down :'(
-
Good job Symon :cup: , you've done excellent work. Can't wait to see to OTL Video, I know there's a mountain of footage to work through but it'll be worth the wait.
Thanks for the present ;D , and I'm glad some of our footage was useable...................a lot of it wasn't due to a camera light setting being wrong.
Cheers
Johnno
-
I've been able to fiddle with the brightness and saturation to make some of your footage easier on the eyes. Unfortunately the stuff from Canal creek was a bit too far gone, so I only used snippets of it, but the overall effect was pretty good in the end. I think you'll like it.
On another note, how is everyone finding the download speeds?
-
Didn't take notice of d/l speed.
Got the low res version, & came in quite quick :)
Also like to say well done on the filming...taking into account that bush tracks aren't smooth.
Nothing worse than trying to watch someone's 'home' video(s) & they're panning @ a millions mph, jerking the camera all over the place, & trying to fit everything in in the shortest amount of time.
Didn't feel sea-sick at all watching this :) :cup:
-
I can take zero credit for the quality of the filming - that was all done by Tim, Mick, Kirsty and John. So well done all.
-
Thanks for posting the link Symon, the low res DL speed for me took about 25 min but I've got sh!t broad band speed at the best of time's. To all the people that have contributed to the video footage and the editing , I'd like to say thank you for your time and sharing.
Looking forward to the full video, even if i have to get a copy from someone 8)
Dean.
-
I just downloaded the low res, but my computer doesnt have the right program to play it, Does anyone have a link for it?
-
Hey BD
Try real player
-
The low res is in mp4 format, most players should be able to handle it. If you can't try updating your codecs, or use VLC - http://www.videolan.org/vlc/.
-
awesome vid going to send a copy to my brother "eldo" we're going next year ;D :cheers:
troy
-
Thanks lads, awesome stuff :cup:
-
So you got it to play BD?
-
Yep Perfect thanks Symon. That vlc link did the trick perfectly :cup:
Thanks Again.
cheers John
-
Top Stuff by everyone involved :cheers:
-
OK, I trimmed down the original video so that youtube will accept it. So now you can see the good bits without some of the footage and not have player issues.
http://youtu.be/6hdgtm-CeU8
Enjoy!
Edit - just looked at it, quality is crap, but it is a smaller download for those with slow connections.
-
Nice work mate :D

Patience grasshopper, patience.

I only just noticed that Scott has uploaded some more footage of the trip from his camera onto youtube!

I did not smell berts clutch burning!!! ;D that was my twin driving !!!
Mark
-
Keep em coming I'm enjoy everyone of them just make me want to go more an more. Next year bring it on.
-
Unfortunately some dick (me) turned the camera auto light switch off without realising, so most of my vdo is overexposed. Especially all the water fall footage. :'( I'm over it now, but I had a few choice words to say to myself when I first noticed. The only decent stuff I have is on overcast days or in shady areas. I have good footage of JK at gunshot, but can't post it on the Aussie Swag site for obvious reasons. I can put some of the raw footage on brushe.id.au when I get back to Brisbane.
Scoot
-
Scoot, the logon details I gave you gives you upload access as well as download, so please feel free to upload your footage. I don't have a lot of Gunshot footage, so the more the merrier.
If you are happy to, please upload your overexposed footage as well, I might be able to fiddle with it a bit in the video editor and make it viewable.
DVD is about 50% complete... I've processed jk's, Mykio's and my footage, just adding in Theo's and then prettying it all up.
-
Symon,
did you email us the login details?
cheers
Geoff

I'm trying to make it family friendly, you won't believe how many times I've had to *beep* out things....
-
No chance of it being too pretty with all of our ugly heads in it ;D
-
Gee I hope it doesnt show Bert getting cranky with me burning his clutch...DOH
Mark
-
Well you finally admitted it. Now I'll send you half the bill.
Bert

I've uploaded footage of jk, motoki & bert at gunshot.

Cheers mate, downloading now.
Edit - just had a look. Excellent stuff, thanks Scott. What camera were you using? The quality is brilliant, nicely cut together too.
Love jk's crossing, every time I hear that V8 I get an uncomfortable sensation in my pants!
-
panasonic HDC-HS700. JK's vehicle does have a throaty growl.
Scoot
PS I'm uploading some unedited footage as well
-
Ill be keen on a copy please
pm me the details when ready

Here's a long bit of footage from the Myswag trip I found on U-tube. (Warning:- It's about 23 minutes long)
Not sure if it's been posted up before.

So how are we going with the DVD now Symon (no pressure mind). Haven't been able to use the link to your server for awhile, so just wondering how it will work, when you are finished editing out all the beeps. ;D
Kit_e
-
OK, I am in the process of uploading the first 24mins of the DVD to the server (should be done by about 8pm EST). Can those on the trip please have a look, and let me know if there is anything you want me to take out. This first bit contains all the introductions etc, so if anyone isn't comfortable with what is in there please let me know before I release it to the masses.
Also this video is only half DVD quality, the full version looks much better.
-
As long you don't have footage of me and bert in bed !!! ;D
Mark
-
Any luck with the DVD Symon?
-
The first bit is only released to members who went on the trip. I don't want to send it out to the masses yet in case I have something on there that someone will object to.
-
Video is look the goods ...... except for that bit were the 80 series got bogged 50k's out of Cooktown ........ I don't remember that bit at all ;D
I am no video editing expert but you could always through a few of the good snap shots with music overs in to cover off on any of the bit's that didn't make it onto peoples video. IE the self recovery of the 80 series 8) The bar at Endeavour Falls or the stop off at the Lions Den or even the great food / people at each of the Stations and stop offs ......... just a thought mate either way you guy's are doing / have done a top job.

I cant wait until I get home to have a look, I cant view it at work, bloody IT bloke has a block on everything.

The wait is killing me ;D

Looks good so far. Really comprehensive.

x2 ;D
-
Yes I know... sorry for the wait guys, but bear in mind this thing is taking about 4 hours each time I do a compile, then about an hour for me to watch it, find all the errors, then do a recompile..... you can see how this is taking up a lot of time!
-
Mate I need you to come buy and give me some tips :D Keep up the hard / good work 8)
yogi
-
Bet you're sorry you volunteered for that job Symon. The hours just slip away when doing that video editing stuff. A lot of people don't reallise the time involved with getting it right.
Good luck.
You might have it done in time for release in conjunction with Marks magazine article.
-
Any news Symon :-* ;D
-
it is compiling as I write this....
I'M EXCITED!

I know the DVD will be great and again thank you Symon for the work involved in getting it ready but the experience and fun we had on this years trip, as they say, you would have to have been there.
Next years trip will have some surprises, stay tuned.
Mark
-
Surprises ??? , please tell me it's not going to be fancy dress. I know just how hard it is to edit a DVD of this size, it took me a month of sundays to do the 09 trip DVD, and I fully expect Symon's to be far better than my effort. You keep up the good work Symon we'll wait patiently for the finished produce, it'll be worth it :cup: .
-
Yeah sorry for the delay guys, my day job has been getting in the way. Also the net connection out here on camp is pretty ordinary so I can't do big uploads.
Will get it all sorted out when I'm home on the weekend.
-
Poor Troy, he must be dead by now :angel:
almost ;D
-
Been a month since the last post.
Any news on how the DVD is going?
