[Woodcarver] One More Bottle Stopper

[Donna Menke]

Corey-
Some still digital still cameras will take a minute of video that is easy to transfer to the computer. That is how I did some of my earlier harp and carving snippets. When I wanted to get serious I bought a relatively inexpensive <$125 digital camera and was surprised at how well the videos come out. A lot of it has to do with lighting and knowing where to place the camera- and explaining things well. I think that is more important than having the $1,200 prosumer camera.
Editing is the hard part, but I think there are some programs that make it an easier task. (We used Linux-based open source programs which made the job more complex). Mine end up a little less than perfect, but the essential information is transmitted smoothly enough. No complaints. . . so far.
