As we chatted about a few weeks ago, I am about to start my
conditional inspection on the "beast". I think you idea of making a
short but sweet video of what I encountered during my auto engine
conversion is a good thought. I imagine taking an overall shot of the
plane, zoom in on various systems, all the while *verbally describing
what I did, what I didn't do, what worked, what didn't work kind of
format. I am open to suggestions on how to put together a tell all
video for other alternative engine junkies.... Fire away .


Might be better to add the audio later rather than trying to narrate
on the fly.


I thought about that too. As soon as the NASCAR race is over I am
headed to the hangar to give this a try. Thanks for the feedback.


Which is not to say that you shouldn't record your rough voiceover while
you video the plane; it's useful, just not for the final product. And
shoot individual segments longer than what you think you might possibly
need; it's a lot easier to clip excess than trying to stretch and hold
it.

Sketch out a rough storyboard of what you need to show, with some rough
voiceover before you start shooting. And have fun.

(I spent the better part of five years doing multimedia video/3D
animated service documentation for a major server company...I think we
made most of the mistakes possible for that sort of thing, but
eventually worked it out.)
