This video series might be interesting to some experienced pilots and to newer pilots wondering what sailplane contest flying looks like from inside the cockpit.
This flight was on Day 2, October 12, 2012. It was a single turn MAT task (2:30) from Fairfield to #9 Burnt Cabins which got us onto the ridges.
I used 2 ReplayXD 1080 cameras (small, cylindrical) for this video (
www.replayxd.com). One camera is mounted over might right shoulder and the other on the top of the panel facing aft (also out to the side later in the video).
I used Apple Final Cut Pro (FCP) to a) synch the two cameras individual videos (based on audio) and then FCP multi-cam editing feature to switch the camera angles thus editing the video in to a single, real time replay of the flight featuring the most interesting camera angle at any given moment.
Once I got the hang of this process it was actually pretty easy. I can post more detail on this process if anyone is interested in learning more.
Enjoy!
