Geneva

As if they were flying

As if they were flying - you see a few sequences with the Jet D’eau in the background. They appear weightless. Micha Hurni - Helvetic Tricking 400fps from Swisstricks on Vimeo.

Geneva tweetup at the Bristol

After two years of online interactions I finally met certain Geneva twitter users. The tweetup took place at the Bristol Hotel in Geneva. There was a good group of people and they were what you would exepect from a tweetup. It was organised by bristolgva and here is some of the related twitter conversation linked to the event.

Geneva Lake Parade - McDonald's FIFA theme.

[flickr-gallery mode=“photoset” photoset=“72157624344703307”] Every year I go to the lake parade and this year I tried something different. I decided to take photographs rather than video. By the same opportunity I am testing Flickr gallery, a plugin that makes including your flickr images into wordpress a two step process.

My Love Affair with HD Continues

Today I went to the Geneva Motor Show and filmed lot’s of cars, from the Koenigsegg to Asimo the robot via a few girls giving information about cars and even crowds of people. I spent some time reviewing the footage and yet again I’m happy with the results. I’m going to work on a few compilation videos within the next few days but if you’d like an overview of the result then I have a sample on blip (select the mov), and on Youtube (Select HD).

Two very different types of Qik videos

Today both a friend and I are among the top qikkers of the day. Whilst Documentally of Ourmaninside.com was in Milton Keynes getting an iphone 3g and streaming a number of videos on the experience I was filming dancers at the Geneva lake Parade. Both these events have appeal for different reasons. We’re used to watching videos of Americans getting the iphone and doing a variety of geek events and for once we had the English experience.

Lake Parade streaming fun

Whilst a friend was filming with a high speed camera i was streaming the event live from my phone via Qik. I noticed they improved a couple of important things. The first is that video files are now saved and readable without conversion. The second fact is that you now have an RSS feed, makes aggregation easier. I’ve added two or three of those feeds to itunes so the content can be accessed more easily.
