Video of a party at my place

(UPDATED: Thanks to my friend H. Don Wilkat for reprocessing the videos into smaller files.)

For those of you with entirely too much bandwidth on your hands, Marcel Gagne has provided me with two video recordings from the most recent open fandom party we held at Carolyn and my place, on Saturday, January 14, 2006. They both play nicely in Windows Media Player.

This one is 22 megabytes, and lasts about a minute and a half. It shows lots of people, and is a walk-through including my office, my living room, my sun room, and my kitchen.

And this one is just 2 megabytes, and shows all the shoes lined up outside my door.

Hey Rob, Don here. Not sure why you posted such large video files . . .

I took the liberty of reprocessing them for you - the first is now 7.3 meg and the second is 2.1 meg.

I put them up on my company site so feel free to download them, verify that they still look great, and use them to resubmit to Marcel for your blog post.

PS; You should post a reply listing the names of everyone in the video . . .

Thanks to Don Wilkat for reprocessing the video files so that they're now much smaller. Enjoy!

Well, you and Marcel do (have the same camera). He took the video with his camera. :)

Hi, Jessica. Oh! Right! Yes, that Sony has been a very nice camera. I only chose Sony because I had a left-over Memory Stick lying around after I'd upgraded the Memory Stick in my Sony Clie Palm-OS organizer, but I've been very pleased with the camera. :)

We are quite happy with it also.

We have been taking many pictures of our daughter, but also use it for long exposures, panoramas and some time lapse video's.

But, we are currently saving up for a Pentax *ist DS2


Cheers,

Jessica Thomas
