Editing Video from SD Video Cameras
@ Features
Sep 14 2008 - 12:51 PST | by Greg : A month or so ago I got a Panasonic SDR-SW20 Video camera that records onto high-density SD. It is a handy small camera that's waterproof (and dustproof!), and fits into a pocket. It records in a format that's difficult to use in most editing programs (.MOV) so after shooting a bunch of video of Burning man I had to write my own converter with FFMPEG to get the video into Windows Movie Maker. If you have the same problem get a copy of ruby and ffmpeg for your windows box and use my script to import it.
NOTE: I just updated the script with /working/ encoder options. The old options would cause output to stop halfway through the video!

Baja Haha 2007

 Snowgoose sailing with spinnaker on the 2007 Baja Haha | by Greg : Much like the sailor tails of yore, I found myself shanghied on a sailboat in a foreign land. This is my story.
More Photos
It all started at the Baja Haha party in San Diego, which takes place the day before the start of the Baja Haha sailing rally to Cabo San Lucas. I had done the Haha twice already, once on my own boat 'Scirocco' in 2001, where I met my girlfriend Cherie and several other great friends like Rennie and Anne. I had done it a second time in 2003 aboard Rennie and Anne's 'Cassiopeia'. Because we all had several friends who were doing the Haha this year the four of us decided to drop into the party and say our goodbyes to those leaving for Mexico. Rennie, a retired United captain, ran into a friend of his, another united captain named Mike. All but one of Mike's crew canceled at the last minute and so he was going to do the Haha very short handed. There was free beer there, and after several of them I decided to volenteer to crew with Mike so he'd have enough crew to have a comfortable trip south.
