<title>Ever film your kid/grandkid in sports...</title>
<description> Rampage's post on the main board reminded me of this where he said he usually screws up videos at the games due to excitement. Welllll...

Try taking video your kid/grandkid. :laughing Now actually I'm pretty good.... lot of experience, over 15 year of it filming not just my grandkids but games where I didn't know a single player. 

My daughter, however, is the worst. As soon as her son breaks free it's 100% sure you going to either get a blue sky for the next 10 seconds, a close up of the grass, or her feet... one of those three guaranteed!

Her husband is only slightly better... but for a different reason. He's a smart phone addict.... even during games he can't quit doing whatever in the hell it is he does on his smart phone meaning he misses plays entirely. If my grandsons make a fabulous play it's almost a sure thing he'll miss it.

I was alone filming... my comments, audible, were more often than not 'inappropriate. hey, I'm Italian.<br /><br />I became an expert at editing my comments OUT.... out, but, I screwed up a few times. :laughing But worse....<br /><br />I made hi-light films and added music. Mostly I used MY choice in music, which worked BUT... a few times I added 'current' hip-hop/rap... and since I could not understand what they were saying in the songs some filthy crap made it thru. :laughing In fact, they made the comments I made and edited OUT seem pale in comparison.]]></description>

So there aren’t usually any sudden moments to shock me and my camera hand.<br /><br />I’ve had to bite my tongue many times as I’ve watched parents film a child’s race in portrait.]]></description>

<title>AAARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHH</title><link>https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?4,1126374,1126483#msg-1126483</link><description><![CDATA[ you just mentioned the major thing that drives me up a wall... people taking video in portrait mode. Hell.... I can't even tolerate photos in portrait mode.<br /><br />Last year I couldn't make a couple of grandson basketball games so a guy at the game streamed it on Youtube.... IN PORTRAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You couldn't see @#$#.<br /><br />Ok, lastly, I have to be honest. I am no where near as calm cool and collected as you. I do well taking video due to experience BUT... I screw up at times. I get excited. In fact, one of the reasons I retired from being &quot;The&quot; videographer was so I wouldn't have to worry about that any more and I could just watch the game. I am, after all, Italian, and we are not known for staying cool and calm like you.... nor doing anything at all without a lot of body, hand, leg, head, motion. :laughing]]></description>

I am a pretty quiet person by nature so I tend to remain calm even if the results are good. Sure there’s probably a couple of videos where you want to mute the volume at the end, but for the most part I’m pretty steady. Speaking of parents videoing their kids, one of my pet peeves in life is when I see people videoing while holding their phone in portrait instead of landscape. Such a waste of a golden moment.]]></description>
