Jim Kukral: Win My Flip Camera During The Superbowl Halftime

    Jim,

    What format are you using to upload to YouTube? The images look beautiful, much better than most of the stuff on YouTube. I know the camera is nice but wow.

    Hey Stormy, thanks! I use the Flip cam to record. The trick is to have enough lighting behind the camera, and not so directly "hot" on your. I bounced this light off the ceiling. It's not perfect, but worked. Then I import the raw .avi file from the flip into Sony Vegas. I do not edit the levels at all.

    Then I render to .wmv files and use Tubemogul.com to upload. Nice and easy.

    The key is lighting. I'm using a "work" like I bought from Home Depot now. It burns hot in temp, but it works. $50 :)

    I'm interested in the lighting you used. You mentioned a "work" from Home Depot. Can you clarify what that is and what you mean by burning hot in temp?
