The cam copters during SW at the meeting.....
« on: August 29, 2013, 11:36:48 AM »
During the event meeting at the starting line I noticed a cam copter (*I think that may be my own name for them but you get the idea). I was dancing around, making an azz of myself (I know its hard to believe LOL) for the camera, and would like to know where I could see the video or if anyone knows what the video was for.

Jonny:  I'm in the helicopter business.  If you're talking about the red helicopter, I know who was operating it and can put you in touch with them.

  JH,
  Are you talking about the little "drone" helicopter? I was wondering who was running that one myself.

Yeah, the little remote, noisy thing flying around. If I see a camera or know I am being videoed, I always end up doing some stupid dance or other obnoxious activity to get attention. Its a personality defect and something I am working on.

That was a cool trailer. I wonder if the completed film will be worth the time to go see.

Too bad they couldn't get a shot of JH"s eyes as he was booted out of University Hospital.  They could have made a Halloween special video.  Glad he survived being cut out of the tangled car so he could entertain us all.
