Them TentBox roof tents are not so practical on a topbox roof!

Hmmm. Is it the world's loneliest peep show?

Both good calls, Gents.

I was firing up the laptop, on a bright sunny day, to make sure the piece to camera I had just done was acceptable before I left the area.

There was no going back for a retake.

The joys of the life of a moto content creator!!!

Man, I completely missed there would be no trees for shade past certain height in elevation. That is pretty neat adapting to the land.

What model laptop did you use and how responsive was the screen to color changes?

My old school brain was thinking you were changing actual film in a camera, and needed a way to block the sun. Shading a computer screen from glare may be the 21st. century equivalent.

I run a Dell Inspiron 15 5000, if I remember right it was marketed as a Gaming Laptop, it was just covering the spec requirements for editing on Filmora with about 25% capacity. Was an expensive machine given my history, about £1500. I've never bought anything as fancy as that before.

It's getting a little laggy. but Ive not worked out how to correctly clean out all the Render/screenshot caches yet. I clear out the main caches after each edit, but pretty certain there is more lurking somewhere clogging it up. Thats my next task before I start my next project.

The screen's ok for reviewing, transferring and sorting content on the road, but when I edit at home, I've got a couple of screens I hook up to.

I started out with an Alienware 17" myself. Worked great until updating the OS and then the fans ran loud! I remember doing some of my early motovlogger interviews online and the machine was so noisy the other person noticed.

I still have those beast machines in my archives.

That would be a cool motovlog - running a photo gathering mission with film. Then the next episode is dropping the film off. Then another getting it back and going through the shots.

I miss those day, and the magic of watching your film when it got back from the lab. It took time, like hitting a note on a piano and waiting 3 days to hear it, but if the footage was good it was worth it.

I was purging some stuff here at the R-Rated lab and found 5 rolls of 35 mm from about 15 years ago. So I took them in and the place actually was able to get the images! Nothing like seeing the shots on one roll my now 20 year son took when he was 5.

I thought you may have been rolling a cigarette (or something fruitier ) made me think of my youth and the inventive ways we used to try and “roll up” in bad weather conditions. disclaimer - I no longer smoke.

Always good to know that you can still get film developed. In a lot of the art departments where I teach they have done away with traditional dark rooms, and the chemicals used to develop B&W film, or for developing and printing B&W and color photos. Pretty much everything is done digitally where images are corrected and enhanced in programs like Photoshop and Lightroom.

It’s much faster and way cheaper, but I really miss the old school analog/chemical sessions in the dark room. Watching a photo print emerge in the darkroom is pretty magical.

I know right? In high school I was in a graphics arts class. The dark room with that lighting. It could go either way - romantic or about to killed.
