Hi,

As promised to George and Chip, here is a link to my kite buggy video that was shown by Lenka during the Ozone party night:

A big thanks to the organising team and everyone who made it out to the pre-event and Ivanpah. Another great year with even more to see and do. I even liked the nuclear winds on friday :roll:

A quick foot note. I did some extra shooting with the Chip on the last couple of days with my iPhone strapped to Chip's revolution kite. Expect a re-edit of the above with more 'kite' in it. As always time is the enemy, but I'll put it up here first once it's done. ;-)

All the best,

Mark.

Thanks everyone for the feedback :)

I used a Contour video camera (http://contour.com/) gaffer taped to the end of a pole and then used Adobe After Effects to make the pole disappear.

Like a lot of things once you've done it you figure out a better way afterwards - I've since sold the Contour and bought an iPhone 4s which does a better job. Whilst I was at NABX this year I strapped it to Chip's Revolution and we came up with some interesting footage.

I've just got back from LV so give me a few weeks or so and there should be a bit more 'kite' in the next edit.
