The shooting cycle On the 1st of December 1984, Alan Dyall set off to cover the Caltex Great Victorian Bike Ride. Organised as part of Victoria’s 150th birthday celebrations, Alan shot the nine day ride, cycling from Woodonga to Melbourne with more than 2000 other bike riders. In order to both ride and videotape the event, Alan organised his bike with a special trailer rig to safely house his videotape equipment. This clip is from the completed production and is narrated by Sally Hart. |

A festival of video From the earliest days of both Turtle Video and Footscray Community video, local festivals always attracted the centres cameras. The "Saltwater River" festival in Footscray, the Williamstown festival, "Back to Altona" and the "Down to Earth" festival in Canberra were all recorded by local video makers. From single camera recordings to multi-camera setups with a vision mixer, the recording and playback of local festival tapes would always generate a lot of interest. This clip is representative of the sort of footage that would be shot and was edited in 2011 from a recently discovered tape. The half inch videotape transfer was done by James Paterson from the Australian Television Archive. |

The joys of editing Half inch open reel videotape editing was a challenge for all early videomakers. Here are the steps. 1. Manually cue the record machine to the point where you want to edit to the next piece of footage. 2. Manually cue the playback machine to the start of the shot you want to use. 3. Manually wind the tape reels on both machines back three times as pre roll. 4. Put both machines into pause. 5. Turn both machines to play at the same time. 6. Press the edit button on the record machine. 7. Anticipate if the footage on both machines will be at the right place at the right time as they roll up to the edit point . . . and if you got it all correct . . . 8. Press the record button at the edit point. 9. If you got it wrong, return to step 1. This video demonstrates the frustrations new users experienced learning to edit. Trouble with the videos? |
