This was a chaotic day. I originally planned to shoot this with a GH2 but unfortunately my pre-order is running late. I'm telling myself to not worry too much about it and at least the 14-140mm lens got a firmware update. I was able to borrow a glidecam but I said let me try out the updated firmware. The bad news is that I did not realize that the stabilizer was off. The videos are one thing but some of my photos could have looked better. This is really not funny at all! Still, even if I did bring a glidecam, in some of my shots it wouldn't have been a good idea since the last thing I need is to bang someone with it by accident. With all that said, it would have been even better if I had a TM700 or SDT750 at that time. Those camcorders are far, far better off for shooting events like this although in the indoor scenes, that you'll see toward the end, either a GH1 or GH2 is more ideal since I'd be using the 20mm lens.


As you'll see in this video, there were really a lot of people. I got myself tired holding the camera up in the air trying to record every single person coming out of the pub, which is called Lir Tavern on 903 Boylston Street, Boston, Massachusetts. Basically part 1 consists mostly of a few people fooling around outside and the people coming out of the Pub. Part 2 will have scenes of me walking around the street recording everybody Part 3 is mostly in the sidewalk since the police kicked us out. Part 4 is when I finally decided to enter the Pub and see what action I will find. Now I could have gotten much more footage especially once all the people get out of the pub to go home and obviously a lot of them will be extremely drunk by that time so who know what kind of footage I missed but I really didn't felt like staying longer and decided to go home.

As you can see, you're seeing almost every footage I have of that event. Completely RAW.

I have not been uploading many videos lately but I'm going to now change that. Videos will be uploaded more frequently from now on so feel free to subscribe to be notified. They'll be a lot of variety.
