Wired Kayaker Video – Scooping Herring

7 Comments

Back in April I went to the 4th Annual Scoop the Herring event at Omega Pond in East Providence. The Event is organized each year by the Ten Mile River Watershed Council. While I was there I filmed a bunch of things and I took a bunch of photos. It took me forever to do it but I did manage to pull together a six minute video about the day. You can read about the day on this post: Scoop the Herring Day.

I finished this video and posted it because tomorrow I am headed over to Omega Pond again for the 3rd Annual Roger Williams Paddle. I’ve attended each one so far and filmed each one as well. I didn’t get last year’s video made though. I’m still so behind. I will eventually make the video.

Tomorrow I’ll be using two Kodak PlaySport HD Digital Video cameras. I will also be using two Xshot Kayak Mounts and two Shots in order to film the event. I look forward to see how these devices all work together. I will try and get that video for it up much quicker.

Disclosure: I was given the Two PlaySport Cameras from Kodak and the Two Xshot Kayak Mounts and Xshots from Xshot.

I’ve been doing some interesting things with Photoshop lately. One great resource is Photoshop Elements Killer Tips. This is a very cool video podcast that helps users master great tricks with Photoshop Elements. I’ll tell you more about it once the event happens next Friday.

But one thing I’ve done with PhotoShop is finally update my Twitter background with a custom one. I detailed info about that on The Wired Kayaker blog. I had a lot of fun working on this and I hope that you get a kick out of it too.

If you look deeper at my Twitter background you’ll see an Easter Egg. That is what prompted photographing some of my Transformers today. They Transformers pictured are Acid Storm and Prowl.

My friend Mo of We’re In A Fight was at SeaWorld today and she saw some folks from IZEA. She even caught a glimpse of Ted Murphy but she was unable to catch him. I tweeted the whole thing but was unable to connect them. It could be that Ted had to go and dry off after being swamped by Shamu.
