So did you go out and see the videos and how they came out with the two views? Thinking about the possibilities... they are limitless really.. Down camera! Attached to the throat line by velcro only. Talk about trust
And another!
Its a totally cool location.. and you can rotate it around. I have tried a couple of different directions.
The one problem I had with this mounting place is its a total toss up if your going to get good video.
The chances of the line twisting or the camera shifting are great. Worth it if you have two or three cameras.
Or you can try these places....
Far out and back side...
Way far out on a 6 foot pole.... Awesome!
My favorite shot. Showing the passengers... showing the bottom of the basket.. showing the terrain around.
What I call a Hollywood position. Or Hollywood Shot!
There are times when you have skydivers on board. A good place is the sides as well as right down off the front of the burner frame. Here you can see the left cam but there is only a clamp where the down cam should be.

That's because we ran out of time and the balloon had to get off the ground. Balloons wait for no one... and trying to reach up and connect the camera became impossible. Missed some great shots and video because of it. The video I made for the Pilot turned out fantastic even without it. But it could have been more.
Since I have been "under the weather" I have missed out on some special balloon flights. I am hoping to be able to get out with the great fiends I've missed for too long.
Time to fly again!
Time to capture the excitement again!
