A test of the Ray-Ban Wayfarer Meta Gen 2 glasses, this time while driving. On my way to Mark's yesterday to make some music with the guys, I shot some video with the new glasses. Not necessarily for public consumption, but I wanted to see how the on-board mics would handle the audio and how the 3k vertical video would hold up when cropped to horizontal.
No other post production video work done other than adding a few titles and transitions - no adjustments for exposure, contrast, and color. Other than a lot of jerky head movements (I keep my head on a swivel when driving in this Phoenix traffic), the video is decent. I can see where this new addition will fit in with my other cameras... and I will be sure to use it when I don't need to make all those head movements... you can't trust just your mirrors, even with all the safety stuff on the vehicles that beeps at you when it thinks you are getting too close to other traffic (or it is getting too close to you).
Let's cut to the video...
Here's what the format would look like without the crop...
And, with the crop...
The issue for me comes in using a video production software (iMovie) that doesn't have a set up that works with vertical video. It takes that vertical clip and puts it in the middle of a black horizontal frame.

Yeah, who cares about that test video - where's the cat content? Easy, big fella - here ya go...
Murphy and Stella sharing a bar stool in front of the patio door. Not an easy shot to get because I can't get further to the side because of furniture in the way. And, I am shooting into the sun in the east from this angle. Technical stuff aside, two cats sharing a space - one big furry boy and on short hair little girl. Together. Oh, they still have their rowdy moments, but I appreciate these sweet, sharing times.
