What's The Most Unusual Task You Used Your Scooby For?


Recommended Posts

Posted

There are some rose bushes in my front garden which I wanted rid of. I started off with a garden fork, but after about 2 minutes I got bored. So I grabbed some rope and used the Scooby to rip them out the ground. Job done in about 15 mins :rotfl:.

So what's the most unusual task you've used your Scooby for?

I've lent my old scooby out for action vehicle once or twice -

.. perhaps the biggest thing on a scooby roof?

then this'll be the most expensive thing on a scooby door? :rotfl: 3k scooby, 190k camera!

vijo?! whats that?

I believe that it's a Glasgow colloquialism for 'video' :rotfl:

its a sony900, which is HDCam (but using 35mm prime lenses)

it was for a drama I did a few years ago (i'm a sound recordist)

Interesting!

I guess the 35mm lens-compatibility and large sensor size will be good for capturing that shallow depth of field, 'filmic' look :rotfl:

Not to hijack the thread, but...

Do you always record sound straight to video tape these days? I guess it must be simpler than the (dying) film method of recording sound to a separate medium?

Ah! vijo - of course!

Yeah - the primes are nice, you have to use an adapter on a tape camera though, digiprimes are ok, but not half as nice.

It depends on what your doing - generally, if you doing a drama on film, you obviously have to record seperately, and for a drama on tape, you can stick a wireless guidetrack on the camera, but still record seperately, definately best way. I use a 4channel hard disc recorder for this.. TV documentary stuff u can just stick sound on the camera, quality's isn't as important as workflow.

Film isn't really dying, Its still the best way to work!

Yeah at risk of a hijack - whats your game then?

Mine's been a wedding car to, it was the bridal car :rotfl:

Seems to be trend, Coulty's, Drb's and mine were used as wedding cars too. Sitting at 90 on the way to lock lomond with ribbons flapping about.

Ended up pictured in some wedding mag too.
