Hive Fest - Over 1000 clips, Over 2TB of Footage in Size, Over....... Shooting

in #hivefestlast year (edited)

Every year, I come to HiveFest and tell myself, "Don't overshoot, just do what you need." Then the festival happens, and I ask myself, "But what do you need? What does the community need? What do developers need? What do content creators need? What do people from Mexico, Cuba, Europe, and the USA need? What do people in Africa want to see? What do 'normies' want to see? What does the Blockchain world want to see?" And there's our community, with me in between. Oh yes, or oh no—there's no chance, at least for me, not to overshoot. The reason I attend these HiveFests is to give something of myself, and how I can do it is by doing my best to use my vision to create something that will be watchable and please the people who attend, as well as those who couldn't.

So here I am with a ton of footage, believe it or not, but I've got over 2TB of footage, over 4 hours, and it needs to be condensed to just 2-3 minutes. The process is very time-consuming, and I rely on the editor to handle the finishing part. However, as an attendee and filmmaker, I need to go through the footage and select the best parts to reduce that 4 hours to 20 minutes before it goes to the editor. I don't want the editor to work on it initially, just in case they cut out @starkerz, @theycallmedan, or @blocktrades, among others. So, what I try to do in the process is ensure that everyone is involved. I can showcase both significant and minor parts and anything that only associates with individual attendees.

So I'm finally free to do it, and I'm working hard to condense the footage and deliver it as soon as possible. It will be released at a time when most of you have forgotten about the event, and I hope the video will bring back memories, so everyone will be excited for another event.

Meanwhile I share few screen grabs from the event.

Great shots and a !BEER from me

It was a great event, I'm glad it got so thoroughly documented. Can't wait for the next Hivefest.

Looking good! Do you have a release date?

Looking to finish it second part of the November.

love these stills! I'm sure the video content will turn out awesome!


Hey @mynewlife, here is a little bit of BEER from @detlev for you. Enjoy it!

Wow, 4 hours to 4 minutes. That is a monumental task! I can’t wait to see it!
Thank for being there once again with a keen artistic eye and enthusiasm to document!
You rock RAF!

Trust me, it's a mission, especially when you have to make decision about which shot to get rid with, what style go for, which music to use, that is why as I go I will do those little updating posts with some screen grabs which possibly never make final video. But believe me it's proper grinding to get it done....

I love the way you capture the spirit and energy of HiveFest. Your concern about not missing any important moments or people shows your attention to detail and your understanding of what makes HiveFest so special. It's not just about the big names but also about every participant who contributes to the event. Thank you for your dedication.

I can't wait to see the final result.
See you at Hivefest 9

not just about the big names bu

Exactly, those events are about everyone, that is why I want to include everything including you spoiling my shots

Curious on what you will make of it as I loved the shots from last year in amsterdam a lot as well! (these are already cool screenshots and no I am bummed I missed this edition!)

Well... I tell you that this one is full of the footage, you tell me how gutted are you after I'll post video....
