The rest of the clan, however, remains immersed in that life - especially my brother-in-law.</p> <p>Steve, when he's not hunting, working or taking care of other things, is parked in front of his satellite set and watching a hunting channel that quite frequently repeats its content throughout the week, if not daily - 24/7. I tried to call him to find out the channel ID but he must be "out hunting." It might be same already referred here.</p> <p>My point about the repeat programming is that this channel could be very receptive to new, fresh, quality and consistent content.</p> <p>If not, and I find out, I will share. Just thought you'd be interested to know that this, for the knowledgeable and initiated camera person(s), could be a lucrative production field.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/outdoor-video-question#post-56209 Tue, 09 Mar 2010 10:34:46 +0000 rakklub 56209@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Thanks I will check that out</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/outdoor-video-question#post-56189 Tue, 09 Mar 2010 01:52:09 +0000 anindya49 56189@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Have a look at the following site:</p> <p><a href="http://www.huntingfootage.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.huntingfootage.com/</a></p> <p>It seems to cater specifically to the kind of projects you have in mind.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/outdoor-video-question#post-56182 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 19:43:51 +0000 rakklub 56182@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Does anyone here do hunting video's?  I am only interested in filming outdoors/hunting (no weddings).  I have a question on how to promote this kind of business.  Myself, My dad, and my husband got the equipment we need and I have produced 3 DVD's so far and have gotten a lot of good compliments.  Right now we were asked to go to maine with an outfitter to produce a promotional video about guided bear hunts.  My question is:  How or where can I get information on writing up a good contract?  Does anyone have any experience in this field that would be willing to give me some advice?  Like I said I am just starting to do this as a business opportunity instead of a hobby, and it seems to be something that is demanded in my area.  Also, any suggestions on how much to charge?  Do you charge by the hour or day?  Any help would be appreciated.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/hunting-video-camera-gl2-or-xha#post-41723 Mon, 24 Nov 2008 16:57:19 +0000 holsum 41723@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>So did you ever decide on a camera and housing setup for your hunting video?</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/hunting-video-camera-gl2-or-xha#post-40010 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 04:05:52 +0000 saintkelley 40010@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Bruce,  Thank you for your insight.  i just called my brother and he is calling the company he had placed an order with to try to cancel it.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/hunting-video-camera-gl2-or-xha#post-40008 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 03:05:34 +0000 robGRAUERT 40008@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> you don't need to go HD. Barely anyone has HD in their house yet.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/hunting-video-camera-gl2-or-xha#post-39996 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 10:24:59 +0000 BruceMol 39996@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I'm with Birdcat on this. I bought an XHA1 (which I love) after my comsumer grade camcorder froze - literally - on an outdoor job in November. After paying the $ for an XHA1, and seeing all the knobs and rings etc. there is no way I would take it hunting without it's own force field! I know what you mean about going HD, but you gotta ask your self if anyone will buy a hunting DVD in blu-ray. I suspect some would, most wouldn't. From a business decison point of view, finding the bluray buyer may outweigh the cost of buying the HDV camcorder, the BD burner, the blank discs and then, well, have you tried editing multiple tracks of HDV on your computer? I was rudely surprised to find my 1 year old computer was underequipped in RAM, Video Card, CPU and BUS speed. Worked great on SD though.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/hunting-video-camera-gl2-or-xha#post-39994 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 09:58:25 +0000 saintkelley 39994@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Booooooo Hissssss!</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/hunting-video-camera-gl2-or-xha#post-39988 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 05:51:15 +0000 birdcat 39988@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Ask Sarah Palin ;-)</p> <p>In all seriousness, he should look at one that is somewhat ruggedized - I think Panasonic has some that are weatherproof (waterproof to three feet or so and drop-proof from five).</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/hunting-video-camera-gl2-or-xha#post-39985 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 02:11:56 +0000 saintkelley 39985@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>My brother wants to record his deer hunts with the possibility of producing a DVD that he could sell.  He is thinking of buying the GL2.  I wonder if he should go ahead and buy something like the Canon XHA so that he could potentially sell hi def dvds....would it be worth the upgrade to spend the $$$ on the XHA?  Any thoughts would be appreciated.</p> <p>Kelley</p>
