RZ Video Podcast #11 – More Adventures in Stanley Park Damage

Uncle John — Sun, 01 Apr 2007 05:08:37 +0000

The park is cleaning up from the mess that was caused from the December 2006 storm. We made a trek to see how things are going, especially since a lot more of the park has been cleared of obstacles on the trails. The best part was the tree that we encountered in the last video podcast. This time it was cut in a half and we were surprised to find that someone actually took the time to calculate the rings to determine its age. And yes, once again, another cellphone capture.

RZ Video Podcast #10 – Forbidden Stanley Park Trek

Miss604 — Thu, 04 Jan 2007 04:22:57 +0000

We’ve walked around the Park several times since it was closed several weeks ago [audihertz] after a storm with hurricane-force winds blasted its way through. Understandably shut off to public due to the branches, debris and fallen trees that litter the landscape to such a degree that upon beholding the devastation, a lump forms in your throat. Mother Nature sure did a number on the place. Yesterday local news was reporting that the Park had been re-opened [cbc], mostly because of the loss in tourist revenue. Stanley Park Drive, the perimeter road, was opened up although several trails were still closed off to the public. We decided to walk around one of the barriers blocking our favourite, and most frequently traveled trail. The video documents our finds. This is another video attempt with the Nokia 6682 camera phone, so if you have any comments on the quality (and even the content) please let us know in the comment section. Run time 20:07

RZ Video Podcast #9 – Coal Harbour with the camera phone

Uncle John — Fri, 29 Dec 2006 21:41:13 +0000

On a whim, we found ourselves downtown yesterday and couldn’t resist taking a walk down by the water before heading home. With the Nokia in my pocket, we made this video to put it into a podcast. It was a gorgeous day as the sun was setting on Vancouver.

Be sure to leave feedback on these vids we’ve been making with our cellphones. I know that the quality might be slightly lacking, but it’s so easy to make them. Turn around is quick and not very painful. We’ll probably keep doing little vids like this from time to time, so I hope you don’t mind seeing our faces once and a while.

RZ Video Podcast #8 – Cruising in the car with the camera phone

Uncle John — Sun, 24 Dec 2006 18:15:51 +0000

This is a major experiment with cellphone technology to do a video podcast. Not the best quality in the world, but in a pinch, this Nokia can do some nice stuff. Leave comments and do your worst. I told you we’d do something before Christmas, and this is coming in right under the wire.

We were driving around, checking out the festive lights in the area, so I had the idea to make this vid while we made our way back home from Christmas Eve gatherings. A year in review, hopes for the new year, and other various things that I can’t remember. Watch it to find out. We have Christmas things to enjoy right now.

Best wishes this holiday!

RZ Video Podcast #7 – Downtown Vancouver; Granville Street; Lighting of the Inukshuk

Uncle John — Wed, 10 May 2006 23:20:21 +0000

A collection of vids that I’ve made with my digital camera, here is another video podcast for your enjoyment. I even make a little appearance in this episode to further explain what’s going on.

RZ Video Podcast #6 – Riding the SkyTrain

Uncle John — Tue, 28 Mar 2006 21:17:24 +0000

This video podcast is a collection of clips that I have taken over a period of various rides on the SkyTrain. The motion might be a little too much for the encoding to handle, and my camera does not take the highest resolution of movies. More so, I can’t afford a compact flash card with greater capacity to shoot a lot of high resolution movies. I might experiment with that in the future, but doing so fills up the two, 128Mb cards that I currently own very quickly.

I hope you enjoy seeing what it’s like riding on the SkyTrain. I know that I enjoy every ride I get to take.

RZ Video Podcast #5 – Walking Around Stanley Park

Uncle John — Mon, 20 Mar 2006 23:42:55 +0000

This video podcast takes you along with me as I walk through Stanley Park. These vids were shot with my digital camera during the recording of episode #74 of the regular podcast. It’s short, but I do my best to give you some of the sites in the park and surrounding areas on a gorgeous morning back in February.

RZ Video Podcast #4 – All Around the Lower Mainland

Uncle John — Thu, 09 Mar 2006 19:15:45 +0000

Another experiment into video, this podcast is a collection of videos that I have made over the past few months with my digital camera. The quality of the video isn’t the most superb, but I am attempting to use what I have to create as much original content that I can. I’m also doing my best to show you more of Vancouver, BC through my Iowan eyes.

This video takes you through downtown Vancouver, shows what a snowy day in New Westminster and Surrey is like, driving through downtown, over the Pattullo Bridge, the Trans-Canadian Highway at night, over the Lions Gate Bridge in the dark, and ends in Coal Harbor during sunset.

Music used in this video podcast:

Vate – stravinsky (The RadioZoom Podcast theme music)
Vate – marimba
Grigor Iliev – winter story
Vate – patria / extranjero

RZ Video Podcast #3 – First Canucks Game

Uncle John — Fri, 25 Nov 2005 03:35:00 +0000

My adventures of living in Vancouver continue with this short movie I made from my first Vancouver Canucks game at GM Place. It was an amazing experience that I will more than likely never forget. My hope is to just share some of these experiences with my subscribers as I go through discovering all the neat and wonderful things that this city has to offer.

RZ Video Podcast #2 – Downtown to Stanley Park

Uncle John — Mon, 21 Nov 2005 23:00:00 +0000

This is a lengthier project into the realms of video podcasting. For those from Vancouver, you might not find this to be too interesting. I took a walk downtown and then into Stanley Park with my digital camera with the intent of coming up with some video to edit together for this podcast. I’m still learning how to make this all work in nearly all aspects, but I think I’m getting the hang of things.

By all means, tips and rips on what I am doing and not doing are very much appreciated!

RZ Video Podcast #1 – Sunday Skytrain

Uncle John — Mon, 07 Nov 2005 22:11:00 +0000

Another attempt at video podcasting heading your way. Sunday found Rebecca and I venturing out to New Westminster for some family gatherings, a small shopping excursion to Metrotown, and then made our way back home on the SkyTrain. On the way home, I made a series of short vids that I combined, threw some music underneath, and gave a little insight to the whole transit experience in and around the lower mainland. Nothing too spectacular, but I’m still learning. You have to remember, I’m an audio guy by trade.

RZ Video Podcast #0 – Beta Test

Uncle John — Wed, 26 Oct 2005 00:14:00 +0000

This is a complete and total experiment. I’m not even sure that I will do a lot with the world of video podcasting, but I do have ideas as to the potential of what can be done in the future. At least I can have some fun with creating some content of my own.

This is just a simple little video that I made using iMovieHD. The clip is take while walking down Pender in downtown Vancouver, BC. It was the closest and most easy clip to use in this purely test phase of my podcasting adventures.

Take it for what it is and enjoy!
