Paul over Orlando! - Skyspot Advertizing.

Pasta knows what he's doing. On the thread that YOU started, Pasta described his credentials, and we had a spirited debate about the merits of certain cameras.
A camera that I thought was perfectly acceptable, in fact quite good, for many tasks, Pasta deemed inadequate. I didn't like that answer because I figured only a camera snob would say that, so I sized him up as a camera snob. Camera snobs typically don't take enough video. But they do know how to use their equipment, and they do have good equipment. They know what they're doing. I'd like Pasta to make his own decision about what the best shots to get are. I'm giving advice, and I recommend that others give their advice, as well as to tell people to video between 7-8

What an idiotic post!

It's not the meat but the motion - knowing HOW to use the damn thing!
 
do you what you can. I will have 50 bucks tomorrow to you before 11am colorado time/1pm eastern. Create a seperate chipin for yourself if you foot the rest of the bill OK:), if you have to go in for the rest. I will make it my goal to get that chipin filled. We need footage of tomorrow for sure to recoup your cost but i will make it my goal to make sure your not in the hole on this if i have to give you a 100 bucks a month until the 900 is covered. sincerely kenny

In my experience dealing with camera snobs, they do know how to use their equipment.

The point is that he's a camera snob, because he dissed the hx9v because point and shoots just don't have good glass.

I have been impressed with the work of the camera snobs. Their audio can be weak. But they do get great images.
And they really seem to skimp on the amount they shoot. Pasta, video everything.

I'm not saying that just because he happens to have a nice dslr that he's a good photographer.

I can not promise that. The guy can not fly in lighting storms. But the LT forecast for tomorrow looks good for the evening. Thank you!

Can't we just end this? Get this done, get a video and stop with these useless arguments. This arguing serves no purpose!
 
I looked at the plane and saw that a circle wouldn't really work. I thought the message ran the length of the plane, rather than the width.

So, perhaps the pilot can run the lights the whole time from whereever he is to Orlando, and do whatever
slowflying tricks that he's accustomed to doing. Flying back and forth over Pastas head seems the most reasonable manuever.

If it takes more gas to fly low, fly higher, if it takes more gas to fly slow, fly faster. Perhaps there could be some sort of tradeoff
between lights and height and speed. Having the lights on longer uses more gas, but having the plane fly higher and faster would save gas.

Where is the pilot leaving from? When is he leaving? Even if the lights aren't on, people along the route can shoot footage of the plane.

What is the exact route? Can you provide a rough map?
 
I have contacted facebook and meetup in Florida. At least one of each.
with this message.

*******************************

Attention anyone in the Orlando area with any type of video camera!
$50 prize for the best footage!

Tonight, this Saturday 24, an airplane will be flying around the Orlando area with a lit sign with Ron Paul Messages Vote Ron Paul.
Ron Paul For President. President Ron Paul. This will take place between 5pm and 9pm (Ideally between 7-8pm). We want as much video of this as possible of
varying qualities. A cell phone video camera would be great, but a 1080p 30 with at least 25mbps would be perfect. This footage
could be used in a long form video broadcast, and it almost certainly will appear in a youtube. Ideally, you could upload this footage to vimeo
and make it available through a download. For more details, more precise details as to time and location, check this thread on Ron Paul Forums.

We'll see if anything happens with that.

Also, where is the plane leaving from?

What time is the plane leaving that airport?

What is the expected time of arrival in Orlando?
 
It's amazing.

Here, it's considered an INSULT by many to say that someone is from the official campaign.

SO I guess you're done denying that it's happening?

Its not that. We'd love to have someone from the official campaign interact with is. We've begged and begged for them to communicate with us. Phone calls, emails, heck, people even go to the campaign offices. But they campaign has always viewed the grassroots as competition, not an asset, and this year seems no different. It's just that they've now hired an RPF insider who is more than happy to destroy our happy little internet home in the name of advancing his own career. Remember, he's always been all about him.

If a campaign staffer was asking the questions, they'd get a lot of respect and support. People here want Ron Paul to win, and they want their contributions to be recognized. But there's no legitimate reason for a campaign staffer to have two accounts. None of the rest of us are allowed that.

First off, i have no idea.

2nd, you made your case pretty well.

You're more anti the guy with his own emoticon?

And he embraces that emoticon?

Yeah. And he's "the" somebody.

The point is that you don't like that guy?

oh. ok.

Don't take it out on the campaign though.

That guy always seemed to be a bit of a self promoter. But, hey, he was visible, doing things.

I don't think I ever interacted with him under the M flag.

And we can't have a bunch of sock puppets?

Didn't know that. If he can have a bunch of sock puppets, and no one else can, I can see how that would seem unfair.
