Eos 550D + Nunchucks = Extreme slo-mo footage :D
So, after a bit of time out from blogging I hope to make a little return.
To update the past few weeks, I have had a motorbike crash, my laptop has died, I have been paid out for motorbike repair, I have bought a new laptop, I have had to buy a new screen to work with new laptop, I bought a new digital SLR camera and I have been playing with all new things a lot!
Here's my latest little experiment.
Shot on my new Canon Eos 550d at 60fps, conformed to 23.98fps using Cinema Tools and edited in Final Cut Pro. Music is 'Stompbox' by Overseer. The 60fps footage at the end is waaaay overkill for the human eye, but is great for slow motion footage.
Awesome.

Homemade DIY Nunchucks
So yesterday, I was at my very good mates house who I train with at kickboxing, and finally got the chance to learn how to use nunchuks. I liked it. I liked it a lot.
Ordered some off the net last night, but decided to make my own today :D
(I'd already made them by the time I took the pics, forgot to take along the way)
Using a piece of spare hardwood we had laying about, I measured 13 inches and marked it with some elec tape
cut them to size using hacksaw
drilled in two holes near the top and one through the middle from top down
laced in strong shoelace and tied together!
sanded down so nice and flat too somewhere in between...
Sorted :) They feel a very nice weight (quite light) for training with for the first time, the ones I have ordered are hardwood with a metal chain (5") with handle length of 12". The ones I have made here are 13" (but still 5" shoelace chain lol)
Here is my first video:
I do not pretend to be a master or expert, I have only just learnt the basics. I havent edited the video to cut out the bad bits, obviously i make a few mistakes but I like to think I am getting the hang of it.
You can even start customising your with electrical tape, and the like.
Disclaimer - A quick bit about me - i've been doing Ju Jitsu since the age of 7 - 18, currently also been kickboxing for 8 months.. martial arts is what i've grown up with so i'm not just a wannabe :)
