Flickr Video Finally Arrived

The Best Just Got A Little Better


This video was shot with the Kodak v705 point and shoot. I'll add some higher quality video tomorrow and you'll be able to see it on my flickr page. The beauty of this embedded player is that I could choose to have no branding from Flickr at all. The current banner at the start, with my face, name and the flickr link, is optional.

Great ride early this morning.  Did you use the Action Mount?

Flickr's the coolest!! (You aren't so bad, either!)

04/09/2008 04:25 AM by Sarah Cooper (Real Estate Shows)


This made me dizzy, you may have heard me said, I never ride roller coasters, this is WHY! But, another reason to put video in my arsenal. I am starting to use Flickr more and more. 

04/09/2008 05:49 AM by Missy Caulk Ann Arbor Real Estate (Keller Williams Ann Arbor, Michigan)


That's pretty good video presentation already, Jeff.

How large is the file, and how long to upload to Flickr, I wonder?

04/09/2008 05:50 AM by Mike Jaquish Keller Williams Realty, Cary, NC (Keller Williams Realty)


So are you heading to the roller coaster day after day?  I want your job Jeff.  I know you do a great job and great music too.

04/09/2008 06:01 AM by Karen Moorhead Ann Arbor Area Real Estate (Keller Williams Realty)


I just got back from the bathroom...that made me way too dizzy...I'm not very good with those rides:) great video Jeff!

04/09/2008 06:24 AM by Neal Bloom-Realtor ® Assoc.-CRS-Weston FL (RE/MAX Premier Associates)


Jeff thanks for the heads up on flickr video. Looks like a great time....I am a big fan of roller coasters!

04/09/2008 06:44 AM by Bill Gassett Metrowest Massachusetts Real Estate (RE/MAX Executive Realty)


Flickr? Nice find - I guess I have to go pro now -did you hade the "six flags" overlay in Flickr?

04/09/2008 07:50 AM by Jason Todd, Real Agent Blogs ( Marketing, Branding + Blogging )


Now this is seriously cool Jeff.  Off to Flickr to check out what I need to do.  I have a video that I played with & edited and haven't decided what direction to go for the hosting - this may be my answer. 

04/09/2008 07:50 AM by Steve Scheer - Denver Real Estate - Highlands Ranch Real Estate (RE/MAX Masters, Inc.)


Jeff, love it! I love roller coasters and this made me dizzy and it was GREAT!

04/09/2008 08:07 AM by Linda Scanlan ~Selling All of North Texas (Hall Team Homes)


Note to self, buy new camera and spend more time learning how to use it....especially on Flickr.  P.S. Learn how to customize AR homepage like Jeff Turner.

04/09/2008 08:10 AM by Lake Norman Real Estate ~ Diane Aurit (RE/MAX at the Lake)


That was great, watched it with my hands in the air!!  I belong to Flickr, but mostly search and download photos.  I need to move up in the world.  Baby steps for me, off to check it out!

04/09/2008 08:11 AM by Audrey June-Forshey, GRI, Gaithersburg, MD (RE/MAX Realty Group)


Jeff - you gotta post an image of the camera that shot this - I was floored.

04/09/2008 08:18 AM by Jason Todd, Real Agent Blogs ( Marketing, Branding + Blogging )


THIS was AMAZING!!!  WOW!  It's going ot be hard to find 50 words for these video posts...

04/09/2008 08:46 AM by Eleanor Thorne, Cary Mortgage Loans (Meridian Residential)


How did you get away with having that thing on the coaster? Did the crew not see it? How did you hang on to it?

 

04/09/2008 08:58 AM by Karen Luke - Henry County Real Estate (Keller Williams Realty )


How did you manage to hold on to the camera the whole time?? That was AWESOME!!

On a second note How did you change the background on the page here??

04/09/2008 10:15 AM by Jeannette Neerpat, e-Pro Coral Springs/Parkland Real Estate (London Realty Corp)


That looks like so much fun. I love roller-coasters. You did very well hanging on to the camera. I would have dropped it for sure. ;-)

Jeannette - Jeff's page looks great eh? If you check out Brad Carroll's blog there are instructions and a custom blog generator tool you can use to accomplish the same effect.

04/09/2008 11:18 AM by Jennifer Wilson - Agent Solutions (Agent Solutions)


Jeff,

How easy or hard was it to work with this?  It looks great. I'm in the market for a new video camera for video tours and would love to get your opinion on the camera you used.

04/09/2008 11:31 AM by Melina Tomson, M.S. Salem Oregon Real Estate Specialist (Tomson Burnham, llc)


Oops, just got sick on my desk from the motion sickness.  I love the new look of your blog.  Us non-tekkie types will have to wait for your tutorial on how to do it.  I read Brad's blog but it was Greek to me.

{Hubba SVW}...

Looks to me like I better locate all those flippin' passwords :)

The quality on this vid is amazing.  

TLW...ROAR!

04/09/2008 01:56 PM by "The Lovely Wife"...Broker Bryant's Wife... (Co-Owner Tutas Towne Realty, Inc.)


Awesome!  I don't feel as sick as from watching Cloverfield, but close.  Thanks Jeff! 

04/09/2008 02:10 PM by Debbie Summers, Seminole County Real Estate (RE/MAX Central Realty Lake Mary, FL)


Never heard of Flickr's will need to check it out!

04/09/2008 02:15 PM by Team Newington (First Priority Financial)


That was cool! I dont go on roller coasters but I loved it... that was just a handheld point and click Kodak that did that? I need to find out more about Flickr as well. I am realizing that video is the new frontier that buyers are going to be expecting. Thanks for keeping us up to date..

Best,

Scott

"Oh yeah baby. Here we go". LOL! Wooo Hoooo! I love it. I took my camera on the rides with me, at the fair. And we have a ride like that at Sea World in Orlando. I love it when my feet are just hanging. My hubby and I LOVE roller coasters!

04/09/2008 07:50 PM by Lisa Hill (Daytona Beach REALTOR®) (Adams Cameron and Company)


You know you're getting old when watching a video of a roller coaster makes your stomach do flip flops. :) Very nice.

04/10/2008 02:02 AM by Pamela Williamson St.Louis, Missouri Real Estate (Nolting Real Estate and Development)


Thanks for the information and video it seems to load quickly and good picture quality. I have been concerned going to video from still photos because of the people that do not have high speed access may have a problem with the size of the file?

04/10/2008 08:15 AM by Terry Westbrook ~ Realtor(R) Grand Rapids Mi Ada/Cascade Real Estate (Five Star Real Estate, LLC Grand Rapids , MI)


Urrrp... This video could cause me to lose my lunch. That's good, right?

04/10/2008 06:53 PM by Rosario Lewis, GRI ~ DDR Realty, Orange County, NY (DDR Realty)


Friends of ours were there last weekend - we'll be there in 2 weeks.  YEAH!  I haven't been to MM for 15 years or so.  It's going to be a blast!!

04/10/2008 10:46 PM by Coeur d'Alene Idaho Homes - Come Live The Life Style - Christina Ethridge (David Swarat's North Idaho Dream Team (GMAC))


The purpose for posting the video was to show the quality of the video compression at Flickr and to show that their embedded player has ZERO branding! So it won't distract from your own brand.

04/12/2008 05:00 PM by Jeff Turner (Real Estate Shows)


Jeff, this was great.  Ninja is our favorite coaster at six flags.  In our elder years we can't take the radical rides anymore...the heads and hearts that is.  FUN!

04/14/2008 10:31 AM by Ginger Foust- Dream Interior Redesign & Staging (Dream Interior Redesign & Staging by Ginger Foust)


Whoa Jeff!  I am waaaaay dizzy now... Two questions:

1.  How did you hold the camera so steady?

2.  How did you add music to the video?  An add'l software program or does Flickr make it easy to do that?

Way cool!

04/15/2008 09:17 PM by Pasadena CA Real Estate - Irina Netchaev (Keller Williams International Realty)


Will go to Flickr to check it. But hated the ride, I do not like them, and even remembering the lst one hurts.

04/15/2008 09:40 PM by Jon Zolsky (FunCoast Realty LLC)


Jeff,

 Thats as close as I am getting to a roller coaster.  My daughter thinks they are so cool but I'll keep my feet on the ground thank you!  Good video nonetheless!

04/19/2008 04:08 PM by Sara Homan (Coldwell Banker Ellison Realty Inc)


Nice, I have been looking for a nice player with not a lot of branding. Thanks Jeff

{SVW Hubba}...

I found all my passwords today :)

When I got myself logged in to Flickr I discovered we can only post vids if we pay $29.95 I think.

They are also only allow 90 seconds of vid...

Hubba I don't think I can get much happening in 90 seconds :)

TLW...ROAR! 

04/22/2008 05:45 PM by "The Lovely Wife"...Broker Bryant's Wife... (Co-Owner Tutas Towne Realty, Inc.)


OMG...I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO THROW UP...LOL

THAT WAS GREAT! 

I am somewhat new here and find this to place to be very fasinating. So much to read and take in! 

Don't think I would have explored this alot without having been stranded at my desk due to a knee injury! Now I can say ~ wow...something GOOD did come of this!!!

Thanks to Mike Mueller  and his little fellas and thanks to Brad Carroll  and now YOU

I think I am getting the hang of this...but still green around the edges from the roller coaster ride!

Thanks sooooo much! 

Patty
