Shipping Wars..gives reality TV a bad name (worse name)
Hi All! Happy New Year
Hposter here....
well, I just viewed the Shipping Wars scene of the pickup of the prototype CRT for miniman82, and it was a real set-up! The producer told Anna and I, tell us all about your TVs..and the prototype in particular. I see that when they edited it, the trucker adds, I hate it when they tell me about their stuff....which is actually pretty funny, since his producer asked us to tell them. I see from his expressions, that it was a set-up, because he has a grimace...which meant the producer already knew exactly how he would edit the shot.
Then they had me go into the truck 3 or 4 times (only once is shown), to ask him about how the CRT/set was being packed...'Make it seem like you're very interested that it's secured properly' That's where they add, in editing, that he hates to have people question his technique. Hmmmm
Of course, it was delivered with no catastrophes, so that was nice!
For anyone that wants to record the video, or parts of it, go online and download a free program called HyperCam 2. Then, set up the screen, use HyperCam 2 to delineate the area of your screen the playback is actually on, and click record..then start the video..and Viola! you have an AVI clip that Media Player or others can play...so you can see that pesky Poster, over and over again.
If you have problems with no sound, just plug in your mike, put it touching your speakers, and then it'll pick up the audio as well.
See ya on TV...(I hope not!) Harry
