Google Earth Pro

[Halcyon Yachts]

Thanks to Dylan for letting us all know that Google Earth Pro is now free to use...

We recently delivered a yacht to Northern Ireland so I had a good opportunity to use the "movie maker" feature when editing the film. Here are the results:

I used 'live mouse navigation' rather than 'saving a tour'. I think it may look smoother if you first save a tour and do it that way...

The delivery was very cold and it took 15 days to cover 1000 miles!

Effective, and a nice soundtrack too. Who is it?

I'm surprised the UKBA didn't ask for the cameras to be turned off when they boarded.

How strange for two boats to be called "Kind of Blue" it is an unusual use of English and for two boats to use it is even stranger.

Why?

Not for jazz fans, perhaps!

Shame the phone camera was vertical. That insert looks rediculous.

Why don't people film the way we see the world. eg 16x9 horizontal.

The music is by Humphrey Milles and it's a cover of Mr Brightside by The Killers...

I know - fantastic sailors; rubbish camera men!

Does Google Earth Pro work on the Mac?

Out of curiosity Pete - did the UKBA get stroppy about you filming them. That bit got cut very quickly.

Dutch and Kind of Blue, the Dutch couple on their Starlight immediately crossed my mind too. Few boat names are unique.

They didn't seem to mind too much... The guys just stopped filming out of courtesy and to welcome them aboard!

I do wonder how they would have reacted if the entire inspection had been filmed - I imagine that in this day and age it isn't uncommon for people to do that.

Nice video, (apart from the rotated sections!)

Under what authority?

 

[dylanwinter]

Under what authority?

probably under no authority

except that they have the power to make your life deeply uncomfortable

I would have asked - and then if told no said okay and put the camera down

Not really - it's one of the all-time Jazz greats, by Miles Davis.

edit - sorry, beaten to it.
