I've been playing around with my video record/edit/produce setup and have been able to generate some better results. Attached is some vision I recorded last night at the ANU Chess Club. There is some general shots of the club (highlighting the well lit and spacious facilities!) and then a quick grab of a game between Emma Guo and Jonathon Kocz. I've even been able to add some audio commentary over the top.
The conversion process involved recording in 3GP format (2 clips), converting to avi format, then combining it using some video editing software (and attaching titles and commentary). It took about an hour from conversion to production, the hardest part being the actual commentary (which probably sounds naff anyway).Many thanks to Jonathan Paxman for the tip about "Super" conversion software.
Of course it may seem a little bland, but it is early days (at least for me). To this end, it is worth remembering that the biggest grossing film of 1896 was "Man walking down street".

Of all the parts of the game to post, it had to be the bit where I blundered! *sigh* :)
Yeah, sorry about that, but it's all I had to work with :)
Good attempt Shaun. Sound was good but picture resolution was a bit low for my old eyes. Maybe use name badges and focus on the people not the chess board?

While your budget may not stretch to a steadicam, a tripod can be a useful tool.

The equipment is pretty basic, which accounts for the quality of the video. A $100 no-name hand held video recorder (mobile phone quality) is my current weapon of choice.
As a 'proof of concept' it is OK, but I plan to upgrade to something better in the near future.
