We have shot 6 days of fishing so far on the Deschutes River. It has been pretty exciting so far with fires closing the upper river last week. We were waking up an extra 30 - 60 minutes early to try and get the fishing spots we wanted. Right now is the end of August lull in the fish so we have a lot of footage of casting and some really cool wildlife footage. Friday morning we were the first and for most of the day the only people on the section that burned in the fires. It was amazing to see the changes mother nature had gone through since the last day were were up there. We were some of the last up there and the first to go back. Were we were fishing did not burn but the other side of the river was burnt from over the hills all the way down to the train tracks. This made it a lot easier to spot wildlife on the far side of the river. We got shots of heard of 7 big horn sheep, great blue herons, osprey and king fishers, but no steelhead.
Now its time to get elbow deep in the 6 days of footage I have shot so far. My camera shoots about 1 gig per minute, so far I have close to 600 gigs of footage. I have a Panasonic HVX200 and I record to a Firestore FS-100 DTE Hard drive, 100 gig hard drive holds 110 minutes of DVCPRO HD 720p60 footage, and less if I am shooting at 1000 or 2000 frames per second. I just watched some footage that I shot of James Sampsel at 1000fps and slowed it down to 40% and it looks so good.
Time to get back to the hard work.
