No Pants 2k9

[Ben]

January 10, 2009.

Come on LA, let's show the world what we pantsless subway riders can do.
Maybe to make it unique to our area, we can combine it with something.
Ideas?

I'm IN....with my chonies and chucks!!! WHOO HOO!!!!

[fighty almighty]

you will find the Vagine Regime participating all over the country and beyond. the founder and myself will be at the LA event, sans pants. The Vagine Regime is a collective of queer roller derby legends who host fantastic parties at roller derby events with a mandatory No Pants rule ("No Pants Dance Off!). we are thrilled to participate!

Howdy, Agent Nicholson here. I have photographed the last 3 No Pants missions with Charlie in NYC and taken a couple other photos for IE as well.

I'm going to be in LA for this year's No Pants and I would love to help however I can. Ben, it looks like you're taking point on this, give me a shout if you want a hand. I can work on the documentation as well. Folks who are willing to shoot the event can reply here or we can start another thread as well.

This board looks like it is well on its way, now to keep getting the word out... maybe laist? or are there other blogs that should be reminded?

I work at a camera rental house and have access to all sorts of broadcast equipment that I can take out on the weekends for free, so let me know if you need some help filming.

Now that we have an agent in a rental house, we have to think up a mission that we need to shoot on the Phantom! :P

[Juliet Verni]

We actually have 6 Phantom HD's! We also have the Miro, about the size of the old Sony Mavica digital still camera, and it shoots 1,265 fps at 800 x 600 onto a compact flash card. Sooooooo, if we ever needed to do a quick slow motion thing, just let me know.

As for small HD cameras, yeah, the HVX200 or EX1 would be the smallest we have. But who edits all this footage and how do we combine footage? Is there gonna be someone with a laptop, card reader, and external hard drive at the end of our ride?

[D]

If you can, we can meet after and I can grab your footage. If you use the EX1, I can read the card with my computer... if you're using anything else, we'll just have to go through USB.

Send me your cell number and we'll plan [e-mail]

[Juliet Verni]

All our EX's ended up going out on shoots. :(

[D]

Aww... Too bad. :(

I got plenty of footage today, though! Next missions will be a big camera one, so I'll get in contact with you soon.

[Agent A]

Probably not. However, you can either upload it to an FTP or we can meet up sometime and exchange footage.

If you are an editor yourself, I encourage you to edit the footage. We used to have a media person who handled this planning, but work swallowed him whole. See you Sat.

what we usually do is all meet up and give the videographers tapes and then get them back at the end of the day, I'd be willing to do that. I'll bring some tapes - if people start shooting before seeing me I can switch them out at the end of the day.
