Amazing traditional event caught by balazer's "Cake v2.3" http://personal-view.com/talks/discussion/5673/amazing-traditional-event-caught-by-balazers-cake-v2.3 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 18:27:20 +0000 tetakpatak 5673@/talks/discussions Breathtaking, since ca 400 years traditional Santa Claus processions take part every year in many localities in the central region of Switzerland. This is just raw-edited video, to transmit the impression of such events. As we are very international forum here, please let know if there is something similar going on in your region?

Particulary this event took part in the small village on the Lucerne lake called Beckenried.

This was the most difficult video editing in my life: I have kind of slow PC right. It is fast enough for hard audio editing, but it just can not handle GH2+Cake v2.3 bitrates (thanks, @balazer!) of average 66mbps reaching nearly 100mbps peak bitrate. So, I wasnt able to playback in the editing software at all, after 1-2 seconds the PC would struggle nearby freezing. Maybe it's not the PC but very simple editing software who is cause of the problem, no idea. So, I've wrote down timecodes of the excerpts to be used and edited them just "on feeling" and routine....

This lovely, little and beautiful event is much smaller than the famous, big one organized in the city called Küssnacht. The circumstances were nearly impossible for recording: temperature -10°C / 14°F and so much crowd that I could only strech the tripod on its full length and keep it with folded legs on my hip. Better than handheld, though....

Some details about the content of the recorded event are written in the video text, directly on YouTube. And here are few liks about this kind of traditional event in the region, if somebody interested:
