New Video! – The Spice Islands – Banda Neira

The crew gets situated in Band Neira, Indonesia after our sail from Australia. We do a bit of yoga, hit the water for some snorkeling, then get to the heart of the Spice Islands by touring a nutmeg plantation and Dutch fortress.

  2. Love your video's. Just found your blog and video channel about a week ago. Do you have a blog post detailing what kind of camera equipment and editing software you use?

    Thanks

    1. Hey Barry! Thanks for watching and commenting! So we don't have a blog about this although we really should. The underwater footage is a Canon G12 in a dive housing which does a pretty good job. We also use a GoPro for some of the wide angle shots because it's so light and small. We sometimes mount this on the end of a fishing pole to get a different perspective, which helps with the wide angle stuff. Most of the video is shot on a Canon M500, which is a pretty basic and cheap camcorder but does great video for the money. For editing we use Adobe Premiere running on normal laptops. I hope this helps but if you have any more questions feel free to email at svdelos53@gmail.com .

      Cheers!

  4. Seriously, has nobody noticed that in the thumbnail posted for the video above, it looks just like Nina's nipple is exposed?? I mean, I watch all your videos anyway - but as my wife and I were scrolling through and deciding on which ones to watch first, I told her "I gotta find out if her tit is really hanging out or not." I was surprised to find out that it was just a very strategically placed water spot on the camera lens, and you must be a genius to find that precise frame to use for your video's thumbnail. Sorry for my mind being in the gutter, but I could help but to write and find out if that was intentional or not?
