Flip Camera Ideas
Flip video camcorders combine convenience and economy with ease of use for anyone seeking to capture a special event for future viewing. While the Flip is not without a few drawbacks, its versatility makes it perfect for nearly any amateur recording endeavor. The Flip comes with a TV connection. You can immediately playback the recorded event on a larger screen. The Flip is perfect for close-up shooting in good light with good sound situations. Tripods are readily available for a modest cost, and the cameras are perfect for tabletop-style interviews. Here are a few great ways to put your Flip to use.
Performance Films
Record yourself, a friend or a family member performing a skit, dance, dramatic reading or comedic stand-up routine. Plug in the TV connection, and you will all be able to enjoy the outcome. This is also a perfect way to perfect performance skills. Just for fun, share your videos on You Tube, or submit them to America's Funniest Home Videos.
Living History
Ask your family's patriarchs and matriarchs to share family stories. These can be captured for years to come and added to online family genealogy. Years from now, these recordings will be a wonderful way for future generations to "meet" their ancestors. Also, make recordings of people at key moments in their lives, including newlyweds, new parents, milestone anniversaries, first birthdays, graduations and retirements.
Insurance Record
Make a video inventory of the contents of your house, jewelry boxes and safes. This video will be a vital record in case of theft, flood, fire or other calamities. The video should not be posted online and should be stored off-site. The recording can become an integral component in recovering, replacing or identifying stolen, damaged or missing items.
