These are videos that we've shot at a few of the launches. The more I watch launch video the more I realize that I need to take the camcorder to more launches. I just need to teach the my 13 year old how to shoot video better. She has a tendancy to try to zoom in on the rocket as it's launching and has an impossible time trying to track the rocket during flight. In other words, the tape was mostly crap and had to be trashed. I still need to use my still camera to get good pics, but I'll be trying to get more video in the future as well.

I had Jessica shooting video at Tripoli Vegas' Hot August Nights launch. It's her second time behind the camera and it took some real work to get her to figure out how to shoot video. She's getting better at it, and she's actually decent at tracking the rocket's entire flight.
