Action Stations WW2 Weekend
« on: March 13, 2016, 09:32:30 pm »

Portsmouth Model Boat Display Team were invited to put on their WW2 convoy display as part of Action Stations WW2 weekend in Portsmouth's Historic Dockyard. Great weather for both days so with a little help from the Surface Warship Association we did our best to entertain the crowds!

Big thank you to the two guys from Surface Warships for providing their two S-Boats again this year. Once again, despite breaking one on the Saturday, it was back in action on the Sunday, following a quick dry docking overnight.

And here are some videos from the weekend. This my first time out trying to film this lot so I apologise for the quality - still learning editing and transistions


This first on is from a camera clamped to a floating pontoon - next time I must remember to set the focus manually as the camera kept trying to focus on Adrian's smoke!

We mounted a GoPro on the Dazzle camouflaged ship. These are cut down from about an hours footage each which mostly show the ship going round and round and round while the display assembles.
The first was form Saturday just to see what Adrian's charges looked like when they went off up close. The second is from Sunday just to see what the view was from the front
