[Dude_ger]

Hi, some boring evenings made me set up this page about some filmmaking and other diy stuff, quick and dirty solutions:

https://www.facebook.com/Kitchen-Table-Solutions-223193894881928/

 

I´ll post things i had to do for shooting and fun. If you like, have a look, it´s just a hobby.

Thanks

Love those dirty solutions!

Maybe you can explain each project with more info, schemes, etc

Yeah i ll try. I just startet some months a go to take pictures of all that shit

My favorite is the slider control box.  Shows expertise with both flat-head and phillips screw technologies

Here is my last DIY, with arduino: 

Nothing like a Broomstick with gaffer tape.

So I take it you're using an arduino to fire the flash once it "hears" the gunshot?  Cool!  

[Grimor]

That's right.  its a long exposure take (2sec)  in dark room with ultra fast flash light (1sec/35.000)

This is very cool! But I don't think you need to do it this way. I would almost approach it like photographing lighting. I would shoot in bulb mode with rear curtain flash. Keep the camera open just before the shot. Let the person shoot and the close the camera to trigger the flash.

Don´t think  this method works with so fast  moving object. Camera/Rear curtain need to be really fast triggered and is easiest is to fire the flash units thru arduino and sound sensor.

In this photos we dont want any motion blur, and the exotic and really dangerous "air gap flash" is the key. Air Gap Flash Unit is a very serious DIY and for brave men only.(not me for sure)
