Usually we have at least one of our guys who brings a camera to document things over the course of the day, but I'm like YOU in that I am generally so busy, I forget to fool with it. When I DO remember to bring the camera or film, I try to do it after hours so as not to spoil the illusion for the public.HMSAcasta.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00524563116891936222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1454536834008495324.post-59428648385746816162015-06-09T12:05:31.235-05:002015-06-09T12:05:31.235-05:00I shoot quite a good deal of footage at historical...<i>I shoot quite a good deal of footage at historical events.</i><br /><br />I would dearly like to know how you shoot footage and/or take photos at events; while I take a camera and spare batteries with me to events, I am generally far too busy partaking n the event itself to remember to document it - and the same goes for the people I'm with. Not to mention of course the amazing anachronism it would be for people in the early nineteenth century to have even a box brownie camera with them.<br /><br />If it's that you have someone with you in modern dress who is there just to document your events and activities, how do you get them into the event without paying - if your events are for paying public; the vast majority of events here in the UK are only open to paying public and the ticket price can be anything from £5 to £25 depending on the event, its organisers and the site owners (for example, the annual Detling Military Odyssey is held at the Kent County Showground and the site owners make a small fortune from the price they charge to hold events there.)Sharpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15522672154379689205noreply@blogger.com
