Video Camcorder question

[disneydad08]

Hey all,

I'm always the cameraman for our vacations... I'm never in any shots! Anyone know of any services that will record me and my family while at disney? thanks for any feedback! Looking forward to our trip!!

I've haven't heard or witnessed any such service. As the videographer I have the same problem myself. I came up with a few solutions but they aren't too practical. I have taken video holding the camera from my body, it turned out well but of course you have to be fairly close. On other occasions I have used a tripod and/or asked someone to film us.

LOL yeah the infamous crowded close up of the family!! I know that one too well! Tripod would work at times, do they allow use of tripods at Disney? The problem with that is everything is set and stationary. I would like to capture the action of us all enjoying the teacup rides etc though, and I can't just leave my camcorder and tripod by itself!!! Anyone else have this dilemma? Or do you know of a service that will document your experience? If I find one I will let everyone know!! So let me know if you are interested. Thanks again!
