Today, he would have been 12 years old, the faithful companion of all my videos.

He liked to go outdoors in windy weather, rainy weather, during the day, or the night, in the fields, on the rocks.

But because of his age, diving in the sea was to be limited for its waterproofing.

He did climb the trees still higher than I did.

When I said « pottery », he said « mmm mud ! ».

Small drops of resin never disturbed him.

Little bumps would not have stopped him.

And he was not afraid of getting close to the fire.

He was fit for the outdoors.

In the outdoors, he did stand up, unlike the little new one lent to finish the sombrero tuto.

He got along with my old tripod, but with the little new one, tips had to be found.

This new one displays large images to get back home rapidly, saying « it’s ok, as you can see, we can go back home ».

The old crafty one displayed very small images.

It was difficult to see, we filmed a few times, and once in front of the computer, he would laugh at me: « You aren’t going to publish this, are you ? Come on, let’s go outdoors again. »

He was fit for the outdoors.

In the outdoors, he did see very well, even from inside with the door open, but once locked inside, he didn’t see so well.

He was a little deaf, and even when I spoke loud, I didn’t always understand what I had said.

About hearing devices, he said no, so it was not easy to record my voice.

That's why he had told me « rather use voice-overs ».

As regards the style, buttons are not welcome today. But I did find him beautiful.

He enjoyed playing tricks when I charged it for a long time. Back to 2007, january the first, midnight. This joke over and over …

What a puzzle …

His videos were limited to 640 x 480. His way to attract acting followers, ready go go in the outdoors with just a small nudge. Not consumers, pixel-eaters, who facing materials, and even clay, seem to have taken vows of chastity.

Endless viewer ? What a pity !

Such a small amount of pixels dit perfectly suit our friend the computer, who dates back to 2009.

Now it’s an avalanche from the little new one, long-sighted during videos, but not yet 5 years old !

How can I make my tutos without macro video ?

I was lucky to find another small tough one. Never used … what a pity ! An m-2 model, 60 €, second hand.

Come on, let’s go outdoors !

And if all this inspires you, it’s up to you to choose between being a viewer, or an actor.
