National Camcorder Day
Take out the camcorder and make some memories on #NationalCamcorderDay
20 January is National Camcorder Day, a day created to pay tribute to videography of all varieties.
Wherever you live in the world, chances are your country has a television show that manages to both delight and irritate viewers, but at the same time makes them feel a bit uncomfortable and also a little more self-confident. We are, of course, talking about programmes involving home videos – sharing everything from embarrassing prom nights to dangerous stunts gone wrong. To make it more interesting, some saucy accidents and Great Danes dressed in cargo pants are also thrown in the mix.
To celebrate today, grab you camcorder and start recording! You might be a professional who enjoys shooting wildlife (with your lens not a gun!) or an extreme sports fan who attaches the GoPro to their helmet before jumping out of a plane. Or, maybe you just like recording memories that can be cherished forever – from weddings and birthdays, to your son dancing like an Egyptian to the end credits of The Addams Family movie.
So get out there and get filming, then upload it to YouTube or Vimeo and share it with the rest of the planet!
