It seems counter intuitive to use a crane, to build a crane, why not just use the first crane ?

They seemed rather keen to read a printed speech and leave, both as quickly as possible. Text to speech software could have done the same job. There were only a few moments when they seemed interested in the words they were reading from a script.

That's higher than the highest mountain here in the UK by a few feet

I don't even wanna know what this camera setup cost. This video quality is on a whole new level :eek:

Not sure how 3 x 8k = 12k but okay

It literally explains how it is 12k in the link you provided.

Stitching camera arrays is sort of a technical art form as you battle all sorts of things related to camera position and optics. But there's a lot of power behind having this much captured resolution and detail. Above is the general workflow I ran through. Selecting a take and extracting Left, Middle, and Right cameras angles I experimented with a few different ways to stitch the motion, but I always targeted a Equirectangular Projection first and chose to change the projection to rectilinear (like a normal spherical lens) and crop into a standard DCI 1.9:1 Aspect Ratio. In this case the format would be considered DCI 12K.

I don't find it a suitable explanation

Well, that’s your own problem entirely.

No it isn’t, not even close.

Yes it is, by elevation

Nope... please do quote figures if you think otherwise. The highest mountain in the UK is over 4000 ft, a hill becomes a mountain at just under 2000ft, your youtube video description mentions some tower just under 2000 ft.

It's wikipedia being misleading where it says highest point Elevation over 600 m (1,969 ft) under a picture of Ben Nevis
