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

Wow those girls on Facebook don’t stand a chance eh?

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.

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.

Powerful motivational stuff here:

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
