m I the only one with 500GB of cricket match footage that literally NO ONE will ever watch?
Hey guys,
Need some sanity check here. My team has been recording our weekend turf matches for the last six months. We’ve got a GoPro setup behind the stumps and some phone footage from the sidelines.
The problem? I currently have about 60 hours of raw footage sitting on a Google Drive. It’s a graveyard of data.
I hit a pretty sweet cover drive last Sunday and wanted to post it, but the thought of scrubbing through a 3-hour video file just to find those 10 seconds of glory made me give up immediately. I feel like we’re recording "the memories," but since the footage is so long and boring to edit, we never actually look at them again.
I’ve actually started developing a small project to see if I can solve this for myself (the goal is to just send a link and get back the wickets/best balls as reels), but I’m honestly wondering if this is a real problem for others too.
Does this happen to anyone else?
- For those who record their matches—do you ever actually watch the full thing back?
- How the hell do you find your "best moments" without spending hours in an editor?
- Or are most of you just not recording at all because it's a massive hassle?
I honestly feel like I’m sitting on a goldmine of clips that will never see the light of day.
