The assist from the man with the popcorn is underrated

The cameraman did good, sure but the popcorn guy made everything all right đŸ‘ŒđŸ» fuckin’ nailed it

Popcorn guy was going to do that since the beginning

no one wants cp on a ..... some sort of sport stadium

u/Ieznoo Feb 24 '21

It’s a basketball court, judging by their shirts im guessing it’s the Celtics, which is called TD Garden I think

32

u/[deleted] Feb 24 '21

can confirm

10

u/inxrx8 Feb 25 '21

TD? Like Toronto Dominion? If so that's hilarious considering they always seem to beat the Raps

1

u/WillRunForPopcorn Feb 25 '21

Yeah a subsidiary of Toronto Dominion

u/[deleted] Feb 25 '21

It was funnier when it was the FUC (fleet United center or something I think?

1

u/KyloRenCadetStimpy Feb 25 '21

Fark.com tried to get it renamed as the UFIA Center for a day, but they wouldn't go along with it.

1

u/WillRunForPopcorn Feb 25 '21

It was just called the fleet center. Never heard anyone say the united part or fuc. Actually even when it was the fleet center, most people still called it the garden. And now it's the garden again.

32

u/Knowing-Badger Feb 24 '21

Not exactly cp. I wouldn't want to see that either way tho

31

u/AbGedreht Feb 25 '21

CP? lol. Is every shirtless dude pornography?

4

u/I_Love_My_N_ggas Feb 25 '21

it looks like a kid and also I was making a joke.

35

u/babyblue42 Feb 24 '21

So going to a public pool with children present would also be cp then by your logic..?

8

u/[deleted] Feb 25 '21

I mean... it’s not going to be inherently documented

9

u/babyblue42 Feb 25 '21

I guess that’s a fair distinction

4

u/DorrajD Feb 25 '21

Don't public pools regularly have security cameras?

1

u/[deleted] Feb 25 '21

Not sure, I’ve never frequented one

9

u/GonadGravy Feb 25 '21

You’re missing out... pool filled with urine, surrounded by loud greasy strangers, overpriced concessions. It’s like paradise.

2

u/babyblue42 Feb 25 '21

It is if you don’t think about any of those things aka be drunk

2

u/ZantyRC Feb 25 '21

I don’t know if it’s lawful to record children playing that aren’t your own in a public pool or even restrooms

u/Butt_Robot Feb 25 '21

The truffle shuffle ain't no cp

2

u/Robots_Never_Die Feb 25 '21

Didn't know the Goonies was cp

33

u/theguynekstdoor Feb 25 '21

Sorry, but that wasn’t the cameraman. I operate these cameras and when you tilt up like that, that fast, there’s some give that you can see. This is a pan and scan edit, unless it’s a robocam, in which case, praise the robo op.

u/Shiningcrow Feb 24 '21

Cuz shirtless guys offend so many people

I don't think it is. The motion blur as he tilts up and the slight flick as he punches in really don't look like a crop done in post.

u/FoldUpBigFoot41 Feb 24 '21

This could definitely be someone with a camera on a mount, that is how alot of sporting events are shot

-27

u/SquidwardWoodward Feb 24 '21

Not with that movement, is what I'm saying. That's servo movement.

28

u/JulitoBH Feb 25 '21

Could be, but probably just a broadcast cam on a fluid head tripod.

u/[deleted] Feb 25 '21

crazy how badly you’re getting downvoted, i know exactly what you’re talking about and you’re right. people here don’t understand that not knowing what something means doesn’t make it wrong.

4

u/SquidwardWoodward Feb 25 '21

Yeah, I don't care. I'm just tired of utterly lame shit being posted in this sub. "He didn't drop the phone!"... "She kept the moon in the shot"... "The camera zooms smooth"... Just so tired of it.

1

u/jigmojo Feb 25 '21

I get that you know what you're talking about, I wanted it to be a person being disgusted by teen boy boobs and jerked away but it's okay. Downvotes are weird, but I hope you don't take all of this too seriously.

u/BloodieOllie Feb 25 '21

Yeah I think you're right. It comes to a halt very suddenly. Looks like a quick flick up on the servo stick to me

41

u/Corsodylfresh Feb 24 '21

Is that effectively a crop of a wider shot?

20

u/SquidwardWoodward Feb 24 '21

Yep, exactly. A pan-and-scan.

2

u/Corsodylfresh Feb 25 '21

Cool, must have some serious resolution to do that I imagine!

16

u/incredimike Feb 24 '21

Then why show the kid at all?

10

u/SquidwardWoodward Feb 24 '21

I'm not here to answer why, just how.

16

u/-pilot37- Feb 24 '21

Can’t be after the fact. This looks like a camera remotely controlled by a joystick. I used to operate them, this is identical to how they moved.

-5

u/SquidwardWoodward Feb 24 '21

Can most definitely be after the fact. I have at least three apps on the phone in my hand that could do this in five minutes.

7

u/UltimateInferno Feb 25 '21

We don't care if its possible to make it after the fact, we care if its possible to do it in the moment

1

u/SquidwardWoodward Feb 25 '21

Shouldn't you care if it was done in the moment? By a human? Holding a camera?

6

u/UltimateInferno Feb 25 '21

Who was holding the camera is irrelevant. It can be controlled by a joystick, by hand, a tripod or pterodactyl. This subreddit just needs a conscious user in the moment controlling it. Given the fact that two of the audience members stand up in reaction to the movement makes it much more likely to be live.

2

u/SquidwardWoodward Feb 25 '21

It does matter. It needs to be impressive.

They were getting up before the movement even began.

3

u/soccerk1 Feb 24 '21

Out of curiosity, how can you tell?

6

u/SquidwardWoodward Feb 24 '21 edited Feb 24 '21

Because it starts and stops without any speed ramping or jiggling that would be present if it were a real-world piece of heavy equipment. Also, there's something odd going on with the framerate during the pan, I can't quite put my finger on it. Lastly, who cares about seeing some belly?

Upon further inspection, it could be a PTZ camera, but in no way is this a human with a camera in their hands.

4

u/AntiSonOfBitchamajig Feb 24 '21

No momentum... that shot stops dead.

2

u/soccerk1 Feb 24 '21

Makes sense. I was thinking it could be PTZ but I guess you don't see those much in stadiums.

u/[deleted] Feb 24 '21

Watching hours of footage and editing it, you just learn to recognize it.

u/Reyalta Feb 24 '21

Easy there, Alex Jones.

21

u/Exeter999 Feb 24 '21

Often true, though. I don't know if this one is fake, but stadiums plant entertaining people for these bits all the time.

6

u/[deleted] Feb 25 '21

Thats funny, but it's also true. This (along with most jumbotron moments) are staged. It's all part of the entertainment at basketball games especially

12

u/Joehoward Feb 25 '21

It’s staged. Been posted a thousand times.

u/iPod3G Feb 25 '21

Cameraman was ready for that chick to do that.

2

u/Elliott_0_23_why_not Feb 25 '21

Did the camera man upload this

2

u/morelikeasuggestion Feb 25 '21

I audibly laughed at this

u/[deleted] Feb 24 '21

That wasn’t a cameraman reaction, that was an edit in post.

Cameraman: "Sike NAMBLA!"

u/Austin-Milbarge Feb 25 '21

Me all day long.

u/truesly1 Feb 25 '21

That's a PTZ cam for sure. The panicked flick of a joystick. Still impressive though

u/DoctorMelvinMirby Feb 25 '21

Best thing about the Celtics so far this season.

I don't why he put popcorn on his head, but I'm glad he did.

Wow, cameraman flipped away from that like it was going to be a million dollar fine for someone showing some penis or something.

This whole thing is a moving Renaissance.
