The Detour Guy is moving his flag, whenever I send the signal, from wherever I happen to be: home, work, Hackspace. The Cloud bounces the signal down to him. 

Here's what it looks like on YouTube:

Actually, that's kind of annoying: the way I have to send you all the way to YouTube, and then they try to immediately entice you to keep watching other junk. 

Let's try it as an animated GIF, hosted right here:

That's better. 

How I did it, just so I remember:

  • Shot a video on my phone.
  • Exported it from my Photos account as an .mov.

Now I had the file on my computer:

  • format: an MPEG-4 movie (.m4v file). 
  • size: 1080 × 1920
  • codecs: AAC, H.264

Then I uploaded it to: https://ezgif.com/video-to-gif.

Looks like I could have cropped it a little better beforehand. 

Next time.
