2.1.2  Initialize the Recording

Before launching the vehicle, record a short video clip of the location and crew. This can be stored with the project and used like a movie clapper to provide quick reference information about the operation. You only need to record a few seconds or you can allow the recording to continue to run. If you want, you can create a movie clapper and use it as well. Experience has shown that most underwater video footage looks similar and when viewed later, it is hard to determine which operation it was from the video alone.
