Eclipse Megamovie

For anyone traveling to the US for the August 21 eclipse, the Eclipse Megamovie Project is looking to get photographs to build a movie of images from coast to coast. They need skilled photographers to help create the movie as well as support solar science. UC Berkeley’s press release has good background information on what they are hoping to accomplish: http://news.berkeley.edu/2017/02/21/...solar-eclipse/
Their goal is to recruit over 1,000 amateur photographers and astronomers who will be on the path of totality on August 21, 2017. Their website has information and a link to the application to participate: https://eclipsemega.movie

Basic equipment necessary for participating in the Eclipse Megamovie Project
Camera: DSLR (digital single lens reflex)
Telephoto or zoom lens: minimum focal length of 300mm
A stable and level tripod
Ability to identify the GPS coordinates and time to the nearest second
