Watch live streaming of Dominica carnival free!

Dominica News Online today continues its efforts to stream live carnival activities on the streets of Roseau. Coverage will include the parade of costume bands in the morning and street jump-up in the afternoon.

DNO is making this effort despite limited resources and at some cost, to bring the activities to loyal readers and to all who are not able to see the Carnival Tuesday spectacle first hand but would like to watch.

    Thank you so very much DNO and Comesee Tv for giving us the opportunity to be part of the Carnival festivities while being away from home. I greatly appreciated it. Is there room for improvement in the broadcasting and filming? yes there is, but it was a pleasure all the same. Thank you.

    I feel privelaged to be able to receive DA in my living room all the way in London. I am a regular visitor to DA during carnival, but this year I will be present a the Creole festival.

    I must congratulate you guys on the good work that you put into making the live streaming possible.

    I am pleased that carnival this year seems to have gone relatively trouble free. Well done to young and old.

    I look forward to next year carnival. Happy Vaval

Guys this was “FREE!” KUDOS to the new management for bringing this to us on their limited resources. Please embrace the moment and give praises to DNO for being “TRUE DOMINICANS”. Remember our people are a loving, giving kind and DNO gave back to us unconditionally, two days in a row. Sah zor vleh accor..what all you want again! Merci DNO! :-P

    Ahhh!!! Such childish tantrums from you people.

    And for those who are wining about having “supported” DNO by paying for the Carnival shows, I’ve got news for you.

    The producers of the shows are the ones who charged. Were it up to DNO it would probably have been free.

    We DA people need to lighten up. Gosh!!

    ADMIN: Based on the comments we’ve received so far, readers/viewers have noticed some improvement in the quality of DNO’s live stream today compared to yesterday. We did make an effort, at some extra cost and it appears to have borne fruit. We wish to thank those who have given positive and constructive feed back. We’re encouraged by those responses. We hope that shortcomings not withstanding, our coverage this afternoon will continue to be satisfactory. We know there’s much room for improvement but our view is that half a loaf is better than nothing. Thank you for joining us every one and we hope you can have an enjoyable taste of carnival through the eyes of DNO!

        Next year. And here is a lil tip.. If you guys promise to have a better location and maybe have some lights to light up the streets while streaming..put a donation paypal link as sponsorship to streaming. Put the base limit something reasonable like maybe USD$1 and up and I bet you by time next year y’all should have enough to add with the other sponsors to take care o the camera man and technicians involved along with the streaming bill. Just a though. Maybe even a host and maybe footcams.. Just thinking out loud.. Thanx guys

    February 20, 2012

    Hi just to say thanks for ‘ trying a ting’ for us away from home but the camera man does not seem to be watching through his monitor. If he was he would see that he is spending a lot of time on distance unfocused shots. He/she is panning too fast and there are not enough close ups of groups.

    He/she should be telling a story through the lens.
    I should be feeling ‘the vibe’ not just watching ‘de road’ through blured out of focus shots.

    People up on the balcony with camera person should have more sense than to stand in front of the camera whilst it is obviously on a tripod.

    Surely if you are taking on the job, it should be your best effort.

    P.S
    Don’t get me wrong, I love just being able to see Carnival live I am extremely grateful. I just know that it would not take much to make watching a engaging experience!

    LOVE DOMINICA TO THE BONE!
    HAVE A SAFE AND ENJOYABLE CARNIVAL.
