Worn-out floor gets fresh coat of paint-TIMELAPSE

This is part II of the renovation of the little vintage RV trailer that came as part of the deal with a cute cottage on a lake purchased in Quebec, Canada. The hope is that it will be an attractive adjunct to the cabin, which will be offered as an AirBnb stayover in a beautiful wooded lake setting.

In the first time-lapse video, we saw the walls and ceilings get a fresh coat of paint. Now it’s time to paint the floor to prepare the surface for the adhesive flooring that will be installed next.

I set up three cameras to record this time-lapse, but my iPhone fell over on the shelf I had it propped up on, so we’re now getting two different angles. My Canon 80D, on another shelf, gave me the first sequence, and the second is from my GoPro, which was attached to a skylight for the panoramic overhead shot.
When the job was all finished, I realized all my cameras were trapped inside, with all approaches covered in wet paint! It was a head-scratcher, but I came up with some solutions.

Climbing onto the trailer’s tow hitch, I lifted open one of the hinged windows, reached around and grabbed both my iPhone and my 80D with minimal contortion needed.

But how to reach my GoPro, which was still on the ceiling? This called for a more creative solution. First, I placed a bucket of water at the entrance to the RV. Barefoot, I picked up a loaded paint roller and carrying it, I made my way slowly (squish, squish) across the freshly painted wet floor, to the center. I retrieved my GoPro with one hand and slowly walked backwards to the door, erasing my footprints with the roller. Mission accomplished and I left no trace!

Oh, and the bucket of water was handy for removing most the paint from my feet, and the rest came off when I jumped into the lake for a celebratory swim.
