I've videotaped 2 hunts this year so far and we got birds on both. I've been the cameraman and try to position myself off the right shoulder of the hunter (right handed shooter). Sometimes the setup won't allow this so you make due.
One of my buddies videos for himself all the time. He uses a popup blind and a tripod and gets some really good video.
Here is a link to one of his self-videoed hunts:

It can be done, you just have to set yourself up right.
Good luck.
