Gopro Tips

Hey guys and gals, Everyone has a Gopro because, well let's face it, they kick ass. The camera is a pretty amazing tool. Being so small and powerful it let's you capture all those amazing moments. I have made some really fun movies for clients over the years. Check out my friend Nadia's YouTube for inspiration http://youtu.be/OgddPfb28do Here are some pro tips I use to guide me. 1)  Shoot Short Shots: A shot is like a sentence—it has a noun and a verb.  Together the noun and verb are what keep the “move” in “movies.” On your backpacking trip a random video clip of “Bob” is not a shot.  “Bob picks up his pack” is a shot.  “Bob hikes down the trail” is a shot.  To keep your shots short, stop shooting when the action is complete.  “Bob hikes down the trail” is interesting for about 5 seconds unless Bob falls off a cliff.  So once you’ve got the action covered, be done.  We don’t need to see Bob’s back for another 30 seconds as he heads off into the distance.
