This was filmed on soloshot 3 with extra wide angle 1080/60.
Just in early stages of getting this right, I didn't do any stablisation and there is some noticeable shake at greater distance. I didn't have have Tripod set low or weighted it was blowing 25-30 knots and the camera was in pretty high wind exposed position, so I think there is scope to improve this with minimal prep. Also it was a pretty busy day so I had camera a long way back on the beach to keep it out of the way.
This day wanted to get kite in shot but I will test wide and medium to get more rider detail at other times. Hopefully they will create update to alter zoom from the tag in the future.
Sorry about the music, I haven't done a lot of research on video and audio editing (possibly zero) so hopefully I will improve that with future vids.
Also Im only a beginner so don't be too harsh on the rider but not adverse to constructive tips, slight disclaimer it was quite bumpy in there so I wasn't getting great edging into my jumps and backrolls is something im only just starting to do. Once I get that nailed I get my instructors ticket, think that's how it works! just kidding some may know the link there
Hoping others will chime in with their vid techniques and editing tricks, doesn't have to be Soloshot but pls state your vid basic specs to help us learn.
You guys must live in scum holes. I set my gopro on the water's edge in prime position. Nobody steals it. Nobody complains. People around here are just cool.
That's not funny, some of the dumbest sh!t I've ever seen right there....
why would u jump over a downed kite like that??
u can see it powering up before he has even landed....
Yes agree was stupid and I was lucky. I had already committed to do a jump.
I new he was upwind of me and had no idea his kite was about to crash in front of me.
Latest edition, still getting shake on long zoom but to be fair it is quite a distance. I put on sand bag on tripod in a video i had done after this but camera didnt track well for some reason. But shake seemed considerably deminished.
hope provides a bit of insight to the potential.
Hi, I havent loaded any footage for a while, but first a bit more info on the camera. It is software updateable and recent changes have improved the results Im getting. The stabilisation has been improved and I say is still not perfect but can say on some of longer distance zooms in the video the stability is notably better than the earlier video's Ive posted. Some of the updates have been 2 steps back to move half a set forward but the last two updates have been very good in improving zoom, focus and stability. Hopefully its all forward from here!
The video I attach is three camera angles with two of those from gopro type camera Thieye, I think it will be clear to viewer which is which
still working my edit quality but I think this is my best effort yet in terms of video flow, sorry its a bit long and have gone drop box so I can put some music I like in.
If anyone has good site to get music for youtube video's pls pass on.
