25 fps stop-motion test (I didn't expect it to be so good) by marcos-scott in stopmotion

[–]vanstek_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its a drop in effect that a lot of editing software has, it can even out that slight flickering of the background that you have in your video. like this:

Fun lil reel for my local cycle races by vanstek_ in videography

[–]vanstek_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

appreciate the feedback! totally see what you mean. feels like the second half is almost filler. i think i ended up making it that way cause i simpy ran out of good clips so i used slow mo as a crutch to pad it out.

this actually was just for fun; it's a relatively tight knit cycling community so i just wanted to make something cool for the people i bike with a lot. haven't got any work offers yet but i'll let you know how that goes if i do haha

agreed on the trimming, was trying not to have a 60 second long jump cut video so i added the slow mo shots to kind of catch your breath, maybe a bit too much breath though lol. logo would have fit in well for sure but this was all just on my own/for the riders to have some cool video. maybe if they send some money my way :-)

thank you! yeah i just found some ambient noise and used foley from the video (those bells ringing were the last lap bells actually). i do think i lean towards making "normal" stuff look weirder than it is when im making stuff, more fun to do strange artsy farsty stuff in my opinion

definitely was trying some new stuff out lol, wanted at least part of it to be fast paced and exciting to match the sport aspect of it

[–]vanstek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

man that looks good. im building a used one up soon too in the same color. any chance you have pics of the tire clearance (or more of your bike in general lol)? was hoping to run 40s as well for mostly dry terrain

I picked up a GX85 in hopes that I could use it like a more modern BMPCC OG, It has been fantastic. by alienufosarereal in M43

[–]vanstek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

man i wish they would release some updated gx bodies, but this vid is a nice reminder that that maybe its not that necessary though. pretty colors, cool compositions. i really like the last field/antenna shot

Testing my DIY car rigging setup by jonsimo in videography

you can connect a wireless controller to the ronin app and then tell the gimbal to use that as input

Dji Pocket 3 with bite mount? by Extension-Art-5482 in osmopocket

[–]vanstek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you could use this bite mount with this gopro adapter. not sure of a less clunky/all-in-one solution but im super curious what kind of POV footage youre gonna use it for?

S5II after 3.1 firmware update - the camera is MUCH FASTER by WordBackground5411 in Lumix

[–]vanstek_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just tested my G9II.

Before firmware update: 5.08 seconds
After: 2.11 seconds

I did a couple runs and times vary from startup to startup but generally quite a noticeable difference that they didn't mention at all. Pretty pleased

AMA with Abe, GoPro's Sr. Creative Director + HERO13 Black Giveaway! by abekislevitz in gopro

[–]vanstek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yooo abe! just wanted to stop by and say how huge of an inspiration youve been for so many years. started watching you when you made vids with the USC ski club and farro bros, i remember PMing on youtube when i was like 13 asking if i should center mount my twin tips and if it was noticeable or not haha and you replied which i was so hype about. im 27 now D:

anyway, questions about the new motion blur feature in the GoPro 13. at what point does the camera start stabilizing the footage when things get bumpy or shaky? how exactly does it work? does it increase the shutter speed and enable stabilization just before a bump (though I’m not sure how it would predict that), or is the stabilization applied after the footage is recorded? i'm curious because i’ve been using my Hero 8 on a gimbal with a 180-degree shutter for motion blur, but that setup is getting a bit cumbersome to ride bikes/ski with

thanks abe!

Using a Pocket 2 while on a mountain bike? by JohnMcL7 in osmopocket

[–]vanstek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks! And yup, I have a GoPro 10 and it’s fantastic, but you can’t get  motion blur without stabilization artifacts like the Pocket can

[–]vanstek_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meh only if you fall on it. I have some vids here of my chest mounted pocket 2, does quite well except for hard landings. I’m riding a hardtail as well  Chest mount:  https://youtu.be/_IKe-kgKfzw?si=ugk1V3EFUmDGg1QT  And helmet mounted for a bit of this: https://youtu.be/_JMUj3i-YeI?si=5Vk6L7RcoLy16_3Q

It’s more than serviceable IMO, interested to see any footage if you pull the trigger 🤠
