Thank you.
My kind of videos thrive off of audio. Lately they've been snorkeling, paddleboarding, kayaking and hiking videos. I've done a couple events for my unit as well, obstacle course, shooting range, gas chamber and with the COVID teleworking I've been filming some training videos. I"m not claiming to be anything more than an amateur, if that, but now I've been tasked to film our Best Warrior Competition next month, which has some key events and they want a video production and our team that usually does this stuff does not have a video person, only a still picture. I'm going to be doing some underwater stuff, obstacle course, rifle range, ruck march and a few other things, already have a million ideas in my head driving me nuts watching others videos and trying to decide on a shot list, 3D printed a cable trolley and playing with that for a gopro so I can do an overhead shot of the range and the ruck march. My money makers are my GoPros, I have several(3, 3+, 3X 4, 5, 7, fusuion) as well as some cheaper ones. Got a decent DSLR 1080p/30fps with multiple lenses, couple older camcorders that do 1080 and old DVC for night vision shots and a few drones, which I can't really fly for most of it because we are on a military base. I do everything on PowerDirector and have an audio recorder as well. RIght now I do 3-5 minute videos and hope to get better. This site focuses on movie making it seems, as most of them do, but I can learn more about shots as I go, like establishing shots and angles. Luckily I'm one of the patient ones who reads a lot before I ask a question, I'm just glad this is an active site, there are a few amazing sites I've found but all the info is outdated and no one posts anymore, found this one through reddit and read up on some of it, apparently I signed up for it months ago, but never posted and found it again today.
