GoPro Hero - Know Anything About Using It?
Jan 26, 2012 13:10:52 #
Hi, I'm in a competition next month that involves making a short film with the 3D GoPro. Cameras are supplied, and there is some training involved before the competition begins. I've been researching it extensively, but I was wondering if anyone had experience using this camera who would share info about the it from a hands on perspective. What is handy to know about it that may not be apparent from reading? Just trying to get a jump in the completion, cause I want to win this thing! :)So Thanks.

I got one for my son for his birthday, but it hasn't been used yet. I would suggest a search on the web. I know there are lots of Hero videos, and I'm betting there is instruction, too.
Let us know how it turns out.

Hey Jerry, thanks for the input. I have been researching extensively online. Definately feeling like I know what needs to be done, even though I've never touched the equipment (nerve wracking!). Just thought I'd see if I could uncover any "insider tips" so to speak. Best of luck to your kid and his new camera! :) If I learn any tips, after the competition, I'll post them.

Wow! This post is from a long time ago. Thanks for the offer of help, Jean, but I got the info I needed. :) We won the competition and were awarded two GoPros with a 3D Hero rig.

why don't you post the winning entry? Would be fun. I have a gopro I rarely use. That is for very active people.

Sure. The challenge was to make a 90 second, silent, 3D film in 48 hours with equipment that most participants had never seen before. Our story gets a bit lost in this flick, I admit it. :) 90 seconds is short. Our priority was on making the best use we could of the 3D, and to create a visual spectacle, cause that's what wins. We won the GoPro 3D setup. Unfortunately, we haven't shot 3D since, but we've used the GoPros a lot.
3D version requires glasses. YouTube's player will let you set it to the type of glasses you've got. If you don't have 3D glasses, watch the 2D version.
