This video I'm going to give you some ideas and tips for filming amazing video from moving vehicles. Now some countries you may have harder access to these vehicles, certainly in Asia, there's a lot more of these vehicles around. So I mean it's gonna be smooth video filming from most vehicles with this setup but certain vehicles are going to be a lot easier. So filming from a car is the first one it's a lot safer, but you don't have as much open air so you know the best you can do is roll down both Windows and you have to take the risk of not wearing your seatbelt if you want to move from the right side to the left sides. I like to film in slow motion. That means that allows you to get the most more out of your footage because As it is slower now I remember filming handheld with this Panasonic GH five at filming at 4k 60 frames per second.
And that was pretty decent. But on the DJI Ronin, that footage becomes a bit smoother. You can also film from a motorbike and having tried that, I would say to be very careful because there is the possibility that you are going to be weaving in between cars and people and you can really hurt someone if you hits hit someone with this you can also damage your camera so certainly do that at your own risk. Now, a vehicle that I like to film in that gives you a lot more open space but it's a bit safer is something from a tooktook. So these are Available in Thailand, and some parts of Asia. So they have a lot of a lot more open room.
And they're fairly safe, but you still get the benefit of a move moving vehicle. The equivalent in North America would be a golf carts. I know they're not available to everyone, but there's some ideas for you. You could even do it from a skateboard or a scooter. But just be careful when you do these things. a pickup truck is good because you can film from the back.
Now, another tip when filming from any of these vehicles is to use a lens with a higher aperture or use a higher aperture if you use something like f 1.4. It's going to be harder to keep your subjects in focus while you're moving, do something like f4 so it's easier to keep your subjects in focus. And keep the camera balance, make sure that it's horizontal. I like to put on the green horizontal line to make sure that everything's lined up. And if your camera hasn't used peeking, which tells you that you're still got your subjects in focus, because it can be a little bit hard when the cameras when the vehicles moving to, you know, keep your eyes on things. So by having peeking on, it's a bit easier to see you're in focus.
So yeah, hold it still horizontally, use slow motion, and use peaking on your camera and have some fun, try different things film from the back from film from the side. And you can also film from the driver's perspective, the point of view, filming from the car, you can sit in the middle. And yeah, just zoom in. So you just capture the view out of the windshield tub those tips help you for filming from a moving vehicle.
