Embark on an exciting journey with Brandon and Michael in this long-form KZfaq video, as they unveil three innovative ways to use a GoPro for wildlife filmmaking. The adventure begins underwater, capturing the mesmerizing world of salmon, transitioning seamlessly to the unique American Dipper - the only aquatic songbird, filmed both on rocks and underwater. Next, we explore the 'walkby footage' technique, showcasing how to capture stunning shots as animals walk by the camera. Finally, delve into the world of camera traps, where the GoPro, equipped with GoPro Labs beta software, becomes a motion-sensitive tool, capable of capturing wildlife in their natural habitats. This method required larger batteries to keep the GoPros running for a week, adding to the thrill of the project. Throughout the video, Brandon and Michael discuss various accessories and share tips to maximize the potential of a GoPro in wildlife filmmaking. This video is not just a guide; it's a showcase of months of dedication and the fun behind capturing the beauty of nature through innovative technology.

Wow - this was excellent! Thanks guys for all the work you put into this and for sharing your hard earned knowledge and experience. Blown away with the quality of the audio on the GP. The Moose vocalizations, for example, were amazing and really added another angle to the scene. Also loved the Dipper sequences.

It's a great option when you don't want to leave an expensive camera in the woods. Thanks for watching!

Been waiting for this one -thanks for your hard work in putting it together. One thing I appreciate about the set it and forget it style of filming is the way you get more candid footage, shots with only half a head or half a body, animals coming in and going out of the frame. To me, the walk by stuff feels very natural and interesting -but, of course, it always makes me want more :)

@TruthLegend 5 ай бұрын

Yeah we're always trying to get natural looking footage and the animal always knows we're there when we are doing long lens stuff, even further away.

I have a camera trap question😊 I have my hero 8 set up with the firmware and I’m playing with the app. Seems to be working but the back display stays on. Is that normal. I think I have it switched off in the app settings.

@TruthLegend 6 ай бұрын

There should be an auto off setting in the preferences that should control that. I can’t remember what we used but the screens would shut off. Here’s a full list of explanation. Check the options section: gopro.github.io/labs/control/settings/
