Carl Svanfelt Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Hi, Here is a useful video that I found to have a good practical value when editing Insta360 footage with Premiere Pro: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seage Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 This is not a full put together video at all. Just figured id drop it and share some thoughts. Got the gopro hero7 black yesterday and decided to take it for a spin today. Ive never owned an action cam and normally shoot on my chunky DSLR, so this was totally new to me, and i was stupid as hell, haha. First, i didnt realize you could change from 4:3 to 16:9. I was mad that it was in 4:3 but figured id just learn to live with it. What.... I shot too small. I used 1440, and placed it on a 1080 timeline. Then i stabilized it in adobe premiere, which I also messed up...... What this did was crop in the footage. And then i had to crop in even more to lose the crazy wild edges. This destroyed the quality of the footage and made it kinda choppy and compressed in some areas. Id advise anyone with a brain to use 2.7k or go the full 4k if you have a memory card (and a computer) that can handle it. Using larger footage and making it smaller gives you some cool options. Like panning and artificial zooms without any loss of quality. But you might have to proxy (edit with smaller image files so your computer can handle it, then render out with the original huge files with all the edits on them) in order to not blow your computer up if you're using an old machine. On the up side though, i finally got to channel my inner tishawn with my superman pose as i was getting low to the ground with one hand back for counter balance while filming. I probably looked like an idiot, which isnt actually like tishawn, but i FELT cool, and thats all that matters, lmfao. Oh, one last thing. Someone mentioned it in here before, but for color editing, im using Davinci Resolve. Its free, and its...probably the best software out there for color editing. Its just stupidly good. Wait until i get some non-scuffed footage to work with and i'll show you! Oh and one more last thing, livestreaming on this thing actually works super well! Im a twitch streamer and this was a great option as opposed to the $3000 gunrunner backpack that costs like $300/m to upkeep. Anyways, hope some of my rambling helped some of you guys learn from my mistakes XD. And i apologize to those of you who already know this stuff and want me to shutup. Heres my video: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you had HyperSmooth turned on, the in camera stabilization would be easily able to handle a ride like that (and a lot more). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i used the wrong settings, haha. Hypersmooth did a really good job, but because of most of my own mistakes, i messed it all up. But i'll do better! This was day 1 of ever using a gopro XD. I usually do locked shots with no motion. Gotta get them hours in and keep trying things out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pro tip: zooming also improves the HyperSmooth stabilization, as it has more range available. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you find that its still pretty crisp? Im gonna play with that in the day too! That exciting to know. I love learning about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, zooming does diminish quality in the sense the resolution, but the degrees of stabilization increases. If you shoot 2.7k or 4k and zoom, it should stay pretty sharp (the zoom range is limited), but of course there's a drop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do a great job of demonstrating the capabilities of the V8 for sightseeing purposes. I am looking forward to the 16X as well. If it doesn't have bugs like my V8 doesn't seem to have bugs that'll probably be my next wheel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pico Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) Great @tessa25 you are doing fine at this point. Right now your head position is not helping you. Specially on a V5F. Your head should stay steady like the fellow below. Your inner ears and brain cannot react accurately enough because you are changing too often their reference. Cheers!

Thanks for the tip! I'm not sure where to look when doing figure 8's. All I know is figure 8's make me nauseous. Have to do S turns instead.

All I know is figure 8's make me nauseous. Have to do S turns instead. It's more about dipping your head from time to time. Like most people at this stage they do it instinctively to check if everything is ok, is their feet is properly placed, or to see where they are going... check 1.14 and 2.07. Don't worry, it's better at this time to make wider steady turns, this will alleviate the nauseous part. The nauseousness is actually caused by the bobbing head. For each rate of turn there is a place to look at. Your brain will figure it out once your head is steady. All in all, you are doing quite fine. The V5F is NOT an easy wheel!

seage Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 More practice with that gopro. Fixed a lot of stuff. Need to get used to DaVinci. I did some color shifts, but they were abrupt and jarring, so im gonna look up how to ramp up to shifts. Would have done that earlier but I was editing while on the phone, lol. Also, for some reason noise that isnt there in the final render on my PC is there in the video on youtube. Maybe some of the settings messed up the compression? I need to look into this, haha. Ah well! Still happy with this! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
