GoPro: Secrets of the Follow-Cam | Spencer Whiting aka Gimbal God

[@FunDudes.]

Love that the cameras are so good, that he doesn’t need a Gimbal anymore 😂

[@JakeRichandAnnaChah]

4:3 issa vibe! I'm going to play around with more of it. What a tutorial cheers Gimbal God

[@snowvantures]

His shots are amazing. I think this is due to his passion for filming and to the fact that he is a professional snowboarder and he can keep up with the other pros. He is doing so much for GoPro and for snowboarding in general.

[@stophumpingthelaser]

His work on Sunset Snowboarding with Haldor, Kotsenburg and Sven Thorgren is unreal. Those who know know 🙌

[@dont4get2wipe]

Spencer is such a G, love everything he’s done

Gimbal God doesn’t need a gimbal

[@Dan-Black]

I always wonder about the people behind the camera on some of those really great videos. This is a really cool video on one of them; I hope to see more like this!

[@BroSender]

I'm Seriously ready to switch from my old HERO 5 to the HERO 10, I REALLY need that stabilization for my mountain biking! :)

Thanks for a video! Really usefull! At what frame rate you expoerting your videos? Ok, understood you are shooting 60fps or 120/240fps for slow motion, but what is export setting? 24 or 30 fps?

[@ElProfeMoto]

He slows down the footage about 50%, or at least that’s what I used to do for slo-mo

[@KING-ko9ls]

can you use ND Lens with the underwater case?

[@thinkfamilyvacation]

[@Blackirish__]

Thanks,,,how does he avoid the ND filter stuffing up the hyper smooth ? Is the image stabilisation done in post edit?

[@GoPro]

No post production image stabilization here, just HyperSmooth. Spenny generally runs ND8's or, if it's really bright, ND16's. They key is to not over-do it with ND filters-it doesn't take much to achieve the perfect amount of motion blur.

[@Blackirish__]

@@GoPro yes I agree I have good good results with the ND8 in the past

[@steviemacchia8623]

What Microphone setup is that?

[@sergey_churnosov]

[@32srt32]

he didnt mention the 360 on his head!

[@andreaturbolz3542]

I need help to understand. In many GoPro forums I’ve learn that you can’t achieve stabilisation if you use ND filters. Problem is the shutter speed. But the “gimbal guy”, in this video, is using Polar Pro ND filters to achieve motion blur (so I understand). So I suppose He apply the 180^ rule. But stabilisation is working. Don’t understand . Someone can please help?

[@jncampora]

I've seen him having issues with stabilization and the nd filters since the hero 9, and i remember (not sure tho) that he was using more the nd 8 rather than the higher ones he used to use. Also, he uses real steady, so probably he's turning stabilization on camera off, in that case you could get away with using those filters and then stabilizing in post.

[@andreaturbolz3542]

@@jncampora really tanks. I also think he stabilize in post. Maybe with the last Gopro and real steady update is possible have all. Nd filters hypersmooth and Realsteady stabilisation

[@jncampora]

@@andreaturbolz3542 exactly, I'm really looking forward to try it myself too. And glad it helped 😅👊🏼

[@sebastiand1]

probably he is using no stabilization and then he used real steady in post edit!

Why is he the Gimbal God if he doesnt use a gimbal? Me thinks he doesnt really usually use a gopro but an actual large sensor camera.

[@guntechx]

because he is been using gopro for ages, and very well known in snowboard scene. and in the old days before gopro hypersmooth he using all sorts of gimbal to get his shots, he got his god name because he is really good at follow cam on snowboarding, not a lot ppl as good as him, and its not as easy as it looks to follow high speed pro snowboarder, he can even follow the guys at the big air etc..

[@OliniMedia]

Follow him on Instagram, or look at stale’s KZbin channel. He shows everything he uses. He shoots with GoPro and has for a long time but will use larger cameras like the red komodo as well.

[@kylehardy7519]

@@guntechx He's definitely a really talented guy but that doesn't change the fact that the name is stupid if he doesn't use a gimbal. There are actual gimbal gods out there look at Ari Robbins for instance. FPV drones have taken the follow cam position anyway so who really cares about selfie sticks ads anymore. Good day sir.

[@Dluiogbre]

@@kylehardy7519 he used to use gimbals. He was known as gimbalgod when he was using them. Now he doesn’t need a gimbal. He isn’t going to just change the name people know him by just to appease people. His entire identity created from his life’s work is behind that name, as that’s what people recognize him as.
