10 GoPro Cinematic Tips for Backpacking

[@GoProTips]

Hey AdventureMuse, We love your tips and sick Timelapse's!!! ✌

[@AdventureMuse]

Wow, Thanks so much! I do love my GoPro! The little camera that could!

[@JasperConway]

Instantly liked for the inclusion of the "wooww" sounds

[@AdventureMuse]

LOL thanks! I laughed when I heard that clip because I said that so much myself. It seemed fitting. BTW, I like your channel name.

[@MagellanandGreyhound]

Despite making videos, it’s so clear how little I know 😜 - the GoPro tips were super helpful. Got a 10 still in the box and need to start playing with it !

[@AdventureMuse]

I was thinking your last teaser you guys are stepping up the quality and content! Get that GoPro out of the box!! Try doing a night lapse…

[@MagellanandGreyhound]

@@AdventureMuse The funny thing is that she is a semi pro at many of these things, but has less time and tries to not have work and play be the same thing, whereas I am the beginner and am hungry to learn and improve but still know so little. Been watching lots of videos on editing cuts/filming shots lately. Hoping to start using more of them!

[@mariolavrador350]

Hi. Very nice tios, very helpful. You just got yourself a new fan. Thank you.

[@owen_oj]

Fantastic video, thanks so much for sharing! Just ordered the Hero 11 and excited to get capturing those moments when out and about

[@Lightandlovetoyou]

Thank you 🙏🏼 Also you voice is sooooo lovely !!! Gosh so nice to listen to

[@melonadegg]

Hi from 2024, very useful tips and your energy makes the video more enjoyable to watch, cheers!

[@AdventureMuse]

Thanks so much! Really appreciate your kind words😊

[@Kavika-xh1qj]

Thank you and new sub for all those positive vibes. I’m going to go ride my bicycle now! I’ve been neglecting myself and for some reason this motivated me to stop making excuses and go ride. Nature calls! Olé! Greetings from Spain.

[@AdventureMuse]

So glad I could motivate you from over here! Yes! Just get outside in that beautiful country of yours!❤️

[@MartinHJ]

Great little summary of what to do and remember on a hiking trip when documenting it. Enjoyed it! Thx fra Norway :)

[@mountaintrailventures]

Thank You so much for this video. Many needed tips!

[@Number1TravelGuru]

Just bought an 11 and am basically a Neanderthal with a chisel and rock as a hammer. I need videos like your to help me get the most and start out. The setting section is k-e-y. Thanks!!!!!

[@Tuna13]

The hiking pole clip is a great idea! Cell phones and big cameras aren't the most convenient in middle of a hike. Been travelling and hiking for years and I've always struggled with the balancing act of taking photos / footage to be able to remember my trips and being able to enjoy the moment. Thank you for this video.

[@syfamilytv]

Thanks a lot for those very helpful tips. You keep safe and have fun!

[@jazzubarcln]

Thank you soooo much! Im planning on traveling soon and i just bought my GoPro recently. This is so helpful!

[@AdventureMuse]

You bet! happy travels!

[@MS-kf5rr]

amazing information . Heading to another country and really want to go light as possible. Thank you!

[@AdventureMuse]

It’s amazing what you can do with a GoPro if you have good light

[@dwipurwantonugroho]

Simple & easy to understand...will try this on my next hiking/trail...great thanks from Indonesia 👍🏻

[@ethanzawatski1206]

Thanks for all your advice. Just picked up a Hero 9 and looking forward to documenting some backpacking trips!

[@AdventureMuse]

You bet! Have fun!

[@radiojourney3515]

Thank you for sharing great tips. I love it.

[@AdventureMuse]

So glad you found them helpful ❤️

[@ivanmejiadiaz2393]

Great video ideas for my next trip ✈️

[@conradreimer]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I would never come up with those tricks by myself. It very much helps from making boring movies like I did before. So yeah - thanks.

[@AdventureMuse]

Thanks so much for your knee md words!

[@lenashafer]

This was so informative and inspiring to watch, thank you!

[@AdventureMuse]

Thanks so much. Appreciate it

What a great video. Either I missed it or you did not mention it and for that reason, I am both liking and subscribing to your channel. thanks for the wonderful tips.

[@AdventureMuse]

Thank you so much! And so glad you found my tips useful. GoPros are AWESOME!

[@chriscampana89]

This is a great video! I just got my GoPro 10, will take it to the trail! Awesome video!

[@AdventureMuse]

Thank you! It’s such a great little camera!

[@cwTheDrummist]

This was great, Jan! The thing I struggle with the most is getting enough shots and a variety of shots... especially when I'm in a group and with the big camera.

[@AdventureMuse]

The GoPro does make it easy to capture more, and it's non-threatening. LOL Not so great for indoor and low light settings, but outside it's awesome.

[@cwTheDrummist]

@@AdventureMuse I picked up a Sony ZV-1 a few weeks ago for all the reasons you mentioned. It's tiny, always with me, and does better footage-wise than my iPhone and my GoPro in most situations. My big camera is a hassle for documenting vlog style and it freaks people out most of the time. :)

[@mohdjoharichannel]

Thanks for sharing this video. From MJC Malaysia.

[@kdaadventures8616]

Such a helpful video. I love my hero 9. Such a good camera.

[@danieldinh9911]

[@AdventureMuse]

Thanks so much, and for the encouragement.

[@RolandKaufmann]

Tons of great advice. I just picked up a second GoPro to use in my videos.. and on my last one, I actually took a stab at color correction. I feel like I'm getting the hang of this, but I know I have tons more to learn. Thanks Subscribed. - Joe

[@AdventureMuse]

Thanks so much!

[@haribioscope]

Nice 👍 Which best setting GoPro Hero 11

[@kenstrampe7609]

I will never get such good shots as you do but i will keep on trying. Yes do a video on editing i have so much trouble editing my videos. By the time im done i am not happy with it at all. I just need someone to sit down with me and show me how its done and walk me through it step by step till i get it right. I love your videos. I have been with you from the start and even your first videos are better than mine and you get better and better as you go. Keep up the good work and im just going to keep enjoying it. Have a great day.

[@AdventureMuse]

Thanks Ken. You absolutely can. And as you probably saw how my old videos I was so awkward and not as good with filming or edits. It's practice and time. Thanks for watching and commenting. : )

[@bunkertons]

Loooool! The beginning was hilarious.

[@AdventureMuse]

Thanks😅

[@BadSloucher]

I smiled the whole way through watching this. Not only did I feel the joy you had recording each memory, you shared some really good tips to get diverse shots. I have the GoPro Hero 8 and loved that you mentioned stuff for it too. Please keep making more videos like this. I need the validation to go all in with GoPro and leave the big mirrorless camera and lenses to more specialized occasions. I just want to hike and go lightweight!

[@AdventureMuse]

And Thank you so much! Really appreciate your comment. The hero 8 is great and you can make epic videos with it.

[@marcuscadman6637]

Good stuff! So many helpful insights! 😄

[@Katy-Did]

Thanks for your video!

[@dancer1]

You ever use super wide

[@AdventureMuse]

Sometimes, but I don't love the distortion. You can edit it out in post, but wide is usually good enough for me.

[@cchhugani]

You are good. Thanks for the tips.

[@bradtremblay2111]

Thanks for all these tips! Looking to use my GoPro more on my hiking and canoe trips! DSLr is so heavy...ugh. Didn't know there was a mouthy mount! LOL.

[@AdventureMuse]

I used the Mouthy all the time, especially in the water, surfing and paddleboarding. It's so handy. I do love my Sony, but the GoPro does an amazing job for it's size. Best of luck!

[@MarkSweeting_]

New subber 👍. Just got a 10 Black and picked up quite a few top tips. Will look at editing now. Thankyou

[@AdventureMuse]

You bet! Happy filming and editing

[@MarkSweeting_]

@@AdventureMuse I couldn't find your editing video. Could you give me a link pls? Many thanks. I used my 10 last weekend wild camping. The video is up

[@nat.outdoors]

Thanks for this video! Owned a DSLR back in the day, now I have a simple canon m100 and my phone.. but upgraded to the Hero 11 Black! After deciding forever between this and the new iphone 15 pro, gopro being the better and cheaper choice!! geez.. and the canon (even though it is smaller than a dslr, is rather annoying to carry with on adventures. Your tips really help me get to know the camera and different settings. Great job :)

[@AdventureMuse]

I was just in Italy for two weeks and my GoPro footage is so good off of my gp12! I found i grabbed for that Camera the most.

[@joanknox6647]

LOVED this video (and your others - the Angels Landing video is a favorite (we just did it a few weeks ago)). Just starting with a GoPro and this has been the most helpful of all the videos I’ve watched. And the trick to mount on the pole!!! We have the pole mount for a bike - but hadn’t thought of using our walking poles. We clipped to the backpack and it wasn’t nearly as good. PLEASE PLEASE do make that editing video. I’ll be waiting to watch. Can you tell me what program you use to edit? Thanks! - a new subscriber :)

[@AdventureMuse]

Thanks so much, Joan! I need to map out the editing video. I do get asked often what I do. So glad you got to do Angel's landing. How was it with the new permit system?

[@Justin-uc8sc]

Thank for video my very good friend God Bless

Thank you!

[@JRoss707]

I’ve been enjoying your videos. Thanks for posting and sharing. My kids just bought me a GoPro 9 for my 2+ week hike on the John Muir Trail coming up the end of August. Any tips to extend battery life? I will have a couple Anker battery packs for my inreach, iPhone and GoPro, but I know battery life will be tight. I’ll see about getting a couple back up batteries.

[@AdventureMuse]

Thanks so much. The new GoPro batteries, the white ones, do last so much longer. I hike with a solar pack that I charge everything with once I get to camp and that keeps all my tech going for days on the trail. You might want to think about getting a couple more batteries to take with you? they are so small, the weight isn't really noticable.

[@JRoss707]

@@AdventureMuse awesome, yes, I’m checking out the new Enduro max life white batteries, they look promising. I’ve had luck with a solar charger on past hikes (Lixada, super lightweight), so I’m thinking just one Anker, the solar and the two extra batteries might be good. I have charging at Muir Trail Ranch then from there to Whitney is about ten days, or possibly Cottonwood Pass will be 12 days. I see so many people tweaking their settings, for example shutting off quick capture, etc., which seems to defeat the purpose of bringing it in the first place. Thanks again for the tips.

[@MindVoice-md9qj]

Very Useful Video 🔥 Thanks for your concern ❤️

[@yeshua9323]

what is a simple but good edit programme, or am I best off learning adobe aftereffects?

[@AdventureMuse]

After effect ls isn’t simple, If you're on a Mac you can start with iMovie, if you use a GoPro, try their free Quik app, If you want to learn how to do more Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve.

[@Shekainah-qc1uv]

thank you! nice video! what editing software did you use for these hiking clips please? thanks!

[@AdventureMuse]

Thank you! I edit in Adobe Premiere pro

[@cindygarnett8118]

Great tips! Thanks! Can you attach the GoPro to your backpack strap and film while hiking or would that be too shaky?

[@AdventureMuse]

I've tried it before and didn't like the angle and it is a bit shaky. I've attached it on my capture clip which is often on my backpack strap. If you have the attachments, go for it, try it out on a hike. I just found that having it on the pole was the sweet spot.

Nossa! Lições preciosas. Obrigado.

[@robinelaine.]

Great music tip! That is my biggest struggle, picking and finding music (ok, making myself sit down and finish up edits is my biGgest struggle). •If you can add the weight to a backpack, some RainX in a travel-size spray bottle is a favorite luxury for the GoPro lens. Helps water bead off out of the shot in rain or after submerging.

[@AdventureMuse]

Thanks so much. The sit down and edit is alway a challenge. 😆 I've used RainX and now the 10 should have a coating that repels water. It works okay. Happy editing!

With no wind sock did you notice a lot of wind noise while editing ?

I didn’t, did you when you watched?

[@tomsadventures1001]

@@AdventureMuse I was wondering if it was necessary for outdoor filming. I heard it but it wasnt overbearing.

Just depends where you’re at and if it’s windy. I wish I had it when I was at white pocket, you can get those foams that go over the GoPro they do work pretty well.

Really appreciate this video and all of your advice and examples! Do you just use the onboard GoPro mic? Would love to see the editing tips video too! Just subscribed to your channel :)

[@AdventureMuse]

So glad it was helpful! Yes, I just use the GoPro mic, no modifications. It's pretty amazing how well it works from the hero 8 on, i think it's solid. It's not great in the wind, and just remember to not turn your head when your talking... 🤪(I do that sometimes) Thanks so much for subscribing! Made my day! The editing video will be coming out probably in May or June.

[@lukehobbs3177]

[@steveloudon7491]

Excellent tips. One thing I must mention though is how over saturated these clips are. Is that your personal preference? Were these color corrected and graded? Thanks

[@AdventureMuse]

personal preference. I try to always shoot in flat with the gopro.

[@steveloudon7491]

@@AdventureMuse thanks

[@hi.kingharry]

[@AdventureMuse]

Yes, I did a little bit. and thanks!

[@Tingtvph9226]

i love gopro hero 10 but my problem of my gopro is the over heating, and now i am using power bank.

[@AdventureMuse]

I’ve never had an overheating problem, but I generally take short clips. I always use the quick start so I press the record button, turns on and records. When I’m done I press again and it’s off. Saves me from over heating, draining my battery and accidentally changing my setting if the camera isn’t locked

[@Oztubee]

Hi! did you use ND filters on your hiking trip in this video? Do you recommend ND filters? Your post editing are beautiful! Your shots in this videos and the colors!
