5 Mistakes to Avoid Filming Dance Videos

[@monyashadfar]

This video was great! I have zero camera/filmmaking experience. My brother spins fire and I’m looking for ways to help him film content. I’m so happy I found your channel!

You have some very valuable information here; however, it doesn’t really help me as I film dance as a part of live theatre and dance shows in theatres.

Great points Kai! All the best with your course 💪!

[@KaiVertigoh]

Thank you so much Richard!! Hopefully this knowledge will make it easier to work with dancers, so they have the insight and empathy to work more directly with you :)

wow this helps alot and saves me some time... instead of just observing the do and don't patterns of all dance videos xD thanks a bunch

[@KaiVertigoh]

Happy to help! Thank you Nexus :)

Hello, Can i ask you what would be the ideal focus setting to film an group dance video - have an Nikon Z6 - i like the information - very helpful - i normally film one subject at a time. Thanks

[@KaiVertigoh]

Hey Rajesh! For a group dance video, I'd recommend shooting at a higher aperture (f4-5.6) Just so that more of your subjects are in focus. Lower can work too, but it might be more difficult to keep everybody in focus!

Nice video! I´m more into filming couples dancing now, you have a lot of experience and tips filming 1 or more couples dancing like salsa? Regards Francisco

Kai! i love this videos! really looking to sign up for your movement media mentorship as soon as i can! but i have one question: Whats the gimbal mode you recomend to film regular class dance videos?

[@KaiVertigoh]

Heyy thank you so much!! I would say to start, pan-follow (PF) will do you just fine, but once you want to start adding new dimensions, try playing with Pan-Tilt-Follow!

[@RISEDANCECAMP]

@@KaiVertigoh hello!! Thank you a lot.. this is actually so helpful , I'll try that 🙏🏽🙏🏽⚡️⚡️

[@catsjoebreaker]

Hey Kai, THANK YOU for these points! im starting my business of filming different kind of things (dance, business, ...). Where I am searching still is what fps you should chose for dance? I'm always shooting at 25FPS with 1/50 ... but it's like I can't get that sharp image! Thank you for sharing this wisdom!

Amazing

[@leonieprodz]

Really great video, thanks for the tips! May I ask what lense and gimbal you use? :)

[@griigsee8316]

Hey Kai, do you think it's fine to use a sigma 28-70 mm zoom lens?
