How to film and edit 360 motorcycle video footage - Insta360 Tutorial

[@MotoMengy]

Excellent video, maybe the best one I've seen yet for motovlogging with an Insta360. Thanks!

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks

[@DaMackMedia]

Thanks

[@mancavemoto]

No problem

[@davidz8]

Very interesting to someone like me who knows absolutely nothing about 360 degree cameras, I am interested in the upcoming DJI 360 camera. I realise I am years late to this but thank you for the really helpful basics.

[@mancavemoto]

Welcome aboard!

[@ianjames3078]

This is a remarkably clear, concise and useful explanation of the camera. The best I’ve seen. Now to find £500.

[@ianjames3078]

And a ‘subscribe’. 👍

[@mancavemoto]

Glad it helped, and thanks for the subscribe

[@Tall-Guy]

Just bought a Insta360 and had no idea how to edit the files, your video clearly solves the mystery, thanks. 🙂

[@mancavemoto]

Happy to help!

[@motorcyclesandthings8633]

Took your ideas , bought a praktica z360 quarter of the price ,124 quid , and used insta studio to edit the vid , cheers shane , watching this video helped with the editing on my vid , very thankful shaneweightman

[@mancavemoto]

Excellent, and no worries

[@ckfvideo]

Took me a while to find a good video on this process, especially from a motorcyclist point of view. Thanks for the helpful content!

[@mancavemoto]

Glad it was helpful!

[@fairweathermotorcyclist]

Just brilliant, wasn't sure if I should jump from my current setup, you have given me the confidence to give it a go. Thank you 😊

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks, glad the video was helpful

HOLY SH...CRAP! THIS VIDEO HAS BLOWN MY MIND! You sir are the man!

[@mancavemoto]

Thank you

[@royalottmar6054]

Very useful. Most just seem to brush by the editing as if we should already know how. They just zoom past but this is very new to many of us.

Great video. I have ordered an Insta360 One X2 and I cannot wait to test it :-)

[@mancavemoto]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@Shining_Whit]

Absolutely fascinating Tony! I will most probably never use a 360 cam but knowing what detailed work you motovlogers do to achieve the results you do is extremely interesting.

[@mancavemoto]

Awesome, thank you!

[@mancavemoto]

No problem Angela, glad it helped

[@HarleyGeezer1954]

Thank you for the video. There was no way I was going to edit videos on my phone. I just got the 360 1x2 for Christmas and this looks like the proper way to edit the footage. I have been in in 360 school for a couple of days and will shoot some footage this weekend.

[@mancavemoto]

No problem, have fun!

[@RRRRefuelRideRace]

A very useful video. Basically this is what you need to start. :) Thanks for sharing. Keep up.

[@mancavemoto]

Glad it was helpful!

[@karlosh9286]

excellent. Loved the video. You have tempted me to go 360 degree. Not that I've started pushing much up in the way of videos to youtube yet !

[@mancavemoto]

Go for it!

[@Casal650]

Thank you for such a good content. I will apply everything when I got my 360. Regards from Brazil!

[@Matik0912]

Great vid, thanks! wondering if you ever used this set up offroad. was thinking of getting the 360 R to use on dualsport rides, but I'm worried the video will be shaky (not to mention im not sure the camera can handle a fall)

[@mancavemoto]

Very light offroad yes, but its not very stable from a mounting point of view. The camera does a pretty good job of stabilising the footage, but leverage is a problem with the camera on a long stick

[@milltown]

Excellent, now I understand keyframes. Thank you.

[@mancavemoto]

Glad it helped!

[@luisaugustobf]

amazing video, thanks Tony!

[@mancavemoto]

My pleasure!

[@stuarthull5706]

Thank so much for this I’ve been thinking of getting a camera and the 360 seems to be best choice but I was worried about the editing as I’m not used to it. I will also fit a Innov as a permanent camera for safety reasons and they are always on!

[@mancavemoto]

Glad I could help!

[@HarleyGurl114]

Great video!! Thanks for sharing.

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks for watching!

[@FahadAlEneziHighControl]

Best video about Insta360, here goes my subscribe

[@mancavemoto]

Thank you, and welcome to the channel

[@robertyork4041]

Really informative video, thanks. I'm not interested in creating vlogs but I am interested in using a camera like this to record interesting rides and the scenery, but I can't find anything on KZbin that covers that objective - everyone seems to want to record themselves ;) Would the Insta360 One X2 be good for this i.e. capturing scenery all around? GoPro and other single direction cameras are either forward, rear or rider facing only and they tend to flatten steep hills etc. so you lose the perspective.

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks, yes the beauty of the camera is that it’s filming in 360 degrees all the time. You just select what you want to focus on when it come to the edit

[@BraveMuffin92]

Great Video:) But one question I always have is if the vibration of the motorcycle does damage the camera in the long run? There is a Vibration damper that can be bought but I have never seen anyone use it 🤔 so I wonder if it really is not neccessary?

[@mancavemoto]

No as far as I know there are no issues, the camera doesn’t have ‘mechanical’ anti vibration’ like an iPhone does. These are as robust as any other action cam

[@yiannishayabusaofficial]

AWESOME VIDEO ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! FANTASTIC ! ! ! ! ! ! SUPERB ! ! ! ! ! TOP ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

[@mancavemoto]

Many thanks!!

[@Stuartyh7]

This is an awesome video! Thanks mate. 360 video looks quite easy to do after seeing that. The insta software looks great as well. One question - how are you recording the sound of the bike? I assume its not coming from the insta360 as its positioning would give serious wind noise? Is it possible to record the bike sound using the insta? External mic perhaps?

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks, the bike sound is coming from the mic in my helmet thats recording my voice. The sound is pretty decent from the INSTA360 at slow speeds, but yep wind noise is a real problem on the bike.

[@MuitheExplorer]

Thanks for the video, it ie very helpful! I just got mine with motorcycle bundle and got the same setup as you, just mounted to the mirror bar. How much do you trust the clamps? Are they safe enough for higher speeds?

[@mancavemoto]

Glad it helped, and yes they've been pretty good so far for me

[@ron5184]

Thanks, Just got mine for a Rockies trip. ? Can you make one video form several video clips. If so can you do a video on that. I'm an old dog learning new tricks so to speak.. Like the way you explain things simple and to the point.

[@mancavemoto]

Yes you can, but you'll need different video editing software to pull the clips together. insta360 studio as far as I can see only has the ability to work with one piece of footage at a time.

[@dougscott188]

This is excellent video. Demystifies the paradigm of the editing software. One question, do you prefer the desktop over the mobile version?

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks. I like what you can do with the mobile version and its great for getting content onto social media when out and about. But for form factor, I prefer to edit on the desktop.

[@dke7838]

This explainer and demo is excellent. So helpful, thank you!

[@mancavemoto]

You're very welcome!

[@togeika]

Did you use a mic and the Gopro to record voice while you were riding? I see nothing connected to the One X2. I do my framing on my iPad. P.S. You answer the sound recording at the end. You also mention phone editing too. THanks!

[@mancavemoto]

No worries

[@YumieLumie]

Great clip! I really wanted to grab this camera but really intrigued to how the post production nightmare would it bring. Turns out its quite simple as you explained it! Anyway I can't help but to notice that your blinkers going on and off during your ride? Or is that just camera. I have CB250R so I know the blinkers stays on during the ride but never flickers when moving

[@mancavemoto]

Thank you. Yes the flickering lights are just down to the frame rate i used on the camera. I usually shoot at 24fps, but if I switched to 50 that effect would disappear.

[@corvette8088]

This was an awesome video thank you for making it.

[@mancavemoto]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@alipayne5139]

16:43 hi great video, can you stitch in go pro or drift footage to combine cameras

[@jezwc]

This is such a good video fair play!

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks

[@dungbeetlemovies]

Great video, Tony. Was the footage we saw filmed just using the shortish handlebar mount system you showed us, or did you have to use a longer stick? The reason I ask, is that the bike appeared to be a nice 'useful' distance away from the camera. Cheers.

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks and good point! the footage of me riding the trident in the editing section was filmed with the same bar clamp but with the invisible selfie stick. The parts of me on the CB1000 were shot with the set up you saw. I forgot to mention that in the video

[@Gearoclock]

@dungbeetle thanks i was about to ask that

[@Gearoclock]

@@mancavemoto thanks to you for the video. Amazing explanation and I hope there’s a windows version of this application

[@FastRu-kl7iy]

[@1990-t1j]

Looking forward to hearing about the CB1000R. Good bike?

[@mancavemoto]

Lovely bike, just as you would expect. It does everythign very well and very smoothly

[@mickeydeagle]

Just bought this camera today. Thanks for the software primer and overall great content. Would love to know your thoughts on other mounting locations on the bike.

@@mancavemoto brilliant, thanks!

[@anissco]

Hey Tony. Nice Video like you always do.👍👍👌💯💯💯 Do you use Lens Guard on your insta360 One x2? If yes, wich one are you using? Thank you....

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks, no I don’t use lens guards. But having trashed one camera I should probably look at them

[@IanTed]

Just invested in one, looks fun but a steep learning curve.

[@mancavemoto]

Its not too bad, you can get great results very quickly

[@valigeorge9110]

Thanks! Could please tell me how much the selfie stick was extended for the second movie, the one on the highway? Look really good and floating. Btw, nice bike!

[@mancavemoto]

It was fully extended

[@stevenangel317]

Great tutorial. Much appreciated and helpful

[@mancavemoto]

Glad it was helpful!

[@RRRRefuelRideRace]

Agree Steven. Drop by. You may be interesting. :) Thanks.

[@Andy_FXBB]

Hi, can you plug the camera into your laptop and download all the files to empty the card whilst on a long trip? Brilliant video btw. It’s my go to video.

[@mancavemoto]

Yes you can, and thanks

[@chrissalvador6522]

Hi there! Have you had any issues with the clamp chipping paint off of the handlebar? I notice that the bike mount that came from Insta360 didnt have any rubber to protect the handlebar from the mount. Thank you!

[@mancavemoto]

I didn't

[@dasBestevomNorden]

Where do you fixed the X2 and with wich Stick at the bike, when you made the videos you worked with in the insta studio?

[@mancavemoto]

For the video I was editing I used the same handle bar ram ball mount as the intro, but with the 120cm Invisible selfie stick

[@dasBestevomNorden]

@@mancavemoto Thx!

[@dumbcat]

i wonder if there is a realistic way to get 360 footage from the rider's POV without chopping of your head and sticking a selfie stick down your neck hole? maybe use one camera on each side of your helmet?

[@terenceokeeffesmotorcyclestuff]

Excellent handy video, cheers.

[@mancavemoto]

No problem 👍

[@BeardedDaddyD]

Can you add multiple videos together? I was thinking of getting one of these for the dirt drags next year. There is alot of down time between passes. So I would have multiple short videos. It would be cool if I could add them all together

[@mancavemoto]

This software is more designed to edit the footage before moving into another editor, but I think you should be able to add multiple clips to the timeline

[@SonikDMV2A]

Are you using a longer stick to record the video you're editing or the first small one you showed at the begining?

[@mancavemoto]

Yes the video i'm editing is with the selfie stick fully extended

[@stockmarketkachtiya4761]

i am loving this camera but single thing i dont like it the curve kind of footage....i am sure they will improve thisnin next version...and this camera features are superb...never had thought such kind of footage

[@FastnCurious]

Thank you mate awesome video and greatly appreciated indeed!

[@mancavemoto]

Glad it helped

[@cyclepath3280]

Been using it and love it. Just trying to figure out the audio

[@mancavemoto]

Same here, I tend not to use the audio from it when filming on the bike as it’s obviously hard to minimise wind noise. But at low speeds I think it does a reasonable job

[@AmenCornerRider]

After the 3 claps, how do you merge the cameras in editing, going back and forth between cameras? Thanks.

[@mancavemoto]

It’s a case of sitting the clips on top of each other in the editing software, lining them up using the claps, then cutting and hiding or deleting the parts you don’t need

[@AlanBathurst]

excellent video, very informative, thanks for your trouble.

[@mancavemoto]

Glad it was helpful, thanks for watching

[@MattVenturesMoto]

Been tempted for a while on these. Used the old ricoh 360 few yrs ago but the vid quality was poor... insta360 does seem to nail it ...

[@mancavemoto]

They are getting better, Insta360 seem to be concentrating on the user experience which is a good thing

[@TheDhanush-Vlogs]

Simple and convenient sir 🗿🤝🏼

[@mancavemoto]

Glad it was of use

[@giuliozanni6046]

I am interested in taking photographs rather than videos, I guess the camera works in the same way for stills. How is the quality of the still files? Is there a possibility to defish the image in the software? Thanks

[@mancavemoto]

HI, yes theres plenty of viewing options for the photos

[@GWMotley1]

Thanks for the info. Just placed an order thru your link to help your channel.

[@mancavemoto]

Awesome, thank you very much!

[@glen3468]

i havent a clue about editing,can i add another video to the previous video ? also how do you add music?

[@mancavemoto]

You can, but they is better software for that. This software is more about just editing the 360 footage.

[@kevinb.3528]

Does the studio work in windows and or Microsoft? I’m having trouble getting studio access? Plugged into my laptop via usb. I’m new at Insta360 and I’m probably just doing something wrong that’s simple. I log in and see my account, but that’s it.

[@mancavemoto]

Yes its windows compatible. You should see an import window when you plug the card in. Sometimes if the card is 'unamed' Studio doesnt always see it first time.

[@Hogdriver88]

This was the best edit explanation I’ve seen yet (and done on a Mac). I’ve been researching 360 cams for a while to add as a second cam to the bike and I think I have made my decision. I see the buttons on the software for Premiere and FCP - do you know if this will work with DaVinci Resolve as well? Thanks and new sub 👍

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks, there are plug ins for both FCP & PP, but i've not seen anything for Resolve. I tend to just edit the clips in insta360 studio, then import them with the rest of my projects in FCP

[@Hertfordshire_Biker]

I think AndyManCam mentioned a Resolve plugin in his review video.

[@smaca5250]

Very interesting, have you watched the 360-degree videos that Sven Olsen has recently uploaded of Norway, you can adjust the viewpoint in real-time, absolutely brilliant. I don’t how the editing is done in this case, maybe it just a direct upload?

[@mancavemoto]

I will check it out

[@jimasful]

Great video ,thank you very much .

[@mancavemoto]

You are welcome!

[@mototravelous]

Great video. Just picked up the 360. Question- what frame rate do you shoot in the 360 when wanting to combine it with gopro footage? I typically shoot my gopro in 60fps, but insta360 doesn't have 60fps. Thanks!

[@mancavemoto]

Cheers, I shoot everything at 24fps anyway so I never encounter that problem

[@jonsherry6289]

🤔🤔🤔 leave it to the pros me thinks, lovin the channel 😎

[@mancavemoto]

Cheers Jon, its easy after bit of playing around

[@wireless2-way633]

Great video, very easy to follow. I've watched a lot of videos about editing and nothing made sense. Thank you. My question is - What software are you using to merge or stitch the two videos together (GoPro & Insta360 footage) in your last shot. Is it Adobe Premiere Pro?

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks, I was trying to keep things simple. I use Final Cut Pro to edit my videos.

[@1967Cubby]

Thanks for the reply. Any chance you have or can do a video on the use of Final Cut Pro with the merging of Insta360 & GoPro videos. Is there a cost to FCP?

[@mancavemoto]

That could be something to look at. Yes Final Cut Pro is a piece of software that needs an outright purchase, currently it costs £250

[@mancavemoto]

I already use Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom, so I could upgrade my subscription to include premiere pro. But it’s a while new thing to learn and I’ve already paid for FCP. (It was about £150 when I bought it)

[@1967Cubby]

Ouch, You’re 150 is my $400+. I’m Australia. I’m just wanting to piece to cameras together for some video to put on YT and show the family. I tried the Premiere Pro because various videos showed that software when loading Insta360, But that package is close to $50 per month and very hard to learn. Thanks for you help, all the best with your channel.

[@Ktmsmcr690r]

Just starting to use a insta360 on my ktmsmcr690

[@pngndnfan]

Excellent video. Question, what software do you use to combine the different clips together?

[@mancavemoto]

I use Final Cut Pro, but apparently you can combine multiple clips in Insta 360 studio, so I’m looking into that….

[@mark3863]

It’s because of all that “faff” that I don’t do KZbin videos and rather leave it to pros like you.

[@mancavemoto]

Pros? lol

[@mark3863]

Yes, your videos are superb and come across as very professional.

[@mnbala2003]

Good Content.. I Learned about how shoot & edit 360Deg video's...

[@karlosh9286]

I like the strobe effect ( I'm guessing the FPS of the camera and some Honda electronics are running at similar frequencies ) with the permanently on Honda Indicators. Looks like you have hazard flashers on, when you I guess you don't :-D

[@mancavemoto]

Yes, thats exactly whats going on. Its still one of the very few things that bugs me about the current Honda range.

[@karlosh9286]

@@mancavemoto . A couple of years ago I had a cb125r. I wished I could have switched off the permanently on indicators. Personally I thought they could be confusing for car drivers !

[@jrtride164]

How to trim videos you dont like in the middle of the video for example I like the first 2 mins, and i will delete the 2:30mins to 3mins? And how are you syncing gopro and insta360 into one whole video? Thanks

[@mancavemoto]

I find it easier to do all that in Final Cut Pro, which is my main editing software

[@johnclapperton8211]

It would be nice if there were a keyframe with before and after views, to make a clean cut with continuous audio, rather than only being able to do a zip-pan between two close keyframes.

[@mancavemoto]

indeed

[@Grimreapervlogs]

Hi quick question I have a dji osmo action and when I record videos it will give me mutiple files like if I recorded a 20 Min video I think I end up with 4 or so files it splits the file after a certain amount of recording cant remember if it's 5min or 10 min then it splits the files. With the insta 360 does it do that as well or no matter how long u record it will be all as 1 file ? Hope u can answer I think im going to get a insta 360 x3

[@mancavemoto]

I’ll check but I’m pretty sure it records it as all one file. Well for the length I’ve recorded clips for. You need to consider that it’s recording two videos at 5.3k so the files can get pretty big!

[@Grimreapervlogs]

@@mancavemoto when ever u get a chance to check that would be great. That's one annoying thing about my osmo action recording longer videos I always up with with mutiple clips I need then add together would rather it be 1 larger file with the hole video as 1 file. I don't mind if insta 360 gives 2 clips 1 lower quality and 1 larger size thats full quality

[@stalkev]

What is interesting to me not knowing anything about that technology it's how that camera mounted on your handlebar projects you as if someone is standing in front of you video taping you From 5' away I'm not sure how it does it but it is really interesting.

[@mancavemoto]

It’s all clever stuff!

[@tobyreal6647]

Nice one! .. unfortunately you didn't cover how to put/edit 2 clips together .. I've seen that any other videos neither..

[@mancavemoto]

No thats true, but only because i tend to edit each piece in this software before I edit my full video in Final Cut Pro. There is a new version of the software, and although its essentially the same process, they have improved it in quite a few areas. I’ll look and making a follow up video
