Low following camera, from behind is usualy pretty good. Very fast, no
stopping if possible. It should be done almost like street where flow
is very important and prehops are deathly. Drops should be captured
from the bottom of the drop though. Multiple angles always help too.

Oh and most important is no shaky camera. This is very very important.

Part of the reason the filming on that video was SOOOOO good is that it
was filmed with a glide camera.

Low angle shots, but still have the riders head in the shot.

PS you have to be good at muni, too. Don't forget that. And don't use
any material that you feel you have to apologize for.

Look 'here' (http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/steadycam/) for the famous
$14 steady cam. Loose made one along similar lines and it does
genuinely work, we tried it out with me running down the side of a BMX
track while he rode, this simple apparatus did take a lot of the jerky
running action out of the shot.

Ths site tells you how to make the device with $14 worth of parts, or
if you're not handy you can pay $40 to have a pre-built one delivered
to you.

Nice the total bill for me would be around £330 🙁

What is that to buy a pre-built one and have it shipped to the UK or
something? Can you not get access anywhere to a power drill, it's about
the only tool you need to stick this thing together yourself for
peanuts. I believe Loose made his from stuff knocking around the
garage, didn't cost him a penny.

And anyway, you're not the one who was asking how to make a good muni
movie.
