You need to be careful when recording a dive video. First, make sure your video is concise. Remember that most viewers only have a 3-minute attention span. This means that 90 seconds worth footage must be edited in a precise fashion. Your video will be more likely to get shares and hits.
TikTok
Divers are a very popular water sport around the globe. While it might seem simple, one jumps off a springboard/platform and then dives in the deep. It is a complex activity that requires dedication to the sport. There are a few things you should keep in mind when making a TikTok video of diving.
GoPro
You should be aware of the following tips before you start recording a GoPro video about diving. You will need a high-quality GoPro Super Suit. These suits are waterproof to 60 meters, and will keep your camera steady while you're shooting. Look for a handle made specifically for underwater use, such a telescopic.
GoPro: Problems
GoPro is a small, affordable and simple-to-use camera that many have used to record underwater dives. However, the camera's video can have problems. Some videos have no color or are too dull. Editing clips to improve quality can resolve these problems.
Problems with wide-angle lenses
One of the main problems with wide-angle lenses for video of diving is that they don't give you uniform lighting. You'll get better results if you focus on lighting your subject in front. An attached strobe to a longer arm can help you avoid overexposure while still directing light to your subject. Take several test shots before you find the best direction to light your subject. As required, adjust the shutter speed and power of both the strobe or aperture.
Editing underwater video
An important step is to edit your underwater video before sharing it with the world. Because your viewers have a finite attention span, it is essential that the video be short. The average person has three minutes to grab your attention. Therefore, it is important that the footage be kept short. You can do this by selecting the best clips and keeping them in a logical arrangement. The video can be made more engaging by adding text or transitions.
