I’ve been trying to get (back?) into making videos.
So this weekend, I tried to make sure I had my GoPro on me, and I made it a point to shoot what was happening.
But shooting footage has never really been my issue. I have done that a lot in my life.
If you know me, typically I stay WAYYY behind schedule on actually editing that footage into a cool little video to share or recap an adventure I had.
So as Sunday evening approached, with nothing on my radar except to watch Game of Thrones, I decided I would try to download the footage and make the whole video that night. So that’s what I did.
This video took me about 3 hours, but I also watched a Game of Thrones episode during it, so that slowed me down considerably. Anyway, hope you like it.

Lessons learned from this project:
Shoot more things.
There were some moments I shied away from using the camera. I won’t do that again.
Get a lens cap.
My GoPro model doesn’t support a cover, but I think the Black model does. 😉
I need a better mic.
The onboard mic of the GoPro isn’t bad, but I’d prefer something better.
My daughter loved the GoPro.
I think she may need to start using mine as a hand-me-down. 🙂
