Hey guys,

Heading out to Durango, CO this weekend, looking to record a lot of footage. Kinda new to recording videos/pics, is there any tips you guys can give that would maybe make the footage a little better?

Using a GoPro Hero HD btw, with a vivtar monopod.

Make sure it's on video mode. haha. I have hit record countless times, done an entire run, and then found out it was on the camera function, so all I have is a picture of me looking at the camera. Other than that, just point it at shit you want to film. Editing is what will make it interesting or realllllllly boring.

Trudat, i'll just have to keep variety in mind, different angles, different panning stuff, etc.
