So I love to ride just as much as i love to film... so whenever I wanna edit a edit a decent video of myself they always turn out looking like crap because of my friends filming. hes stubborn so he always says hes filming the right way and he isnt. i usually end up using a tripod and filming myself.

also im getting a fisheye soon will that help with his filming? ive heard its harder to mess up a shot with a fisheye.

I learned from watching edits and being creative.I'll post a more detailed response when I log on via computer as I am using my iPhone right now.

well if their filming is shaky, the fisheye wont do a bit of good. but if theyre having trouble keeping you in the shot, its gonna be nice. ive had the same problem, but my filmer is starting to come around.

yea he has both problems... so the fisheye will help with one at least.

if your friends is shakey then put the camera on the try pod and just have him turn that and it will be smooth
and a fisheye will make any close shots much better
but dont over use the fisheye
have some distant shots too

you shouldn't teach someone to film who hasn't film before... it's not going to be the best quality.. you should find someone who is already good at filming and let them do what they do best.
