Weekend Hashtag Project: #WHPholdstill
The goal this weekend is to take creative videos where you hold your camera completely still in order to capture the motion in a set frame. Some tips to get you started:
Setting is everything for this project. Look for scenes like crosswalks or parks that naturally feature lots of motion. Frame your shot, hit record, then hold your camera as still as possible while you capture the action. Alternatively, stage a scene as you would a photo then stage motion within the fixed frame, such as a person walking through the frame or a hand reaching in to remove something. Finally, for the most stable shot possible, film your shot with Hyperlapse and play it back at 1x speed.
PROJECT RULES: Please add the #WHPholdstill hashtag only to videos taken over this weekend and only submit your own videos to the project. If you include music in your video submissions, please only use music to which you own the rights. Any tagged video taken over the weekend is eligible to be featured Monday morning.
