- What's up guys?
Today, we are talking-
- About transitions
because we know you love a good transition video.
So today we have seven of them.
They're easy.
They're fun.
You can try them pretty much anywhere.
We're trying them at home today
- Or on a vacation. - Yeah.
- And hopefully you pretty much can use any GoPro.
So we're using the Hero10,
but doesn't mean you need to have a Hero10 to do them.
Let's show you what we've got.
(upbeat music)
I mean that has gotta be one of the most annoying noises.
(Jake screams)
At the top of the list, we are working on the whip.
Now this is one of our favorite in camera transitions.
For this all you're gonna need is a simple selfie stick.
And if you're outdoors,
why not try and get a little bit more motion blur
by using an ND filter.
So set your camera up at 24 frames a second
and your shutter speed at 1/48.
Always double your frame rate.
Pretty simple.
All you're gonna do is make sure that you whip in.
What's up guys?
And always whip the same way.
Keep that 360 rotation happening.
- So this-
- Is how.
(Jake laughs)
- You.
(Jake gurgles "WHIP!")
- So camera starts away.
So it's facing you guys.
Whip.
What's up?
How you doing?
You good?
Whip out.
See that?
We just keep rotating the camera.
- So this-
- Smoothie time.
(Jake screams)
Ah, we've been having such a nice day.
- All right, for lack of more creative title,
this transition is now called mouth to bag.
If you have a better recommendation,
you can drop it in the comments.
We would appreciate it 'cause the name kind of sucks,
but the transition is cool.
What you need is a bite mount,
so like this here.
And what you're gonna do
is that you're gonna get a POV perspective
with your two hands free biting like this
of you coming up to a backpack
or some sort of bag,
unzipping it open.
And then you're gonna shoot the same scene,
but the camera's gonna be at the bottom of your bag
ready to like catch you catching it.
Two important things before I step you through.
It is number one.
Use superview, right?
You want as wide an angle as possible.
Number two, if you wanna make sure
you're framing the right shot.
you can use the app.
Remember, it's right there.
You can get a preview.
So let's do it.
(upbeat music)
Take one.
(upbeat music)
Open.
(upbeat music)
- Bonus tip, to take this transition to the next level,
be sure to use either an L or a J cut.
We cover all these types of cuts
in our action camera masterclass,
Tap link in the description if you wanna learn more.
Next up is a super fun transition.
We are just getting pretty experimental to here.
We've called this one the bucket to pool.
It's two phase.
Basically, what we're trying to do here
is create some motion through to the camera,
water coming into the lens,
making sure there is motion coming out of the camera.
Three, two.
(Jake screams)
(water splashes)
- I think to make the falling part look really good,
having a longer selfie stick,
something like 90 centimeters works best
and shoot in superview.
Really give your audience the perspective
that you're falling.
Three, two.
Three, two, one.
(Jake screams)
(ambient music)
(Jake screams)
(water splashes)
- And for this next transition,
all you need is your trusty bite mouth.
Obviously, an action camera and a hat,
any hat will do,
and I'm gonna throw it on the camera POV style.
It's gonna go to dark
and then we're gonna reveal something.
(ambient music)
If you guys have enjoyed any of the transitions
you've already seen in today's video,
we'd love it if you could take a second
and punch that thumbs up button.
- That's right.
And if you'd like to learn more,
we actually have an entire masterclass.
First link right into description.
That's four module.
We go in depth in all things,
action, camera, filmmaking related,
pretty much all our knowledge compiled
in four module over 40 lessons.
There's so much there.
First link.
- Okay.
We're giving it a little shaky shake shake.
- Shake.
- Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
- Now we're onto the shake.
For this effect to work best,
you wanna avoid using high frame, right?
So think 24, that's a deal.
And you can also use an indie filter
if you wanna get some extra motion blur in there.
- So this is what we call the shake.
Super important to make sure
that when you do this transition, you get enough.
- Try to shake it.
- Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
- So after trial and error,
we have a couple recommendations.
Number one is turning off the hyper smooth.
That's right. The one time you wanna turn it off is now
because you really wanna get that shake.
Second thing we tried with the bite mount,
but you don't get a good grip.
It's much better with a selfie stick
where you can really whack it around
and then really get that motion blur.
- Let's test it.
This transition is called the POV to sky.
All you are gonna need is a bite mount
and preferably a blue sky.
Now we like to do this one
or we like to shoot in linear or wide.
Superview's gonna make that match cut a little harder.
So let's show you what we're gonna do.
(upbeat music)
(Jake laughs)
- Great.
One, when?
(ambient music)
(Jake laughs)
Next transition is the pool to bath transition
or vice versa.
This is the bath station of the pool to bath transition.
You can start whichever way you want.
Now important for this to work
is you must keep continuity and consistency
with the person holding the camera.
So if we're in the bath
and the camera's in my left hand,
make sure it is also in your left hand
and they, your partner or-
- Your friend.
- Friend-
- Your roommate.
- (laughs) Your "colocataire" is on the right.
(ambient music)
- Whoa (mumbles).
(ambient music)
(Jack laughs)
- Guys, thank you so much for checking out today's video.
Hopefully this has filled you with a bunch of ideas
for your upcoming Euro summer vacation.
- That's right.
And we have more transition ideas for you
right there in those videos
in the cards or in the end cards.
It's all in there.
- See you guys in the next episode.
Peace.
