Pretty Sweet ,Spot, but nowI have to change my nomenclature..
When someone said that was a bonehead move it meant a dumb one.
Now Bonehead moves are C-O-O-L !
Got any footage of Mannies first jump?
And how do you frame the shot it looks like the cams are on a slight upward angle, so are you looking w/ your eyes upwards towards your eyebrows (kinda like frowning)? & laying flat when your in the air?
Mannie's first jump would be fun to post. I'll ask.
As far as framing, you use your eye to position the shot, and usually, you want to be slightly below and back to the sun for most footage of a face shot, but if it's a team jump you want to be above, looking down.
Whereever your nose is pointed, that's basically where the lens goes. The shots taken thru the superwide, those are the world skydiving team, shot by their team photographer. He's *almost* as good a flyer as they are, and he's about 30 feet from them while shooting that superwide. I wanna be like him when I grow up.
I hadn't seen any of this before. Truly unbelievable. Parachuting down a glacier ... better than anything Cubby Broccoli ever came up with for the old James Bond openings.
