Finally got around to replacing my GoPro lens on my Hero3+. If you don’t remember, I managed to scratch it while using it to film from a RC car. See post here. I tried to buff out the scratch using some very ultra fine sandpaper (3000 grit), followed by some […]
So, we’re gonna start shooting a movie soon and we don’t really need a big slate, but we do need a consistent “clap” in order to sync camera and external microphone audio in post. Basically you need a sharp clap but not the big clapper. I could buy one but […]
My good buddy John let me borrow his really nice RC car. I’ve always wanted to mount my GoPro on it. Not a new thing but I’ve never done it. So during Spring Break 2016, I thought I’d try. I have a whole long list of shots I wanted to try […]

I don’t know about you but every time I want to take my camera strap off, it’s such a bother. I’ve used some quick release clips but then part of the strap stays on the camera and its bothersome. So my buddy Rick turned me on to these Mini S-Clips. […]
