March 2024 tour of High Falls during a mild snow storm
It's been a minute since I made one of these videos (it takes some effort / time / artistic inspiration to produce them and I've been posting shorter clips on Instagram), but I got some excellent b-roll of High Falls while getting a bite to eat for lunch, I happened to have the GoPro on the handlebar mount at the time, and it got an acceptable GNSS fix... so I ended up putting this together.
Events like this and the lilac festival are always staffed by low energy authoritarians like this who make up arbitrary rules just because they can.

B-roll from a ride out to the beach on the unicycle with my brother from another mother leading. Came up with a a different reframing technique where the camera will use magnetic compass and GNSS data to keep the video near perfectly stabilized and pointed in a consistent magnetic direction, which means I have to manually keyframe the video perspective every time my direction of travel changes in the video. In short, more post-processing work for better video stability. Enjoy!
