Here's a video I shot lately in which I share with you my top tips and tricks for getting nice camera shots from behind the wheel of a car and also outside the car. I do use one or two gadgets but as you'll see in the video, some of my best shots are just done with the tripod. iFootage sent me their car mount which is featured in the video. As you'll see, it's a great piece of kit but it's not as smooth as the tripod as the tripod absorbs more bumps and shakes. I will however get better shots with it in due course when I add another level of shock absorption either via a gimbal or z-axis of some sort. If you like the video please give it a thumbs up and feel free to leave a comment down below with any questions you may have. H

Excellent video. Fantastic information. I mount a GoPro on the dead center front portion of the hood of my car all the time to record videos. I have been shooting 4K lately 60p. I’m going to try that back seat tripod setup with my full frame camera. Thank you for this.

Hi! Amazing video! I live in Ireland as well and am trying to stream road trips. I did a trip from Mayo to Cliffs of Moher today but I noticed the video is very shaky. I use an iPhone Xs and cant really afford to be spending hundreds. Any tips on equipment thats just for a phone to take away that shakiness?
Nice work
Very good 👍

Thank you for sharing Hugh! I'm just wondering there seems to be quite a few action cam options on the market, how would you recommend? Is DJI better than others(Like gopro and insta360)?
Damn I love your videos - I really am going to come to Ireland one of these days, such a beautiful country and just right for expressive film making..... Until then I will make do with your excellent film making tutorials and aspire to be as good as yourself....

There's a few roads around my area that I wanted to record driving on, and this gave me a few ideas. Also I was wondering with the tripod method if you ever tried using a bungee cord for extra stabilization?

Thanks. Yeah, there's extra levels of vibration absorption that probably could be achieved. It's kinda down to the camera too. I may do another video about this stuff and look into that.
Thank you for the inspiration Hugh, some really helpful info here. Terrifying to see your big cameras on the mounts outside the vehicle though. I guess that's what camera insurance is for !

Thanks man, yeah and thats what action cams are for too I guess. I just need to figure out a way of getting more stable footage.
Does the heat from the bonnet affect the suction mount? I want to mount the camera to the bonnet for a front facing POV.
Damn that road is narrow !! 😂😂 Good advice tho my guy!
Will a ND filter stop the picture going so dark when filming on my Sony ZXE10 when driving in the sun? I am trying to learn what best settings to use
Damn, where are all these beautiful locations filmed?
yo i had to ask u i am starting to post pov drive video i have made one and the angle is really good with this head mount but the issue is in actual video it looks i am driving really slow is there a setting which can make like 40mph look fast i was driving at 40mph but looks like 10 in video i recorded at 4k 60fps
Every mount i have got makes every video shaky and bumpy. What is one that stays still and is a smooth video
Clever! Although, I don't want to risk any breakage-damages in my car. Ha! The cost of potential accident outweighs the savings with using my tripod and gimbal. 😂 great idea though. 👍
How do you stop the camera from shaking or vibrating on the hood?
Hey Hugh nice video nice tips!! The phone holder u use for the iPhone is from the same company?

What wide angle do you use?
It would be nice to have some mirrorless camera mounted in the car but that’s not an easy task . On another note, what kind of mount do you use for your iPhone in this video ?

I'm using an ifootage product here. It comes with their slider and you can probably get them from their site.

If your video is shaky, you can use the stabilization feature in FCPX to smooth out the footage.

I think you should be entitled to it. Maybe just keep it discreet. No different to a dash cam really when you think about it.
And, how are you recording voice audio??
But remember that every country has restrictions according to high way cords, so new KZreadrs be careful please? I wish you the best

I didn't
I wouldn't use an ND for an action camera that relies on fast shutter to achieve stabilization. Instead use software like RealSmart Motion Blur which blurs by pixel vectors and add it in post. Don't bother using frame blending its crap.
@HuFilms

You're 100% right regarding the stabilisation but losing natural motion blur of the side road whizzing past is a pity.
PLEASE: DISABLE THE AIRBAG when you have the tripod in the front seat like that!
Or buy a $25 dollar cellphone dash/window holder and use the camera on that phone; almost all newer phones shoot in 1080p and 4k now. 🙄
