How to make a video of diving

You need to be careful when recording a dive video. The first is to keep your video short. Remember that most viewers only have a 3-minute attention span. This means you must edit 90 seconds worth of great footage quickly. This will ensure that your video has a greater chance of being shared and hit more times.

TikTok

Diving is a well-known water sport. It may appear like a simple activity that involves jumping off a platform or springboard, and then diving into the deep. However, it is actually a complicated sport that requires dedication and a lot of effort. These are some of the things to keep in mind while making a TikTok diving video.

GoPro

If you're planning to record a GoPro video of diving, you'll want to take a few precautions before you get started. A quality GoPro Super Suit is a must. These suits can drop down to 60 m and can help you keep the camera steady during your shoots. It is also important to look for a handle for underwater use.


GoPro problems

GoPro cameras are small and inexpensive, making them easy to use for underwater diving. But the video quality can be a problem. Some videos lack color, or are too dark. Editing clips to improve quality can resolve these problems.

Problems with wide-angle lenses

Wide-angle lenses for video diving are problematic because they don’t provide uniform lighting. To achieve consistent results, try focusing on lighting your subject from the front. A strobe attached to a long arm can also help to avoid overexposure and direct light to your subject. You should take several tests before you decide on the best way to light your subject. Adjust the power of the strobe and aperture/shutter speed as necessary.

Editing underwater video

Editing an underwater video is a critical step for sharing your experience with the world. Your audience only has a limited attention span so it is important to keep your video short. The average attention span of your audience is three minutes. You should keep the footage short and manageable. Choose the best clips, and then arrange them in a coherent sequence. To make the video more entertaining, you can also add text to the clips or transitions.
