mounted camera on headstock

[marko138]

we did it on my bass in the studio:


the entire demo track if interested:

I was gonna post the whole track with just your video, then I decided not to.

Bah! That looks so cool. After looking at all the different videos posted, I need 3 cameras: headstock, bridge, and pointed out to the crowd. Mix and match from there.

Great idea. The camera mounted on [preferred place here] looks cool, but not for an entire song. Cutting or fading to other shots or mixing and matching keeps it interesting and keeps the viewer engaged for more than 15 seconds.

Here's one of my favorite headstock cam vids:

I'm having trouble finding a proper place for GoPro video sharing here. This seemed like the most recent thread I could find!

Got to take the GoPro to church this weekend and test it out over 4 services. Showed some footage to our tech director and he's already wanting to hook it up to their camera system.

I agree it gets boring and dizzy-Ing staring at one shot for too long, but still there needs to be more bass cams in the world.

Cool, but did you notice how often you touch your tone knob? Seems like any rest, you check the tone knob.
Not criticizing, just found it interesting.

Trust me I've noticed! Having the ability to watch back our services I always notice every time I touch my face, stand weird, etc.

For the most part I check my volume knob. In this song I was fading out, then rolling it back in after a long rest. I made a habit of always rolling back the volume of I am resting for extended periods of time. This allows me to be more liberal with clapping, raising hands, or whatever I decide to do without worry of unwanted string rattle or noise coming from the bass.

Watch any of my videos and you'll see me excessively touch my volume knob. Seems at this point I can't control the urge. Maybe I should line it with cactus needles or something, or put a shock collar on.

OKay, It looked like it was the tone knob, but can't be sure. Doesn't bother me. Just saw it as one of those things we all do that we don't realize we are doing.
You points as to why are valid. If it were me, I'd forget to roll it back up and end up entering silently. doh!
Interesting view, though.

I see that a lot in "live" videos, especially guitarists. I'm guilty as well.

Done that before too. Usually it's I forget to turn off the tuner.
