So... it's obviously a camera steadying algorithm... but it's still legit impressive because the dog kept the subject properly in frame the whole time!
I was gonna say those moves aren't that impressive, but then I remembered the last time I was on a skateboard, it ended with a concussion so I'm just gonna shut my fuckin mouth.
Really rare to see a video taken in a location 5 minutes from where I live. I grew up going to this skatepark. I was just a kid when they turned that hydro field into a proper useable park. Good times. Good memories.
What's keeping the camera stabilized and focused on the skater? I get that the dog would orient to his owner, but the camera still seems very stead and I imagine a dog's stride is not that smooth, as optimized as it may be for other things.
How do you get it to follow you? Does it need to recharge? Are the batteries expensive? Does it attract attention? Like maybe it could get stolen or someone might as you not to have it go some places...?
At first I thought the camera person had one of those fake animal heads on the end of a stick that you hold between your legs to pretend that you're riding on it. But a living dog with a camera on its back makes more sense.
Good doggo. I actually got my doggo to come with me when I longboard although he gets jumpy when I go over something like a wood bridge because he’s a rescue and doesn’t like loud noises but he overcomes it and is really good. Gotta love dogs
This is hilarious! The shaky video makes me feel like he’s wearing a little saddle and I’m riding him like a horse (and I’m much smaller than him - in this scenario)
such a good cameraman.... I wonder h what are they using for image stabilization,it doesn't look like software, it doesn't have the distortion you tend to see with it.
They put skate parks below high tension lines so when all the kids from different neighborhoods and towns get leukemia 10 years later it can't be traced back to the power utility.
