Cheap Aerial Videography for Summer Camps

http://www.tomguilmette.com Looking for a cheap way to shoot aerials? I may have found a solution. Get 30 balloons, a fishing pole, some helium, a bit of Styrofoam and a GoPro HD camera. I call it "Skyfishing". I was amazed at how smooth the shots came out. Let me know what you think. Get out there and try this! Be careful in windy conditions and I assume no responsibility if your camera ends up getting away...

Give this video some time - you won't regret it.

If you are looking to get some great aerial video shots of your summer camp you can see how it is done here.  Using a GoPro HD camera and a $20 helium ballon kit from Walmart you can take some beautiful video of your camp on a calm day.

Try it for:

  • Special Day or your "Olympics"
  • Polar Bear dip at sunrise
  • beach-front campfire at sunset (** I'm looking at you, Kintail)

What else can you picture using this set up for?
