Here are some things to keep in mind if you want to make a diving video. You must ensure that your video is short. Remember that most viewers only have a 3-minute attention span. This means that 90 seconds worth footage must be edited in a precise fashion. Your video will be more likely to get shares and hits.

TikTok

Divers enjoy a wide variety of water sports around the world, including diving. 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. You should be aware of these things when you are making a TikTok footage of diving.

GoPro

If you're planning to record a GoPro video of diving, you'll want to take a few precautions before you get started. You will need a high-quality GoPro Super Suit. These suits are waterproof to 60 meters, and will keep your camera steady while you're shooting. Also, look out for a handle specifically designed for underwater use such as a Telescopic.


GoPro: Problems

Many people use the GoPro camera to record their underwater dives. It is small and affordable. The camera's video may have issues. Some videos lack color, or are too dark. Editing clips can fix these problems.

Wide-angle lenses can cause problems

Wide-angle lenses can be problematic for video of diving. They don't provide uniform lighting. Instead, focus on lighting the subject in the foreground to achieve consistent results. You can avoid overexposure by attaching a strobe to a longarm. This will direct the light directly to your subject. Take several test shots before you find the best direction to light your subject. As needed, adjust the power of the flash and the aperture/shutter speed.

Editing underwater video

An important step is to edit your underwater video before sharing it with the world. You must keep your video brief because people have limited attention spans. You have three minutes to grab their attention. It's important to keep the video short. To do this, select the best clips from the footage, and keep them in a logical sequence. The video can be made more engaging by adding text or transitions.
