This is the best way now a days since every
time you take a snapshot people say its a pose. So this is the best way to
show your skill. This is really easy to do if you have a digital camera or
video editing software and hardware.
Start filming the rider from about 20-10
feet away from the target and 10-15 feet after he is done the trick. The
filming techniques are the same as the snap shots. Get down low to make it
look big and get high to make it look huge. But there is one difference
you have to film the rider from 2-5 meters away. One technique that
looks great is what I call the ride along. What you do is the camera
man/woman gets about a 1 and half meter head start by the time they have
gone 1 1/2 meters the camera should be focused on the rider and filming.
As soon as it starts filming the rider should do the trick while they are
doing there trick the filmer and rider should be inline by the time they
land the trick the rider should be ahead. The camera person should be
going pretty slow but not super slow. Just slow enough to make sure they
don't fall over with the camera.
