Pros

  • If it's for YouTube and social media... you could get a couple of GoPro or similar small cameras and mount them inconspicuously, but with a good view, ahead of time.
  • Does he film himself on a phone? GoPro.
  • Get a shot from above and behind to show the back of DJ in foreground and audience out beyond (could be a GoPro or something fixed and rigged).
  • I like your setup, I would just had a really super wide thing like a go pro crammed in the ceiling (if possible) for that occasionally over the top view.
  • I only use chin or chest mount with an Insta360 x3 in good weather and a Gopro or other flat camera in wet or muddy conditions.

Cons

  • action cams look like cheap stuff and the videos often show yellowy blurred faces
  • Dji and insta360 seems to be doing much better than go pro
  • Great camera… if he is into that type of thing. I’m not. I had a GoPro and realized I just don’t want to spend my day videoing, and want to focus on skiing. When you are skiing the camera often ends up angled similarly to the angle of th...

Great camera… if he is into that type of thing. I’m not. I had a GoPro and realized I just don’t want to spend my day videoing, and want to focus on skiing. When you are skiing the camera often ends up angled similarly to the angle of the slope, so you can be skiing really steep stuff but the video looks unimpressive.

I presume most people use a GoPro camera too?
