This is a guest post by recent college graduate and Jersey Shore native Katherine Ernst. Check out Katherine's blog on post-college life and succeeding in a technology-driven world.
How many times would it have been super convenient to have a personal cameraman follow you around and assist with a video blog, shoot some live pieces for your demo reel, record your little brother's first soccer game, or capture priceless family party events?
While some of us have become talented at balancing our camera or setting up a sturdy tripod, we all know that unfortunately we end-up with a boring still shot, a shaky pan, or an entire event stuck behind the camera.
And while technology has been advancing all around us, Swivl has developed a similar advance for anyone who is looking to shoot high end video at a decent price.
The Swivl and New Swivl are your hands-free personal cameramen. Their small, sleek design makes them perfect for just about any event or location.
As a recent college graduate on a tight budget, the Swivl has made shooting video
wherever and whenever a true reality. I have been able to shoot interviews for my demo reel, how-to video blogs, and memorable family parties without having to rent pricey equipment or pay for a videographer.
Each device is compatible with a number of apple products and the New Swivl now supports iPad’s, Android devices and DSLR cameras! The Swivl comes with a docking
station that allows your device to shoot video 360 degrees as well as an auto tilt and pan option. There is a built in microphone and sensor that allows the camera to keep the talent in focus at all times.
In other words, it’s a television/web host, field reporter, and video bloggers dream! The Swivl and New Swivl are perfect for practicing your on air skills or just having fun!
