I wonder two bikes or a selfie ride. I’ve done with foward view, otherwise worry about bump into into someone if doing this type of selfie on a scooter
clearly some selfie shots while riding (the stick gets edited out of the shot) plus a drone at the end, mixed with cameraman shots too
I don’t think so. I reckon there is a camera man on the back of a different bike.
This would be the normal way, rider and pillion with a steady cam.
Yes, but would they be operating with a3 man news crew here in Taipei? The scooter looks very steady in the frame, and apparently filmed from a rather narrow gap between other scooters at one point.
I suggest he’s using something like an Insta360 _see this article:
I changed my mind after watching another YouTuber using one on a bicycle.
Same angle etc.
So I think you are right and it was a selfie stick.
I was amazed how well the guy spoke while riding
yes just watched this video, it seams to have the same bike floating in the air feel in some parts
But also some parts are filmed from a second scooter. like the shot below.
I know part of the BBC Asia team moved from china to Taiwan recently, but also they would could just employ a local camera crew.
This was shot by Jiro Akiba, its credited in the article.
Great post !
