A Creator’s Walk at The Forks: Capturing Winnipeg’s Waterfront with the DJI Pocket 3
Last updated: July 6, 2025 🎥 A Creator’s Walk at The Forks: Capturing Winnipeg’s Waterfront with the DJI Pocket 3 There’s a rhythm to The Forks that feels both calm and alive — the kind of place that makes you want to walk slower, notice more, and film not for perfection, but for feeling. I went down there on a warm Winnipeg evening with just the DJI Pocket 3 in my hand — no mic, no tripod, no setup, just curiosity and a few open minutes to see what the city looked like thr

DJI Mic 3 Is Coming: What Creators Need to Know About the Tiny Powerhouse Wireless Mic
DJI Mic 3 Is Coming: What Creators Need to Know About the Tiny Powerhouse Wireless When DJI dropped the Mic 3 , I didn’t hesitate — I bought it right away. I’ve owned the Mic 2 , loved it, and used it constantly, but I’ve always wanted something smaller, smarter, and ready for unpredictable moments. When you film the way I do — biking through trails, shooting handheld with the Pocket 3 , or capturing voices in windy, outdoor scenes — every gram, every clip, every second of ba

Last updated: July 6, 2025 🎥 Riding Shotgun in 4K: Passenger-Side Car Footage with the DJI Action 5 Pro There’s something hypnotic about the rhythm of the road — the faint hum of tires on asphalt, sunlight flickering between buildings, reflections flashing like memories. That’s why I keep the DJI Action 5 Pro close. It’s my travel companion, my steady witness when the city starts to move in ways words can’t describe.

🎥 One Lens, One Location, Infinite Shots: The Art of Mastering Limits in 2025 There’s a strange freedom in doing less. In a world where creators juggle drones, 8K action cams, AI editing apps, and endless “better” upgrades, I’ve started to find my best work hiding inside my own limits. This challenge — one lens, one location — started as an experiment. I left all my backup gear at home, grabbed my DJI Action 5 Pro , set it to Wide 4K60 , and picked one spot: a small park be

The Creator Reset Day: How One Day Off Can Reignite Your Passion, Improve Your Workflow, and Future-Proof Your Creative Mind
🎥 The Creator Reset Day: How One Day Off Can Reignite Your Passion, Improve Your Workflow, and Future-Proof Your Creative Mind I’ve learned the hard way that burnout doesn’t happen all at once — it creeps in slowly, disguised as productivity. You keep pushing, keep editing, keep filming. You tell yourself, “just one more upload,” and suddenly your inspiration feels like a drained battery. That’s when I realized: creators don’t just need better gear — we need better rhythms .

The Rise of Vertical Filmmaking in 2025: Why Creators Are Ditching Landscape
🎥 The Rise of Vertical Filmmaking in 2025: Why Creators Are Ditching Landscape It’s funny how the world tilts — literally. For decades, everything I shot was in landscape. From wide drone shots of The Forks to time-lapses on the Winnipeg bridge, I always thought that was how stories were meant to be told. But somewhere between TikTok and YouTube Shorts, the creative world turned vertical — and I started to realize… it actually works. The first time I shot vertically, it felt

How to Capture Cinematic Bike Rides with an Action Camera (2025 Guide) There’s something sacred about the first push of the pedal — that quiet resistance, that rush of air, that moment where you leave stillness behind. Every ride feels like a reset button for me.
