Video
Making a great video
A short, well-shot and well-edited video shows off your kit better than any photo. Here are the 4 key habits.
Your phone is enough
A recent smartphone does the job very well. Move slowly with your upper body: slow approach, sideways tracking shot, a walk around the bike.
Pick the right music
It sets the rhythm and the emotion. Energetic for action, calmer for a ride.
Polish the edit
Keep the best shots, cut on the beat of the music, without too many effects. CapCut is simple and free: watch the tutorial.
Photo
Taking great photos
These 4 tips work for your photos, and for your videos too.
Pick the right spot
A simple background, natural or urban. Nothing that steals the eye from your bike: cars, bins, passers-by.
Play with the light
Sunrise and sunset give the best light. Indoors, place the bike near a window.
Capture the details
Get close: textures, logos, reflections, numbers. Several close-up photos beat a single one from afar.
Vary the angles
Crouching, from above, front-on, three-quarter, by drone. A series with several angles instantly looks more pro.
Holo, chrome, glitter
Let the reflections dance
- In full sun, glitter and holographic finishes light up. Walk slowly around the bike to make the colors shift.
- At night, a flash or a torch pointed at the kit gives a wow effect.
- Chrome reflects everything: pick a clean setting, it will show in your graphics.
