and what they actually need is a cutter or video graphic artist and some understanding of video recording. The TussyInc fraction all into fast fashion and the posh lifestyle in all perfect looks uses high definition cams of which some like Sony even have dedicated camera series. They most of the time use a fixed cam position by using a stand and you find yourself as a grown man watching a way too young for you women tidying up her livingroom. Tuché, to walk with her through her closet and all in one angle. All other shots from their most favorite venues like restaurants and beaches and girls night out are shot by just holding the cam in hand and you get like a good daddy an idea that their lives are all fine......puhhh...the lousiest excuse....
Than there are the GoPro guys that mount a same quality, but way smaller cam to a helmet or have a drone follow creating follow up videos instead of hand held or fixed position footage.
When we started with undergound skate videos that later were stolen and sold by The Thrasher Mag, Rodney Mullen is no white boy, we were quite creative using only VHS cam and recorder and am RPG (red, purple, green) colour spliter to manipulate the vids taken by either a fixed cam or another skater following the run. Until today colours can be defined by changing the three values of RPG in many software systems and visualisation languages.
Today, there are plenty more options than a cam to play, a splitter, a monitor and a recorder and repeat the process going all LA baby, if you have two players into one recorder while never leaving the Hell's Kitchen The Valley. Ice Ice baby....
You can use several body cams like Police do and a handheld one, have a drone that follows you ontop and use even free until profit made open source software like the Open Shot Video editor on Source Forge to combine several video tracks with at least simple effects and having recorded the audio by another hardware to create high quality videos from simple vlogs to MoMa ready material of art, with unlimted possibilites of creative excess, if you manage to get into Blender deeply and can afford high end hardware.
But a camera man, that must be a realy good friend in desperate need of some cash....
