Help MassBike Train Police Officers
Written by Boston Biker on Nov 05This is amazing, and highly useful, way to go MassBike!
——————-
We’re Crowdsourcing The State!
Help us capture the best of Massachusetts biking in video! MassBike is in the midst of producing a new police training video, working with the Boston Police Department and several other police departments. We’ve been busy filming the actual training scenarios, but we could use some help from every corner of Massachusetts to lend a statewide flavor to the production. We want ocean, mountains, historic buildings, and more recognizable Massachusetts places.
What we need:
- Very short video clips of bicyclists passing iconic places all over MA
- More short clips of cyclists passing the “Entering …” signs outside Massachusetts cities and towns
- Shots can be first-person (on-bike) or third-person perspective
Technical specs: We’re using GoPro 1080p, 60fps, medium FOV. Try to keep each clip to no more than 10-15 seconds.
How to get involved: Email [email protected] and let me know what you plan to shoot. We’ll figure out the best way to get the files to us.
We can’t promise we’ll use everyone’s clips, but if we do we’ll credit you in the training video!
