Insta360 + Drums: reframing experiment
ENG
Sharing a quick experiment today: a video shot on Insta360 while I’m improvising a very simple drum pattern. The goal wasn’t to create a “perfect clip”, but to test how much 360 tech can change the way you capture and tell a performance.
It’s my first real dive into 360 cameras and I have to say: it’s amazing. Being able to choose different angles after recording (through reframing in post) opens up a lot of creative options—especially for music content.
The edit is intentionally over the top and very dynamic. It’s mainly meant to showcase what you can do in post, and how quickly you can get results once you understand the workflow.
Let me know in the comments: do you prefer cleaner/stable shots, or more dynamic edits that highlight motion and fast camera changes?

Oggi vi condivido un piccolo esperimento: un video girato con Insta360 mentre improvviso un pattern molto semplice alla batteria. L’idea non era “fare il clip perfetto”, ma capire sul campo quanto questa tecnologia cambi davvero il modo di riprendere e raccontare una performance.
È la prima volta che mi avvicino seriamente al mondo 360 e devo dirlo: è meraviglioso. Le prospettive che puoi scegliere dopo, in editing, aprono un sacco di possibilità creative, soprattutto per chi fa contenuti musicali.
Il montaggio qui è volutamente esagerato e super movimentato: serve più che altro a mostrare cosa si può tirare fuori in post produzione. La cosa che mi ha sorpreso di più è quanto è veloce il workflow di editing, una volta capito il meccanismo.
Fatemi sapere nei commenti: preferite clip più “pulite” e stabili, oppure video dinamici che enfatizzano movimenti e cambi di camera?

It's clever stuff, but can be over-used. I was trying to check out your kit, but the camera kept moving, so I had to pause it. That's a nice space to play.
BTW I think we were not too far from you when we spent new year in Venice.
I hope this is a good year for you (and Hive!).

Yes, of course—the movement is exaggerated, and I did that on purpose during editing to understand the potential of 360. It really feels like having a drone…
The year has started pretty well, I’m just a bit tired because I haven’t taken any breaks.
Were you in Venice? That’s wonderful!!!! So yours has started off great!
Venice was fun and probably not changed much from when I visited as a kid. We did a nice trip around Europe by train.
Marvellous!
