Reporting with a selfie stick


If you know me you know I'm a cycling and mobile reporting enthusiast. I even run a GoPro camera (on a K-Edge mount) for most of my bike rides. Last spring I saw my worlds come together when some guy on a bicycle was interviewing commuters at Grand Central Terminal. He had mounted on his bike GoPros, a DSLR, and a microphone. This is not for everyone, but it shows just how mobile you can go, using mobile phones or GoPros.

Even a selfie stick can be used to help you report. This fellow takes it to extremes, but he does provide some ideas of what equipment to look for when building your kit. His recommendations are listed below the video.
