Field Trip: The Museum Of Black Civilization - Dakar Senegal

The Museum of Black Civilizations, known in French as the Musée des Civilisations noires (MCN), is a 150,000-square-foot, circular structure, modeled after the traditional houses of Senegal’s Casamance region. The opening of the museum is particularly timely given increased discussions about the repatriation of African artifacts looted during colonial times which are currently scattered across museums and private collections in Europe.

Yi Lite Cinematic 4 Tips

The Yi Lite is a little $60 action camera goes with me everywhere. With these 4 tips you get cinematic shots with the Yi Lite.

1. Use a gimbal or small tripod.

2. Shoot in 2K video mode. You can still use EIS while getting great image quality.

3. Walk as stable as you can. Even though the Yi Lite has electronic image stabilization (EIS), you still need to film in a smooth movement. That means your arm, which is holding the camera, has to be as stable as possible and I show you how you exactly how to achieve that.

4. Use in camera transitions and place the camera in interesting places.
