About the footcam - I recorded this video using my phone as the main camera (as usual) and wanted to do a footcam for the first time, as I've been working on double kick speed recently and using this song to practise. However, I film drum covers in one take and don't want to play the song multiple times over, using the same camera in different locations. Mainly so that I have one take which is far easier to edit, and also because I think having a true one take video is more authentic and impressive. So for a second camera, I dug up my old GoPro and used this for the footcam. The problem with GoPro's is that you can't see the FOV unless you use the app on your phone to see the preview, and my phone was in the tripod, filming me. So I didn't know until after filming that my camera angle was pretty bad. But I'm using it anyway!

Should I have just put the GoPro in place, used the app to check, then put my phone in the tripod to film? Yes. Why didn't I do that? Because I didn't think of it at the time.

For future covers (except the next one I'm uploading after this), the footcam will be in a better location where you can actually see my right foot. Apologies about this one.
