  • On Monday, August 21, 2017, a total solar eclipse, frequently referred to as the "Great American Eclipse", was visible within a band across the entire contiguous United States, passing from the Pacific to the Atlantic. For exactly 2 minutes and 31 seconds the moon completely blocked out the sun, creating a darkness that was unforgettable and a connection to the universe that you have to see to believe.

    I personally do not need a new GoPro... but I would love to give it to my sister! She's going to be a freshman in college and is a straight A student. She's going to a new state, new school, different environment so I told her I would work on getting her one to document her new experiences and her making new friends! Loved the video Chris! Keep me coming! Been a fan since the Abe/Chris USC FIlm School edits

    Hey there. You're one of the person on earth who influences me more than anyone else. I am an aspiring photographer and filmography. I was completely off the track couple of years ago. Kept doing things the world wanted me to do. But then I discovered you. And you certainly gave me the spirit to work and chase my dreams. This video of yours made me realise that no dream is hard enough that can't be made reality. I so want you to keep making videos and keep inspiring people around you. You're not only a content creator but a lot more. You're certainly god.
    Love you sooooo much.

    If I could have been anywhere during the eclipse it would have been right in the heli! The reason I would love a GoPro is to make a variety of videos. From helping my friend start a music career to capturing the light beaming glow inside a slot canyon. The video of a GoPro is so sharp and clear that I want to show the creativity of people around me as well as the insane world we live in!
    Thanks for inspiring myself and many others with your videos!

  • @LandonDanielle16

    The emotions felt just through this video is unreal, I can only image what it would have been like in the moment. I skydive as well and sadly the clouds and storms rolled in over our drop zone right before totality. Luckily, we were able to find clear skies to experience this surreal moment from the ground.
    I would love to win a GoPro because I live for moments that aren't able to be put into words, such as the moment you captured. Some people are too scared to go and live that adventurous life they have been wanting to live. So being able to see my point of view from a GoPro lens will hopefully help build that confidence in someone to go out and do what fear has stopped them from doing and to get out of their comfort zone! Adventures such as skydiving actually saved me.. but all it took was the vibes that were felt from a good GoPro video to get me out to the DZ for the first time.
    I aspire to be a videographer for tandems. This is a dream of mine because I'm able to capture a first time skydivers reaction of this new world they are about to enter. The look of uncertainty for what is yet to come, the anticipation on the ride to altitude, the fear on exit changing within a split second to freedom in free fall, to even being there to capture the expression on their faces as they've touched land once more. For the time being, having my first very own GoPro would be the start of me becoming a great videographer by working on my editing skills in advance. Even learning how to pick music to add to make the video feel how I felt in that exact moment and making the footage personal for each tandem student. Blue skies!

  • @jordandunngopro
    @jordandunngopro Před 7 lety

    After experiencing the eclipse in person, I didn't think it was possible to capture the emotion of the moment, but this took me back and gave me chills and tears all over again. Thank you! Definitely wouldn't mind having a new GoPro, my 2 old GoPro 3s are starting to have wear and tear.

    Such an awesome video dude! I hope one day I can have an experience like that. I saw that you were giving away a GoPro on your instagram and the reason why I would like to have that is to open up the quality of my videos. I got my first camera which was a GoPro in 2015 and didn't know what I was doing at all with it. I've always been around extreme sports my entire life, racing bmx and motocross from 4 years old until I was 18. I'm now 22 years old and I started getting into video around the time I had gotten my GoPro. My love for extreme sports has never left me and I'm still trying to capture those moments. I'm working on my skydiving certification right now and hopefully will be finished next week. When I started video GoPro is who I wanted to work for, it pushed me to become the videographer and editor I am today. I hope to one day I'm able meet you and maybe one day work with you and the GoPro team.
