Half Speed Adventures is a series about easy adventures in the great outdoors in beautiful Nova Scotia while taking your time to see it all.

​

It’s about experiencing the places between here and there on a bike, in a kayak, or on your own two feet.

 

Shot using five cameras, drones, and natural sound, Half Speed Adventures gives the viewer an immersive experience of joining along.

This was inspired by the Slow TV movement coming out of Norway. Nova Scotia is a beautiful place and offers a variety of fun activities. By incorporating multiple cameras and a drone in a real time experience, we wanted to somehow bring our audience into these places as if they were actually there.

 

Using DJI action cameras offered a large variety of challenges such as where to place the cameras, how to protect the cameras, and how to hide the cameras from the audience. Our hiking episodes offered the added challenge of how to minimize bobbing of the cameras.  

 

Technology advanced drastically between season 1 and 3 to offer a much more stable experience. Overall I think we succeeded in our goals and hopefully the audience thinks so too.
