GoPro Cinematic Video – 5.3K Video Footage


GoPro Cinematic Video – 5.3K Video Footage

This GoPro cinematic video was filmed in the Austrian Alps in February 2022 using the GoPro Hero 10 Black.

I filmed the video in 5.3K resolution using the GoPro Cinematic Preset as a basis for my camera settings.

The video footage was edited on the iPad Pro using the LumaFusion video editing app.

To watch the video I have included a link to my YouTube channel, (See below).

Video Settings

Here are the settings I used to film the cinematic video.

  • Resolution: 5.3K
  • Frame Rate: 30 fps
  • Hypersmooth: Standard
  • Bit Rate: High
  • Shutter: 1/30
  • White Balance: 5600K
  • ISO Min: 100
  • ISO Max: 800
  • Sharpness: Medium
  • Color: Natural

Lens Settings

For the majority of the video I filmed using the Linear + Horizon Leveling lens option. The “close up” shots were filmed using a Narrow lens.

The views of the mountains were filmed in Wide lens.

Final Thoughts

Overall I was quite impressed by the Hero 10 in trying to achieve a cinematic style look. Of course the Hero 10 is an action camera so it’s not going to compete with a DSLR in this style of filming.

I hope you enjoy the results of this mini video project. It was a lot of fun to film and edit.

A final note: I have just purchased the new GoPro Hero 11 so I’m looking forward to creating further cinematic videos with the Hero 11.
