Shooting low to the ground, EPIC sunset shots.

Here’s a great post on how to do this.
I fixed the iMovie / Spark "Jittery" Video issue ! (when panning)

I tried doing some low to the ground dolly shots during a beautiful sunset at the beach! Most shots were done around 1-3 feet off the ground.

I did a tiny bit of color grading in iMovie but the dramatic effects are achieved by shooting in manual mode on the spark. I just closed the shutter a bit and boom fire in the sky!!!

Have you done any flying that low with active track on? I want to take video and photos of my kids playing but I want it at their level. I haven't been able to get an answer from anyone about this. I have a feeling when active track goes active it flys back and up a bit.

Great sunset video and some good feedback info on this subject,,

When moving sideways I see the footage stutter a bit. Wonder if that’s unavoidable due to the 2 axis gimbal and/or electronic stabilization, or something else?

you see the stutter when you are doing a yaw command usually but a full sideways strafe should be as smooth as forwards.. it look like it could be an issues with fps as the scene that speeds up from a strafe gets smooth right before it gets fast.
