What is the title of the photo or video you have chosen to analyse (can you provide a link?)
The title of the video that I have chosen is Backies for dayz !
With the photo or video, you are examining when was it produced (date)?
This video was produced March 2019 for Oakley week at Mammoth Mountain, California, USA
How was the photo or video authored?
This video was authored using a GoPro fusion. The GoPro fusion is the first true 360 action camera as it has two ultra-wide lenses. The size and technology in the fusion make it ideal for capturing extreme sport. Abe also had to ride the snowboard as GoPro photography requires the photographer to be the subject or to follow the subject in extreme situation.
He then would have used some sort of video editing software to edit the video before he posted in on Instagram. As the video looks professionally edited
How was the photo or video published?
The video backies for days was published on 20th of March 2019 on Abe Kislevitz Instagram account (@abekislevitz). It wasn’t published on his YouTube, Facebook or personal website. This could have possibly been shared on another person story or on his own Instagram story. As his post are usually shared on his story
All of his posts are sponsored by GoPro so this was published on behalf of GoPro
How was the photo or video distributed?
As this was only been disturbed on Instagram I can only see that 27,616 people. He has a 2-4 month break between his YouTube videos so maybe this video will be Disturbed on Youtube at a later time in a compilation. Abe’s average engagement for the post are pretty low at 2.58%, it is still 2k+ people as he has 111k followers.
