AICE Media Film Opening - 'Doppelganger' - Behind the Scenes Tools?

A big worry of mine has honestly been whether or not I was capable of actually filming this. Yes, that could be interpreted in many many ways, and many of those ways do align with my worries. However, what I mean in this particular instance is my ability to literally film. Take this video I took a week or so ago on my phone as an example. 

Despite the video being a silly draft attempt at showcasing my 'adventures' in England, it brings to light just how terrible I am at holding the camera still. I am well aware that a 'hand held' element can sometimes be useful to my film, but my shakie hands take things a bit too far. Even in the video itself, half way through my girlfriend grabbed my phone to better record, and you can notice the clear difference in our ability to hold a camera.

But this isn't my girlfriend's project. And so I brought on a little bit of extra help.

I bought a convertible tripod // 'selfie stick'!! I feel that this will be the perfect tool to not only help with my horrible shakie grip, but overall in establishing still shots where they otherwise wouldn't be possible.
