Walking Reset

An educational read of how you move, from a short walking video and four photos. It is not a diagnosis and not medical care.

Before you film

Film in a private space, barefoot, with nobody else in frame. Put the camera at hip height, three to five metres away.

  1. Camera at hip height. Stand the phone on a stack of books. On the floor it films your shins and cuts your head off.
  2. Three to five metres of clear path. Far enough back that your whole body fits on the screen with room to spare.
  3. A plain wall behind you. Barefoot, in a private space, with nobody else in the room.
  4. One take, three passes. Walk towards the camera, then away from it, then straight across it. Do not stop the recording between passes.
Hip height is the whole trick. Raising the lens does not make you smaller in the frame — it moves the frame up your body. From the floor, most of the clip is legs.

What makes footage unusable

  • Walking out of the frame
  • Filming in a dim room
  • A finger over the lens
  • A second person in shot
