Leili & Kevin are the founders of Supakit, but in a previous life worked in the wonderful world of videography – giving them the perfect insight into sharing how we can improve the videos we take of our cats while catexploring!
They share how to take an interesting video of your cat and how to create a story with that video. We also chat about when to use a video or a photograph to capture a moment, what to do when your cat runs out of the video and how to avoid taking shaky videos.
