I'm trying to film content where the camera is capturing my third person POV, but slightly to the right or left of my body, hovering over on of my shoulders so you can see my backside and also a biti more of what's in front of me without obstructing the view too much. is this possible?

How can I create a body-mounted over-the-shoulder (Third person POV) filming rig?

I’m trying to film vertical 9:16 content with a third-person POV angle. I want the shot to show the back of my head, upper back, and one shoulder while I move around.

Basically like an over-the-shoulder video game camera angle, but in real life.

I’m using a phone. Since I’ll be walking/moving, I need some kind of body-mounted setup rather than a tripod. I was thinking maybe:

  • chest harness or backpack mount
  • extension arm/gooseneck
  • phone clamp or MagSafe mount

Main concerns:

  • stability/shake
  • keeping the framing consistent
  • comfort/wearability
  • not looking ridiculous in public if possible

Has anyone built something like this or know existing rigs/products that solve this well? Example of the angle shown below:

[HIRING] Motion graphics editor for a creative video series — $15-25 per reel

Working on a short form video series where real life is filmed like a video game. Third person POV, holographic HUD overlays, health bars, mission objectives, interaction prompts on screen. Think GTA but it's actually me in real life with a full storyline and character arc.

Starting to film now and looking for someone to handle the overlay integration and editing. Whatever tools you use is fine, I care about the end result not the software.

Paying $15-25 per reel depending on complexity. Full credit on everything published across TikTok, Instagram and YouTube. Revenue share on the table as the channel grows.

If this sounds like something you'd actually enjoy working on DM me and I'll share the full concept.

Looking for UCF motion graphics / video editor student for a unique creative project — portfolio opportunity

Hey UCF

I'm a content creator based in Orlando working on a first-of-its-kind short form video series and I'm looking for a motion graphics editor to join the project.

The concept: real life filmed like a video game. Third person POV, holographic HUD overlays, interactive storylines, viewer-controlled decisions - think GTA meets a live action series. It's genuinely something that hasn't been done before.

What I need:

  • Motion graphics / After Effects experience
  • Ability to animate and integrate HUD overlays onto video footage
  • Comfortable editing short form vertical content (reels, TikToks, Shorts)

What you get:

  • Real published content across TikTok, Instagram and YouTube for your portfolio
  • A unique project that stands out from typical student work
  • Potential revenue share as the channel grows

This is unpaid to start but the project has serious growth potential and I'm committed to making it worth your time as things take off.

If you're interested or want to see more about the concept DM me. Would love to find someone who's genuinely excited about it, and we can have a zoom to learn more/intros.
