GoPole Base

Project Description

Capturing that cool moment on the go, or setting it down at the right moment; that’s what the base was designed for. A tripod / handle combo that quickly and seamlessly transitions states to help you capture the moment; sequence; time in space.

Role

Lead Designer

Capturing an active life

Not just one thing

The Base was designed to fit not only with a GoPro adapter, but designed to work with a variety of other GoPole products, providing you the flexibility and adaptability to get the right shot.

Developing a concept

In 2012, the GoPro camera sales really took off, and our client thrived on creating products that enhanced the experience. While many of the product attached to the body, I was tasked to design a product that replaced a cameraman. 

It was pretty obvious it had to be some kind of tripod. But doing some research we realized that a whole lot of awesome happened in environments where traditional tripods couldn’t go. So we designed a mini tripod (a rarity then).
