GOPRO’S HERO 5 — with Cody Cepeda

Cody Cepeda tries out the new GoPro HERO5—a waterproof, voice-controlled thing of beauty that makes it easier than ever to document all the radness. Cody is a great example of the destiny that awaits those who are ambitious enough to grab a GoPro and put themselves out there. Over the years, his footage has spoken for itself, and now he is a Joe no mo’. 

GoPro’s HERO5 Black and HERO5 Session are part of an overall plan for end-to-end storytelling (capturing, editing, and sharing content) a swift and easy experience for aspiring videographers. 

The all-new HERO5 line can auto-upload photos and videos to their game-changing cloud-based service, GoPro Plus. You can use GoPro Plus to access, edit, and share any of your content (you just need a phone or computer). GoPro Plus is being offered as a free trial, starting October 2nd ($4.99 a month after that period), and it definitely seems like an indispensable time-saver.
