MotoArkansas 2.0

MotoArkansas 2.0

I spent a few days redesigning a new logo. With inspiration from Motul and Yoshimura I used Canva whiteboard to work it out. Next, I will have to rebuild it in Adobe Illustrator so I can have a clean vector file, but I am super happy with the final design.

💡
Design note: When developing a logo start with one color. One color is important for making sure your logo will look good on merchandise, also one color printing is the cheapest and you will not always be able to afford a 4 color printing.

Filming Equipment

I am researching the best equipment for filming my adventures around Arkansas and want solutions that are lightweight, small, and high quality (4k). Due to my motorcycle being a single-cylinder thumper, it vibrates a lot, so mounting cameras on the bike is not an option.

Most motorcycle content is POV or 360 footage, and the rider is talking in his helmet, but I want more. Having worked for Arkasnas Tourism, I know the rides are awesome, but it's the people and stories that make it great. I need riding footage and interview footage with as minimal a setup as possible.

The two cameras I am considering are the Insta360 GO Ultra and the Canon PowerShot V1.

On further research, I looked at another creator I follow for great reviews and the Insta360 Ace Pro 2 may be the one for me.

What makes this interesting to me is using it for photos and the ability to get great audio from the internal mic. The wireless mic for this could also be great to mount inside the helmet.

Next, I looked for some Moto vlogging examples.

Right now, I am leaning toward the Ace Pro 2.

Next Steps

MotorArkansas.com has been a live website for a few years, and I have just not tended to it. I am currently working on redesigning using Ghost.io to make it as clean and easy to use, not only for the end user, but easy for me to post to.

Will also need to get some upgrades to my motorcycle, develop the business plan, and reconnect with my contacts in tourism and the motorcycle industry.
