"make my underwater footage look guuuud " 😁 - very informative! the selfie swim and the cam on the very bottom looking straight up is my fav angle! Also loving the green hair!

[missmeganisamermaid]

The amount of footage I have of myself winded, treading water with RBF is honestly hilarious 😂 the short, magical clips underwater are worth it!

[MermanMurf]

Yes please make more of these videos they are very beneficial 🧜🏻‍♂️🌊🐬

That was so cool! In "The unflattering clip" you were floating and fixing yourself up, while the only thing the camera saw was you with your tail just floating like it was nothing! It was so cool! 😆

(Thank you so much for this content, Courtney! You bet I want more, my amazing mentor. I want to be your padawan through this process, 😉)

Despite being a permanently land-locked mermaid, this is a great video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I also love the top you’re wearing in the pool shots 💙💙

Love the color streaks in your hair! I always wanted to pick up the suction cup attachment since moving to an area with pool access, but I never got around to it.

This is fin-tastic advice for filming thanks for the new video <3

Great Advice! I'll have to get one of the suction cup mounts now. Also, I LOVE those clear goggles (with the scales on the side?). Can I ask where you got them?

Any tips for filming underwater in the ocean, If I tried sitting my gopro on the bottom it'd float away 😂
