don't most people have dynamic ips?
I technically have a dynamic IP but my IP address has not changed in nearly 3 years.
I live in a city with 500,000 residents.
But to answer op's question, technically yes. You would be committing a crime to share your videos to a friend even if it's only one friend.
However, should you do something like set up a VPN for your friend so that the communications between your home network and their home network are completely encrypted, it is highly unlikely that you will ever be caught or punished for the crime.
You should check your router to see if it offers a VPN generation function. My Netgear router allows me to VPN into my home network from any openvpn endpoint with the appropriate certificate installed, and the process is quite simple.
Having said that, I am not a lawyer, and if I were a lawyer I would not be your lawyer, so do not take my words as any form of incentive or instructions to actually convince you to commit a crime. You must rely on your own best judgment and act in your own best interests before doing anything that is legally shady.

Doesn't matter really. If you use something like cloudflare and a domain name. You have programs like DDNS-updater that can update all the A records as soon as your IP changes.
