Let me set the stage
Music video with two kids running full steam. We were up in a canyon in Malibu. The ground was dirt and rock and uneven. First shot was a preceding shot which went very well. We then turned around for a shot following the two kids. Of course I don't need a spotter I say. Camera rolls and action, the kids bolt. I take two steps the second one landing on a loose rock and my rig jets out in front of me and down I go, head first. It happened very very fast, yet I said to myself on the way down "Wow it finally happened to me.
Damage report:
Body- cuts, bruises, headache, sore back, sore neck. I think I'll make it.
Camera- no damage except for a filter
Rig- :( I don't know the full report but it's not good.
Tomorrow begins the insurance circus ( Can't wait) Good thing I have Erwin to talk to!
I'll let you know how it goes
