Hello all, I just wanted to stop by and say hello. I've been following the Forum and reading different posts for a while now and decided it was time to come out of hiding and introduce my self. Im currently attending a film school in LA and have gained an appreciation for the art of Steadicam. I have been learning on a Glidecam V-16 ( i know eww) But I have been able to work with the steadicam flyer and pilot. While at my school I was able to Meet Charles Papert and He was gracious enough to let me PA for him at the last Masters Class. It was a great learning experience. I got to meet a few other awesome operators like David Allen Grove, and Brian Freesh. Thanks to Brian Freesh for teaching me and guiding me through the new stages of Operating. Thanks for letting me be apart of the community. Kyle Harbour

My school has one of those. I have taught myself how to use it and have used it on a few films shoots at school. I would say buy a Steadicam brand. Its a pain in the but using that system. anytime you want to take the camera off of the Sled you have to take a Allan wrench and unscrew the whole thing to take the camera off and the screw it back on and get it balanced. It really takes a lot of time.

Happy Birthday Charles. February is the best month!

I would one day love to be a steady cam operator. Is there anyway I can can come and help out and learn?? I'm around Culver City Marina del rey right now. thanks
