Boom Bosh Thomas you should teach business class ! Fair play to you.

Hey Ed Who is the steadicam op at your production company and how experianced are they ? I'd say you might be aiming a little high for an out of London production company but high is good if your clients are happy. Do you have a steadicam reel yet ? Good luck -Matt

Brian I applaud you on your open attitued and showing early footage with your system. One thing I would say is try to take a step back and not get so attached to your design. It obviously has potential I think yes it would be possible to get some beautiful shots with it. However as some people have pointed out already the lack of automation will definatly hurt performance as well as put people off buying the product. Imagine running full speed around corners backwards, going low to high and tilting all at the same time could be quite dangerus. Yes your system is good as you know, but is it so good that people just can't afford to not have it ? Top steadicam opps are not skin filnts and will pay out gladly for a class product. I can see you like to cater for budget minded customer and this is greate, something the big compaines should look closer at ! I'd just love to see you take this concept further as i'm sure you will. Keep up the good work. PS If you ever need a beta tester I (and many others) would be honored to help.

So it's been out a while now can anybody give a review of the arm ? -matt

Approx. USD 3500.- Brian Wow nice !

Indeed Brain I see your point and it is a good one. I think the perfect system would have auto leveling with a manual overide similar to the AR but without the canter axis. Then where talking big budget and it's not so fun anymore. What price point are you heading for the 360 ? -matt

It then starts to swing. And it's realy cool to beable to tilt the camera in the desired position. Hey Brian, I was thinking more of a pully system like on some budget jibs could be a practical solution and would have zero swing. In practice i'm sure it's not this simple i'm just thinking out load really. Tilting with a remote just seems like it could leave quite a bit of room for error, but then again maybe just something else to master. -matt

Would it not be possible to have the camera fixed by gravity so their would be no need to tilt by remote ? -matt

Would be nice to try it ! Anybody got any experiance with the new actioncam system ? -matt

Looking good Mikko :rolleyes: Did you have chance to try it in low mode ? -matt

(Estoy apesadumbrado... pero no puedo transalte también....) Hi Amando, en épocas como esto usted tiene que pensar lo que quisiera su más lejano que usted hiciera. Él está todavía con usted tiene gusto de mi más lejano quién pasó cuando era adolescente. Subsistencia fuerte. -Matt

I've gota say when I had my flyer, 2 PAG L95's were spot on. one batt for small cams and 2 for bigger setups. Customer service is instant and reliable, being based in the UK is a big plus also. What ever you choose have fun and fly safe. Seya around, -Matt

Dam thats a sweet shot, how the hell did you get the opening window shot ? -matt

Fantastic :lol: You can tell he's miming though. -matt

Welcome Katie, How Long do you think you have until this feature, and do you have any infomation about it ? You have come to the right place for advice and i'm sure you will get addicted (if not already) just like the rest of us here. It's greate to have a female voice around here for a change. -matt :D

Your the man Robin :D I'm sure any of your students will attest to that ! -matt

Yeah Ben your just too green to have an opinion mate you better just keep quite ! OMFG PS loved your work on the gumball mate, Gez kept txting me when it was on. Herd so many stories from that trip when in Berlin on the XBOX job :lol:

nice work

Hey Guys, Thanks for the advice, a new reel is definatly in order (just gota keep pestering for that footage I guess). I've recently started turning down low budget anythings and although it's not getting me work at present I don't feel like i'm wasting my time as much. Anybody got any specific tips on sending out reels to the right places etc. Cheers. -matt PS heres a link to my last ever low budget music video i'm working on (I hope). The video

Why Lynn is not posting hear ?

The website says it's a spring arm ? -matt

I'm a big fan of the kamio, you can be in a pitch black room and still only kast the softest of shadows if any.

:unsure: I seem to be stuck in a rut at present ! All i'm doing is music videos that lead onto other music videos and so on. Has anybody got any advice for me i'm just not sure what to do at the moment. Cheers -matt :unsure:

How do you rate Litepanels against the kinoflo camio ? -matt

Afton I respect you opinion and perhaps this is not the place to discus this topic, a 24 pack and some good music definitely is ;) I just wanted to post this thread as a heads up of sorts to the most credible argument to goverment sponsored terror I have ever seen ! Respect brother.
