Premium Members Chris Poynton Posted August 23, 2012 Premium Members Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 I heartily encourage ops to ocassionally report back to the forum on any especially interesting or challenging shots they have recently executed ... especially those that challenge the outer limits of skill and subtlety. Maybe the discovery of some wonderful framing concept you latched on to? Or a great "zone" you got into mentally and emotionally while shooting? (Such reports from the front really keep us "sideline enthusiasts" and hobbyists fired up!) A great report back came from Charles Papert many moons ago on another forum which he titled "The Single Hardest move with a Steadicam". [i have flagged this one before, but it is a fantastic read for those who haven't come across it ... tilting, panning, arcing and dancing around Tommy Lee Jones in a hospital corridor with choreographed gurneys during "The Valley of Elah' (2007)] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Eric Fletcher S.O.C. Posted August 23, 2012 Premium Members Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Here's two mins of what I've been doing since May Lot's of steadicam, handheld and dolly work. There is a 135mm rounding on Jennifer Carpenter in this. Click Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Members Joel San Juan Posted August 23, 2012 Premium Members Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Hi Chris, Here's a clip from a recent project that was really challenging because of the really small space and moving through the variety of shot sizes with sharp whip pans that were just barely inches from my batteries hitting things around me. Fully decked out RED MX. The sequence starts 0:38 - 2:20. the 'travelling dish' in the middle of the sequence was done on a seperate handheld rig. Cheers Joel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
