Premium Members Victor Lazaro Posted November 8, 2012 Premium Members Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Which got me to think. Was there any situation where you would switch your arm side? Is it worth training in both ways? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabian Meller Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 (edited) Well in my little 3 years experience there were 2 situations I actually did switch to goofy. Unfortunately I'm way too used to regular so that goofy feels very strange - so I now sometimes switch at home and practice. One situation I switched was the following: The character was sitting and the camera was supposed to start behind his left shoulder and move straight in over his shoulder. It was low mode btw... Had I not switched I would not have been able to continue the movement since the actor would have been in my way... Sure I could have walked Don Juan backwards but as it was only a straight move with no big headroom changes I rehearsed it a few times and it worked out pretty well! The other shot I switched to right side operating was also a straight move on the left edge over a table. There were no framing changes as well so it was no big deal.
