Premium Members Ryan Brooks Posted December 12, 2013 Premium Members Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 Hello fellow operators- So I have kind of an odd request. I'm trying to a specific shot from a movie and the operator. I've only seen the shot once on the internet and I'm not sure how to find it again. I apologize if there is a better way to search for something like this. This was the best way I could think of after searching the internet. Here is the best description I can give. Its a long oner that covers several floors of a building, which I believe is suppose to be a police department including an elevator and escalator, and finally ends in a morgue looking at a body. It involves two detectives I believe and an older female (Unfortunately I don't remember any of the actors/actresses names). I can remember bits about the shot. Sometimes when they would round a corner the female would walk straight and the detectives would course correct her. There was also a substantial amount of dialogue, mostly from the female actress. That's kind of all I can remember. Any help is appreciated. Looking to add the film to my library. Thanks again. Safe Flying. Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Members Jarrett P. Morgan Posted December 13, 2013 Premium Members Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Just wanted to add:This is my favorite shot ever I think. When in film school I wrote a paper about it. One of the shots that made me want to be a steadicam operator! Be sure to watch the shot commentary from Larry McConkey that is also on SteadiShots. Really great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Victor Lazaro Posted December 13, 2013 Premium Members Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Wow! the commentary is just amazing! http://www.steadishots.org/shots_detail.cfm?shotID=304 I love how elevator throw steadicams around when they start and stop. Had the issue once on a music video. Now I know how to hide it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Louis Puli SOC Posted December 13, 2013 Moderators Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Hi everyone I was at that workshop where Larry spoke about that shot . For me the joy ,the passion in Larry's voice about how he was able to make the shot work not only for the director but also add to the scene is outstanding and not just go through the numbers is what love about this video . Thank you Larry for being so open on your approach to how you did this outstanding shot . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
