This is why new Ops in a workshop don't see an image for a few days. You have to start to have the first inklings of what the PROCESS is, before you can think about framing.

 

I've been lucky enough to sit on a dolly that Wil Arnot was pushing or pulling. I'm here to tell you that he almost never missed his timing.

 

Almost. :P

 

As for the focus puller with a monitor, I remember the first HiDef job I shot. My assistant wasn't anywhere NEAR me. He was with the monitor, turned sideways so he could SEE me from above, and watch me move and see my shot very clearly. His zen was astonishing, the boy only buzzed me once in 3 days of long hours of shooting at shallow depths of field. A monitor does have its place, but...... as Larry and others have said, it must feel right.

 

Feel right......
