    Cinematography & STEADICAM DUH!!! Within this section are sample shoots on what steadicam is and how it has changed the way we look at cinematography,movie making and watching. Putting MOTION in pictures. Below: The MK-V AR System is the evolution of camera stabilization. Go from high to low mode in one shot, and every-where in between.This system makes shots that could not be done before a reality. The Alien Revolution or the AR

    Below : "Multi-story Fight", by Somsak Srisawat. Tom Yum Goong AKA the American title "The Protector." This is an amazing shot. It is almost 4 minutes of steady tracking, circling, climbing stairs, following intense fighting, and virtually every other technique available. Shot in 1 take really shows what can be done with the right rehearsal, coordination, and organization....and a little bit of luck. "Multi-story Fight", By Somsak Srisawat

I'm a Steadicam Owner/Operator and DP and I LOVE WHAT I DO. I operate on 29.997, sometimes 24p occasionally 1080 but not yet 24. This is my passion making what is on paper, visually organic. I love the smell of Tungsten in the morning!!!! Camera Ops Motto: WE SEE IT FIRST!!!! Besides the technical aspect of my life, I'm a very approachable to talk to. Theres allot more about me but I'll leave that to those you are truly interested on what I DO WHAT I DO WHAT I DO WHAT I DO and HOW I DO IT. I LOVE MY TRADE !! As if you couldn't tell. LOL THIS IS MY 2nd SHORT FORM REEL.

Add to My Profile | More Videos Below: Steadicam by David Chameides. This is an example that was shown on the 1997 Emmy awards on how steadicam works. Very few things affirm an operator's success, more than a feature mention at the Emmy Awards. Anthony Edwards introduces Chameides and then presents a quick behind-the-scenes featurette of the steadicam's contribution to ER. Featuring the Steadicam By David Chameides

Add to My Profile | More Videos Below: The steadicam oner, by Terence Nightingale is a great little feature on the "oner" from the set of "ER". The clip features operator, Nightingale as he and the crew deal with a very fast paced shooting environment. It is interesting to hear some of the actors comments on shooting with the steadicam. a>

Add to My Profile | More Videos Below: "First Contact", by Mark O'Kane. A great fast-paced shot following Jodi Foster out of her car, and into command central as she hears the signal from space for the first time. This is actually the blending of two separate shots, the exteriors and interiors being completely different locations. There is also a small crane step-off at the very beginning.

Add to My Profile | More Videos FPS Sequence, by Alf Tramontin. Below: A very interesting shot to watch. The film, obviously based on the video game, has successfully replicated the POV feel of the game. Some of the creature effects, as well as the gun are CG, but the movement through the set is practical Steadicam. FPS Sequence, By Alf Tramontin Steadicam Operator

Add to My Profile | More Videos "Steadicam, Paris Workshop Video" A fun little video to watch containing some highlights from the Paris International Workshop. Although the cuts happen quickly, if you have ever taken a workshop, you can tell immediately what drill is being exercised.

Who I'd like to meet:

Garrett Brown. The inventor and the pioneer on what steadicam is today and where it can from. Other like minded people like myself or others who are and would like to venture down this path called production. I LOVE IT!!! Other DP's,Camera Ops,and Steadicam Ops. "Birth of the Steadicam" Bound for Glory by Garrett Brown. Probably the most famous Steadicam shot in history. Not for its precision, or execution, but it's place in Steadicam history. "Bound for Glory" is the first film to ever use the new tool. At the time, the Steadicam was nothing more than a makeshift sled and vest, with a Luxo Lamp arm. The shot, however, still has many of the key elements necessary to make a great shot even by today's standards. This proves how much of great Steadicam operation is reliant upon the operator alone, not the equipment. "Bound for Glory", By Garrett Brown
