  • reverse steadicam??? one man crew….

    hi guys,
    I saw a travel doco a while ago where the guy had a steadicam like device for shooting himself. It looked like a steady cam, and it looked counterbalanced….Basically so that he could shoot himself talking to camera..

    Anyone know what I am talking about? and could point me towards a website or anything?

    Cheers

    Yeah, it is possible to articulate the arm out far enough to shoot yourself,
    sort of speak. Did he have his hands free, or was he holding an arm?
    He could have had the man-cam on.

    check out Geo Camera in LA. Might have this setup.
