Good friends of mine and band Colour My Queen got me on board to do a run and gun music video for their song “Grin and Forebear It”. The entire thing was shot on a Canon T2i with a Sigma 30mm 1.4 lens and a Vari ND.
Night before prep
Some issues I ran into when shooting “When we are together” was stabilization of the camera and I wanted that hand held look for this project as well, but I still haven’t settled on a rig to build for myself. My solution to this problem was to take a cheap tripod, shorten the legs, and take two of them and positioning them around my hip bones. Along with a Z-finder and two hands on the camera this allowed me to have 5 points of contact to stabilize my footage just enough to be clean yet still hand held feel.
