Music video industry workhorses. Here on a shoot for rapper Yung Berg's "Private Dancer" music video in Fort Lauderdale. Filming on Canon Titanium and PL mounted EPICs.

arse kicking setups... so simple.... so quick...

Im from the old school of shooting panovision cameras, arr's.... but this new way of shooting is such an amazing freedom.

I am old school guy like Mark and just love the small simple setups. I can spend more time lighting and blocking and less time messing with the camera

Most definitely Mark! Thank you for your insightful posts. Soon there will be a time that the term "cinema lens" will hold less and less significance. Albeit I would love to have a few of those new Leica lenses... lol.

Thanks! He's using a battery belt clip with the 2b-1b adapter.

Cinematography is spreading to the fringes and soon will be for everyone... the old ways of 17k heavy tripods/sticks and 6k matte boxes and follow focuses... just is old fashioned. My biggest client now is a 20 year old and I keep meeting more and more younger ones. It's crazy out there... lol.

We still got that setup for the old guard... but I don't push it anymore to clients. It's hard for those things to recuperate their cost or for some segments to even afford them as a premium camera package... a oconnor 2575c is renting for so cheap in our market. I can get $50 a day for a $300 tripod and a 17k tripod system is only making double that. Same with RED Pro Primes... 60 a lens and canon L lenses can rent for about the same price. The next generation will look it as an absurdity.
