NTG3 for indoor? I sold that because my MKH50 did better indoor and outside.
Check the new smallrig np batteries.
PowerExtra batteries have loose ac plugs that will yank out exposing the wires...4 in a row like that...AVOID
good stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Anyone with half decent diy skills can make trekpak at home and for a lot less with more customisation.
Make a video! I’ve seen a couple but they didn’t seem to be quite as solid. Would definitely watch and try it!
Sweet! Another excuse to go to Harbor Freight! Great video and helpful info
Harbor Freight for LIFEEE
Can you make a video about transporting (by plane too) the tripods and light stands too? what kind of cases and how long they are for the planes
Great idea! Honestly I feel like there’s not many great ways to do it, but the flat-rate media baggage pricing is sooo helpful
This is the first video I've seen from you guys. I had no idea you were based here in Omaha! Wow, it's very inspirational. I just subscribed.
@@anthonysherrod7627 thanks for sharing bro! I assume you’re here in Omaha also? Appreciate the kind words ❤️
Incredible production and organization! Gives me some ideas for sure.
Thanks for watching Michael! Glad it is sparking ideas - that’s the goal!
You spend a huge amount on gear. Moisture and fungus are the old time enemy or all photographic gear. Unless you can spend a vast amount of money for a controlled environment, you must preserve your optical gear in a "dry" environment. It can be as simple to "not let them be on display for your clientele", and to keep them in an air tight case full of Silica Gel. It is not just the Sensor your must protect. The circuity and metals of your gear must be protected from the outside world. If your rental house does not have it, or enforce it on you as a customer, then don't hire it.
Hey Kevin! Thanks for the input. We have never had issues with fungus or moisture - our equipment is stored in a relatively climate-controlled area in airtight Pelican cases. We also don’t live in a metro with great rental house options, so we tend to buy over rent and pass those rental fees along to our clients.
With all due respect, small correction - the 1510 is not the biggest size airlines will allow for carry on, the 1535 is their biggest airline suitable case
Thanks for watching, and for the feedback! I should have mentioned the 1535, but the 1510 and 1535 are nearly identical in dimensions. The 1535 is essentially the “Air” equivalent to the 1510.
Gear organization is so important. I had a week of travel with 8 interviews with unique locations and set ups. It hit me how much I need to focus on and prioritize efficient organization. On set minutes count!
Couldn’t have said it better myself! Thanks for watching!
Hey, thank you very much for this video! We are a small production company in the Uk and we are looking to buy one of these carts. Super interesting
@@burnttreestudios4797 of course!! Here to help 😊
I absolutely love the way you broke it down to three levels. I've used a Pelican and a Nanuk and found myself constantly swap things out, but now I've been approaching productions in a tier system and really enjoyed watching your take on it. Subscribed for more videos like this!
Glad it helped! We love the tier system too, definitely made our lives a lot easier!
If you get. media pass, you check over sized bags at a flat rate
@@Marcus_Visbal yep just did this for the first time last week. You can actually create your own media passes, we just designed them and laminated them and they worked just great.
I have had to check my peli 1535 (smaller by a bit) under a plane on 2 occasions to small airports in Virginia and Durango Colorado. I had it loaded with lithium ion batteries and they made me hold them in my lap. Tried all the tricks and it didn’t work. Even checked on one of them and it did in fact not fit overhead. So be mindful of how big the plane is going to be. It was a pain for sure. I have started to add camera bodies and glass to backpacks just to be safe for travel gigs
We actually literally had our first experience of an overhead bin being too small last week after posting this haha. We had even flown into this extremely small airport before and not had issues, but the bins were smaller this time. We ended up strapping one of them into an empty seat, and shoving the other under the seat in front of us and putting our feet on top of it. The stewardess wasn’t stoked about it but I told her there was NO WAY we could check them. I guess the play would be having an even smaller carry-on case if you KNOW you’re going to a super small airport, and keeping batteries and the absolute essentials in there. But you live and you learn I suppose lol
We recently picked up an Inovativ while it was on sale, almost got this Proaim cart! Seems like client production-wise we’re at very similar levels. Also talked about starting a channel like this many times, Subscribed! Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the feedback! Inovativ is def the better option if it’s in the budget. Would love to pick one up eventually, but for now our ProAim gets the job done!
Maybe cut your gear by 75%
@@sammorganmoore why?
@@Gloryvisuals Ive never seen so many bits. you are drowning in bits :)
@@sammorganmoore I'm so confused lol. Care to explain what you mean?
@@Gloryvisuals I dont need free advice on organising my gear. Im giving you some free advice. Leave 75% of your gear at home :)
@@sammorganmoore thanks for that - but this is simply terrible advice lol. We bring (and charge the client for) the gear needed to execute the project. Not only is it more profitable, but if you know what you’re doing it adds to the production value and helps you create better work. Have a nice day!
Thx für the nice Video. Thats the Name of the arca plate?
SmallRig Extended Arca Swiss Plate!
Love the content. Keep it going!
Thank you! Means a lot! We will keep it going!
Great video!
Thanks so much!!
Nice system. I'm at the point that dedicated case are begining to be relevant for some productions. I might built something like this, adapted to my kit need!
For sure! The nice thing about TrekPak is once you have enough of it you can almost endlessly reconfigure to suit changing needs. We are about to do a revamp of our case layout again because we got a new drone and are simplifying our E-mount lens lineup
Here is our kit link if anyone is interested! I also dropped it in the description. kit.co/Gloryvisuals/our-film-gear
its motivating me to repack my pelicans haha love lv1~3 system. i'm sure you will have lv4,5,6 coming soon!! luv it
That's awesome! Good luck on the re-pack! And thanks for the comment. We appreciate the support!
Nothing says PRO like a pelican case that is covered with stickers.😅😅
@@mikegustafson6679 guessing you’re meaning this as sarcasm, but ironically it’s spot on. Our clients get to see the places we’ve been, that our cases are used and worn, and the fact that we have a personality. And we’ve gotten nothing but positive comments about them 😊 It ain’t that serious homie.
One thing I didn't see no where in sight was headphones. How do you guys monitor audio?
@@ReggieABrown we have a pair of Shure 215 IEMs in one of the zipper pockets in the lid organizer - this is usually how we monitor audio because of the better seal vs over-ears and the lack of space they take up!
Jesus is king. This channel is sick, definitely subscribed!
Yes and AMEN! Thanks so much brotha, means a lot! God rules 🙌🏼
Loving the green/purple lights, names?
@@tanner.quintero these are the Nanlite PavoTube II 60XR! Thanks for the comment!
Careful with those NPFs not connecting to metal! I rarely fly to gigs, but a Pelican 1510 for dedicated things like Audio and Wireless monitor could be useful for me.
@@timdanyo898 watcha mean about the NPFs? We don’t fly a ton either - but when we do, we def appreciate the 1510 (same goes for the 1535 Air but we don’t have any of those)
@@Gloryvisuals batteries can catch fire if they touch metal and it creates a short circuit. NPFs have those metal connector ends that allow energy transfer to the camera. I noticed when you were putting the NPFs back in the case that they were facing each other’s metal sides. Even though the batteries metal connectors weren’t touching because one was flipped upside the opposite, just seeing the active sides touching made me nervous!
@@timdanyo898 ahh, I see - honestly we don’t really use them anymore so I should just pull them out, but they’re nice to have as a phone powerbank in a pinch. I usually put them all connectors down so they aren’t even close to touching but I must have done it that way for some reason this time. Good catch! Will be more careful about that!
Sick video. I’m surprised you didn’t go with the Jason case lid organizer
@@Gavinnations those look dope! Spendyyy tho haha. Didn’t know about those when we got ours 6ish years ago, were they a thing back then?
Solid info! What shelves are you using in the background tho?
@@JowiiTV thank you! These are the storage racks from Costco!
i need links to everything
I’ll work on it! We’ve got a Kit page so I’ll update it and post the link to the description!
Why put a bright light right by your head pointing at the camera?
It’s purpose is as a kicker. Normally I’d have it out of the shot but the whole point of our setup is to have gear in the background. It’s set to 1% brightness 😊
Nice. TrekPak price is kinda steep, but I have one for my 1650 and I love it :D.
@@JoATTech it definitely is, but in the long-term with how modular it is, I think it pays off. We went through several sets of foam as we reconfigured and it got beat up from use
@@Gloryvisuals But it depends how big the changes are for the trekpak. If they are revolutionary, the included excess might be not enough :D. I know that from experience :D. Also if you are from 1st world country it's not that expensive. For me it's 4 times more expensive, cause our currency is shit (1/4 of a dollar - but the price is the same as in US).
I have made my own trekpak for a lot less than shop prices. It’s really not that difficult and you can make it very customisable.
Just a comment for the algorithm ;)
@@ScheelPhillip hey thanks!! 😊
Sweet system! been thinking about gutting all my cases for the trek pack stuff!
@@kyleranney thanks homie! Def fits a lot more and seems to protect just as well. Makes them a lot heavier tho with all the crap you can fit in em 😂
Make your own trekpak, it’s easy.
I am so jealous of that audio case. Our blimp is warped from not having the right case to carry it in.
@@connorquigvids aw dang that’s a bummer. Do you have a 1510 or similar? We used to keep just the blimp handle and mics in one of those, but the boompole always just got tossed in the mix and was getting banged up
@@Gloryvisuals I wish we owned a single pelican case of any kind 😂
@@connorquigvids you’ll get there!
Love the contents of this video. I only say the following in hopes that it helps you grow. Try to add some b roll into the video to help get your points across. The first 3 to 4 minutes was just you talking to a camera and the majority of people will click off because of that. Once again, I hope this helps. :)
@@jwaugh3 Sincerely appreciate the feedback! Will definitely try to make intros more engaging. Appreciate you watching and for the comment!
Title: The BEST WAY to organize your camera gear :47 "Im not trying to tell you this is the best way to organize your gear"
LOL. When the editor doesn’t write the title 😂
@@Gloryvisuals hahaha I love it
What did you use to print out those labels with the arrows inside the case?
@@MSMImage we used a standard 6mm black laminated label for a Brother P-Touch label maker - but the aluminum tags are from Cam Creaux. Link to labels in description!
👊😎👨🚀
great video, love that background!
Thanks so much! We appreciate the love and support!
@@Gloryvisuals I'm thinking about converting to creating content about creating content 😆
becarefull with the wheels.. just give a quick look to Justin porter video
Just checked it out - going to message ProAim for sure! WE have actually had a wheel fall off before while pushing the cart up the ramp. Since then we REALLY tightened them all down. Honestly, might just Liquid Nails them permanently on since we never break our cart down anyways LOL

I design gear for cameras and use 3D printed parts quite frequently so I'm always watching these videos. Most of the time I am rolling my eyes but for this video I was taking notes. Fantastic logic and build philosophy! I learned a lot and will integrate some of these into my designs🎉
Yo, thank you so much for the feedback! That's amazing, do you design for specific brands or just for your own use? Would love to check out your stuff. There's usually a few things I'd change about most brands' accessories, but I'm no 3D Designer so I have to roll with what I feel is best that's out there.
I noticed you guys added a sheet if plywood to the base of your harbor freight cart. Was the bare metal too flimsy for the wheels?
Yep, it caused the sheet metal on the bottom to buckle when turning the cart. It maybe would have held up for awhile but it was only a matter of time before it would have been an issue. The plywood sheet fixed it up nicely though - still going strong!
What lens and diffusion are you using to film these videos?
Hey! The lens is the Sigma 24-70 Art (gen1) and the diffusion is the K&F Concept Black 1/4 Mist
Very similar to my rig for my FX30 except that I use the Tilta cage and handle. The ARCA Swiss plate is a great standard across multiple brands. Example: I can slide off my tripod right onto my DJI gimbal without removing the cage or changing the baseplate. Simpler is always better!
Yup, arca is becoming the go-to! Thanks for watching!
Great vid. Just picked up 4 hawk locks today
I really hope they expand this system - namely with the Sony T8 rosettes would be great, and adding support for different anti-twist like SmallHD etc. rather than just ARRI! But it’s definitely an innovative system and we have had zero issues in over a year of relying on Hawklock!
Love this! I’m totally like you, watch so many of these and always get SOMETHING from each of them
Thanks for watching and commenting!! I love seeing how different people build their cameras for different use cases!
Another one! Ha ha!
