- Hello everyone! How are you all?
Cable wrangling can be a bit of a struggle when you're just starting so hopefully these little tips will help you out!
I do want to apologise for the colour grading in this video. I was really struggling balancing the LED I was using in the foreground with the 650w Fresnels in the back. Turns out the LED panel just wasn't that great! But if you can push past my not-so-good attempt at fixing that issue, thanks!
Big thanks to The Vision House in Port Melbourne for providing a little space to film some of my videos. If you're looking for gear rentals in Melbourne, take a look at The Vision House! www.thevisionhouse.com.au/

Just gotta say, I really appreciate the simplicity of your training videos. Rather then just super general knowledge and few examples you really get down in the small details and include realistic examples of what could happen and how to deal with those things. Thanks so much for the great videos, I've learned a ton!
Thanks so much, Calder!
Rodie trick when pulling up tape laid down parallel to the cable. As you pick up the tape, step on the cable to keep it close the ground and keep stepping on the cable as you pull up the tape. This way you avoid the tape wrapping around the cable like at 2:45.
I have never heard of someone recomending "over over" coiling because it puts a long sprial into the cable which leads to tangles. over over is about the same as wrapping the cable over your elbow.
Takes me back to my live production days, concerts, events, etc.
All cables all the time
Thank you for making these videos! Moving from post-production side of things to production, they've been absolutely invaluable! I'm looking forward to seeing what other knowledge you'll be sharing. :D
Thank you for watching, James! Glad you're finding them useful. :)
Your videos are the most instructive on cinematography !
So glad I came upon this channel! Quality work Felicia!
Thanks, Michael! Glad you're enjoying the content :)
This is great. I get asked to explain cable wrangling a lot with interns, swings or young PAs on set often. And I love to give tips, but I’m also going to point those new to industry peeps to your channel. :) and yes on the equality side. Being Filipino, I run into ceilings often. :/ even with 15+ years in the game. But that’s why DEI training overall is also great for everyone. :) thank you again and keep up the wonderful videos to you and your team who take the time to make these. :)
I think the skill of assertion of interest what makes men go further in the industry
Great info! I just learned that I`ve be thought to wrangle the SDI`s as Powercable. But thanks to you, I will do a much better work... On the day! ;-)
😂 glad you found some useful info!
Some actual filmmaking videos on RUclips! Cool! I love your content and regularly send these on to people. Cheers to you and your Alexa Plus 🥂
Thanks for this video!!!!! Thanks for ALL your videos!!!!
Youre very welcome, Liam! Glad you enjoy them :)
Great tips and wonderful video edition!!!
Great channel! Perfect pace and detail.
Amazing stuff please keep it coming!! Super helpful
Thank you for making these! I'm learning a few positions as a member of a small crew and your videos have been the best I've found so far on AC work! I wanted to add something as an audio engineer with some physics background that hopefully is helpful to know and it's in reference to the electrical cables causing interference in the audio lines. Electrical interference is strongest when those two cables are run parallel and doesn't occur when the cables cross perpendicularly if they must cross at some point. Also strangely enough, the interference is opposite on one side of an electrical cable as the other side. That means either using a serpentine back and forth across or setting a coiled audio cable directly over the center of the cable run lets it spend roughly equivalent length on both sides of the electrical cable and causes the interference to cancel out.
Woaaaah that's super interesting! Thanks so much for your comment!
Felicia Smith sure thing!
That's really useful, thank you
Thank you for these videos! keep up the great work :)
i didnt know i needed this video
thnx very much
Amazing Job explaining stuff! Keep up the great work :)
Great tips
thanks for sharing 🙏
Great tips. Thank you.
You're very welcome!
👍🏻
Great video! I usually just wrangle a cable to the natural way it flows, because if I try to follow one of the methods, majority of the time the cable has its own way it wants to go, 😆I'll try to leave it in the sun next time and see if it corporates better! Q: Is there a reason why a certain cable should be over, over while another should be over, under? Better electrical flow depending on the cable?
That's actually an acceptable method if you don't have time to fix things in the moment though! 😂
Subbed!
Good video! will you make a video crimping a bnc?
Oh yeah! Potentially. Hadn't thought about a video on that. I don't have the gear to do that one at home but if I can get out and do that on location, sure 👍
Why is it that the powercables should be over and over, instead of over and under that neutrals the cable twisting direction?
Largely depends on how rigid the cable is. I've always been taught to train power leads over over to prevent damage of the interior. There are others that do over under and have no issues but some power leads also have a less rigid exterior than the ones I'm using here. It's important to check with whoever owns the lead as well, they may have their own way. I've had certain people I've worked with who prefer large loops and others who prefer small loops. :) hope this helps!
Great!!! Felicia, Can you make a video assist tutorial ? please!!! 🙏🏽
On the list!! :)

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😁😁😁😁 muito bom!
Muito obrigada! 😊 Glad you enjoyed it!
Yeah learn the right method and stick to it. Don't listen to the many jerks who'll be like- "NOOOOO! YOU'RE DOING IT ALL WRONGGGG!"
