My old instructor was around during the time of steadycam, before the creation of lightweight gimbals. Typically the days were long and you'd have to be in a good physical state in order to do it, as a steadycam rig is big, bulky, and heavy. The steadycam I fielded wrapped around the body and was an easy 30 or so pounds on its own. Combine that with a 25 to 30 pound camera, that weight adds up, especially when hours pass.
Try it with a beam splitter 3D rig. I did once the camera rig was about 65 pounds (I know that because that was the upper weight limit of my arm springs wound all the way up) plus my vest arm and sled added another 25 pounds. I was only able to do very short takes in a straight line for about 40-50 meters and then I had to break because my legs were about to collapse. I think we did about 8 takes of that and then I was done for the day.
🎥Nice Video🤟🏽 I being follow your work and it was an honor that you chose my videos to add it in your editing 😉 it was a nice surprise 👊🏽 keep the good work bro 👊🏽
They are two very different tools to stabilize the cameras. Gimbals have a limit to the size of camera package for instance. But can fit into smaller spaces and even act as a remote head on the dolly for an excellently smooth studio shot
They're pretty different in the way the shots look. Steadicam has a more natural flow to it whereas an electronic gimbal like the movi often isn't so organic looking.
Was Halloween (1978) the 1st movie or one of the first to use Steadicam, or it was other one of the first independent movies to use Steadicam and utilize it for the Michael Myers POV shots, or am I wrong.
Don't know if this'll interest you, but for _Halloween_ John Carpenter and his DP Dean Cundey actually employed a Panaglide, which at the time was the novel version by Panavision of the Steadicam ( _Halloween_ was shot completely with Panavision equipment).

in a semi related note to the Steadicam, the Smartgun props in the movie Aliens where basically a machine gun mounted on a steadicam harness and arm.
Love the videos!! Just bought a steadicam and doing some live concert work next month. Excited to see your next video!
Superb content! Keep it coming pls!!!
Engrossed in this series...bravo👏👏👏

This video was a course. Thank you!
I love you channel. Thank you!
Perfect as always! Thanks a lot!
Great content again
Great video
Thanks so much for this video
for sure thats will be a great video once again !!!
The original SteadyCam had its pivot on the back, with an arm reaching around the front. Then they moved it to the front, but needed a gyro to assist.
Super interesting!
Trinity is a 2 axis gimbal, just want to make sure to note any errors
Keep it going, please!
can you do a video breaking down the cinematography for stranger things?
Yo, for a while there you disappeared...where were you!!
ARG... BOUND FOR GLORY plus you get to see crane into steady-cam usage!
the cost of a steadicam without the camera is five thousand dollars
More like $50,000
Jajajajajaja la gallina le dio el toque especial que necesitaba este video
What’s your thoughts on Steadicam vs Movi Pro (or something similar)?

I think the film Bound for Glory was the first film to make use of the Steadicam
@@suohlad Oh thank you, I wasn't too sure. Much appreciated.
@@robertobuatti7226 Rocky was also a very early use.
@@kai21012 Oh cool, thank you for that, much appreciated.
