Hello I’m Corey Turner here on ExpertVillage.com and today we’re talking about low budget moving making. This jib is sitting perfectly balanced as it is, you can move it from side to side and I can follow my characters, my principles as I’m walking through the set, I can lift it up and allow them to walk underneath it showing large openings for instance restaurant scenes behind them a playground scene, a parking lot scene, things like that. Now there are adjustments that I can make on this as well, I can release this pin by using this handle I can make the camera hand tilt. So if I wanted to look straight down at somebody, I can go up and look down. I used this in a kid show that we just did in a baseball scene, as the outfielder was running backwards I had the camera hand up, I’m sorry move up and hand tilt down and all of a sudden we went to from face level to twelve feet in the air, we had an incredible shot, it showed the field him, it had an incredible production value. Now I found this piece of equipment here on the internet and if you shop around and if you look around you can find some great deals.
