Steadicam test

Jake it looks like another thing that is causing your back pain is your head/neck position to watch the monitor down below. A lot of the guys I have seen do stedi-cam work have the monitor up high, even above the cam. When they mount it low, it is usually only for a specific short shot. When the monitor is up high, you don't strain your neck, which in turn strains your lower back. Other than that, you are well on the way. Pretty darn good for some first attempts.

Rob,
The kids show the sheep at 4H shows. This was part of the sheeps training.
Still kind of interesting seeing sheep on leashes LOL

Andy,
You may be on to something there. I'll have to look into that.

I found out that steadicam is having a 2 day course in Austin on using their steadicam rigs the same weekend in March that I'll be in Colorado.
Wish I knew about that one before I booked my trip.

Jake
