Product description

The Steadicam Operator's Handbook, from Focal Press, is packed with interviews and instruction by the world's premier Steadicam professionals. This 2nd edition was written by Jerry Holway and Laurie Hayball, and it teaches you a wide range of practices for the Steadicam, including physics and balancing through a series of step-by-step line dances and practice shots. The most personal aspects of filmmaking are covered, including how individual operators make creative and practical decisions using this unique camera support system. You will also learn the business side of a Steadicam career, from buying your best rig to negotiating deals with producers and unit production managers. Also included are observations and anecdotes - inspirational, funny, instructive, and cautionary - written by a number of other experienced Steadicam operators around the world, including the legendary inventor of the Steadicam himself, Garrett Brown.

Contents:
•Updated movie examples and ample coverage of new technologies and accessories, including Garrett Brown's new invention, The Tango and details on using a Steadicam for filming 3D
•A complete course in itself: whether you're a novice or experienced Steadicam operator, you can use this book to build your skill set and move forward in your career
•A companion website provides exclusive video instruction and interviews from Steadicam pros
