Understanding Our Equipment: The Glidecam 4000 Pro
We have been using the Glidecam system for some time now, but not everyone understands exactly what it is and why it’s important. I will explain.
The glidecam is a stabalizing system which can be used as hand held or with a vest(like in the video). It allows us to film traveling shots smoothly and gracefully without all the jerking you would normally get. The system is very versitile and allows us to move it up and down or side to side enabling the camera to glide in the air and capture steady and professional footage for your wedding video. The vest is an extra support system used for longer periods of filming. The screen that you will see in the video is an extra peice and is not always used.
This video (not done by TouchDream) aims to show you exactly how it works and demonstrates the kind of super smooth shots we are able to get. Notice towards the end how the camera glides smoothly while the camera man is running. Can you imagine how this would look with just a hand held camera?
With this technology we are able to take our wedding videos to the next level of professionalism. This is definately NOT your uncle Bobs vidoegraphy.
I will be back with more on the Glidecam soon…
