I have to make a new distinction now. You can have attractive without being overtly sexual. The difference between a nice cashmere sweater and slacks and miniskirt and halter top perhaps?

Oneday all the news anchors are going to be replaced with animated talking heads tailored to their particular markets.

Imagine the exact same news at 11pm in Indiana, same script from one of the big networks, being spoken by an athletic type caucasion male and at the very same instant, the exact same words coming from an attractive black female in Detroit. Maybe I'll get to choose my own anchor from a list, like a video game. Imagine the fun hackers will have with t
at. That's on the way.

In the future, we will all be target marketed from birth to death.

Sorry Charles :)

What a cruel thing for Charles. Hey, how about Charles in a bikini. Ok, forget that but I personally like the look of a real Steadicam operator over the "catch you attention" type.

Hi Terry,

I visited your website. I noticed that you put a bag as the first item. May I ask what is the point of the bag? A container for extra minidv stuff? Or put some weight to get counter balance?

Just curious

Leigh,

You are the first to see the beginnings of our new website. I hadn't even seen it until you asked your question because we just changed our DNS today and didn't know our web designer had started the "Under Construction" yet.

The back pack is one or our patent pending designs which does two things. First, it carries the whole indicam dual articulated arm system and sled (sometimes the camera as well), and second it acts as the vest system where the front plate etc. attaches.

We thought it would be nice if you could pack everything where you needed it easily and then assemble the stabilizer without any extra parts to leave around. It has worked out very well. I went into NAB wearing only the backpack and within 5 minutes I had a full stabilization system which I wore for 5.5 hours. I was flying a DVX-100A.

I'll be interested to see how the whole website things goes.

By-the-way, I have noticed your skills have improved a great deal from the first clips I saw. Keep it up!

Hi Terry,

Congratulations

Now you can freely upload your demo video for us to watch, right? Full resolution video as one option for download please ;-)

Regards
Leigh

We build stabization systems and have someone else do the website. I'm not exactly sure what we will have until I talk with the designer.

Okay, here's the solution. The only fair thing to do would be to put Charles in a bikini with his Steadicam rig. Just a minute... Excuse me while I go poke out my mind's eye.
