John,
It really is just about practice and experience. Last year or even 2 months ago I couldn't come close to this amount of color work in an SDE. Mike is starting to get into the SDE workflow...

Jason,

Hi Glen,
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed how you put this one together. The VO work and intro is really excellent, the pacing, shot variety, and that spinning dance shot also stood to to me. If that...

Travis,
The real disadvantage is having to find the hood, put it on, and rebalance. I like to keep my rig the same as much as possible, so I only add things on when really needed. Certain days...

I do use the hoodman LCD shade on occasion, depending on time of day and where I am shooting. It is a simple adjustment to the rig. The great things about a larger rig is that it is easy...

Chris,
There were probably a good 10 SEI in there for sure. That warehouse had some holes in the floor and the stairs were spotty at best- not the best steadicam terrain. But, you seemed pretty...

Travis,
