Does a rig really make you a better filmmaker? I think the better question here is WHEN will a rig make you a better filmmaker because if you don’t use it in the right context, it might actually cost you! In this video I share my reasoning behind how I rig up my camera but also why I sometimes prefer to leave it behind. Every shoot is different and should be considered in its own context. Over the past 12 years I’ve shot a variety of genres and I’ve also made my fair share of mistakes when it comes to gear choices which has led me to a more simplistic approach. To help you avoid some of these mistakes I’ve compiled a check list of 4 things that I reason FOR and AGAINST using a camera rig and I still use this on all my shoots no matter how big or small. #filmmakingrig #cinematic #sonyA7sIII #SonyA7IV #camerarig

Full disclosure, SmallRig didn’t pay me to make this video, I simply love their gear and I’ve been using it long before they reached out to me. They were kind enough to send me some accessories but have no say in the final outcome and the views reflected here are 100% mine.
