Even after years of doing this stuff, I still get excited watching $70k worth of camera hanging 30 feet in the air off a couple of measly bolts.
Last week I posted two 3 minute films that I’ve been commissioned by Russell Investments to create exploring the topic of ‘risk’. In these vids (please check them out here if you missed them), our crew hauled a RED One digital cinema camera and a handful of Nikon D3s HD dSLR cameras into a skateboarding park and glassblowing studio with the goal of making some pretty pictures. In the process, we put these cameras to work in some pretty fun ways and I thought it would be cool to share those with you.
Thus, here’s another Chase Jarvis RAW behind-the-scenes video where you’ll see the RED One being shot handheld, slung from a jib, on a dolly, and on an Easy Rig. You’ll also see the D3s handheld, in shotgun mode, on a steadicam, and remotely chasing a skateboarder on a fun new three-wheeled dolly. There will be no cameras on tripods anywhere in this video.
Hopefully this vid answers a lot of the questions that poured in last week in the comments section, via my @chasejarvis twitter handle (I’d love your follow), Facebook (fan me?), and via email. If I missed something, give a holler and I’ll do my best to respond in the comments below.

If we missed anything, lemme know.
And once again, if you missed the two original videos showing the results of all this camera wrangling, please check it out here.
Happy shooting.
Obviously high resolution video quality contains much memory, that’s why it presents superior feature.
Thank you for another wonderful post. Where else could anybody get that kind of information in such an ideal way of writing? I have a presentation next week, and I’m on the look for such info.
One other thing to point out is that an online business administration diploma is designed for people to be able to without problems proceed to bachelor’s degree courses. The Ninety credit diploma meets the other bachelor education requirements so when you earn the associate of arts in BA online, you’ll have access to the latest technologies in this field. Several reasons why students are able to get their associate degree in business is because they may be interested in the field and want to obtain the general knowledge necessary ahead of jumping to a bachelor education program. Thx for the tips you really provide as part of your blog.
