It's no secret that advancements in technology have exploded over the past 25 years.
I think we've all seen the RadioShack ad from 1991 (the same year BMA Media Group was founded, no less) featuring a full page of electronics whose capabilities we now hold in our back pocket.
As a video guy, these advancements are doubly exciting on a professional level.
Take, for instance, the MoVI handheld camera stabilizer by Freefly. It's designed to be very light and virtually silent while allowing for unrestricted and incredible camera moves. From the moment I laid eyes on it, I knew this was the future and had to be part of our video productions.
The MoVI is a highly sought after camera stabilization system made up of motors, lightweight aluminum rods and magic, obviously. If the camera operator wants to down a large black coffee and chase it with shots of espresso...no problem! (Disclaimer: not recommended.)
The best part is you can get amazing Hollywood-style camera moves without a large crew and a 3-ton truck of equipment.
With that said, you can imagine my delight when we got to take one out with a Canon C300 for a recruitment video we are working on for the United Association International Training Fund. I even let my co-editor, Jon, play with it while on location at University Hospitals Ahuja Medical Center (see picture).
I can’t wait to lay this footage down and see this piece come to life!
