Here is a breakdown of our 4x Canon 7D HDSLR livestream production:
// Video
**Standard Shot, Camera A: 18-35mm Canon 2.8 **
We had this camera setup straight on for backup cam and to capture a standard static shot. Many thanks to William and Brian Bailey at Tungsten Monkey!
Rails Rig, Camera B: 100-400 Canon EF on Phillip Bloom Pocket Dolly (via J.Fry!)
Thanks to Stephan M. who operated this cam beautifully!
This rig took three persons to operate (plus AC and PA). We had one operating the motorized head with their own monitor, one operating the crane movements, I was operating remote follow focus via separate monitor and directing between the head and crane movements.
Handheld Rig, Camera D: 24-70m Canon 2.8
One handheld rig with rails. Shout out to Jeremiah Fry who ran this rig!
// Lighting & Set Design
My brother David headed these elements up, so I’ll wait for him to speak to this, but I will say we had an A Class team from hollywood gaffers (Sean, Steve, & Steve) helping us out.
// Sound Production
This was all produced by the Music Shed, a world class sound and music production studio in New Orleans, LA. They have worked with Radiohead, U2, and a million others huge acts.
// Overall Production
We had a world class team of production managers and event producers in Abby Hardy and Rachel Puckett. Many thanks to the whole team including our new intern Austin Arnold who has the hardest work ethic of anyone I know.
Also wanted to give special thanks to Ross Hinkle and Chris Schultz, who without, none of this would have happened.
