It’s Smooth Sailing for You and Your Camera: Make Your Own Steadicam!
steadicam

Operators, babies’ bottoms and sometimes peanut butter…

All famously smooth! And now your dramatic sweeping pans can be smooth too.

Your digital camera can record video, and you’ve probably already taken a crack at making your own cinematographic masterpiece.

The trick to filming like a pro -> Keeping that camera steady!

Luckily you don’t need a roll of Clevelands to buy a commercial steadicam, you can make one using supplies from the hardware store!

With a homemade gimbal and camera mount, you’ll soon be shooting video so smooth, it’s almost criminal.
