I referred to this published article from SVT blogg.svt.se/melodifestivalen-expertbloggen/files/2020/01/KAMPLOT_MELLO20_191217.pdf where your name is spelled with a C instead of a K. I apologize for the mistake and will have this in mind if there are more videos. Awesome work in any case!

I'm not the one filming these videos, but I hope to be able to attend all the shows next year and film.

@@isak1732 Okay, do you know somebody film it this year? That's sad but I hope you will have fun next year

Tack, nice work with this year's mello :)

According to another comment on this video, the zoom control is on the gimbal.

There is currently not so much content from the rehearsals available on KZbin, I read somewhere that you're only allowed to upload 2-3 minutes of footage from the rehersals. I don't know if that applies to after the contest as well. Either case, I will try to get as much footage as I can.

Anton Diachuk The second guy you see in 2017 is the so called focus puller. He manages the focus (and zoom I believe). But in 2016 did the camera man do the focus pulling by him self so there was no need for a second guy.

@@isak1732 The steadicam operators doing Eurovision always use focus pullers. Some focus pullers prefer to pull focus by eye, measuring the distance beetween the subject and the lens and this is the second person following the operator which sometimes can be seen on stage. Most pullers though just sit backstage and pull focus while watching a monitor with focus peaking on it. Zoom is controlled by the steadicam operators themselves using a zoom demand placed on the steadicam gimbal :)

Yes, as far as I know.

Do you now why

Niclas and Stefan has been working in Melfest for 7+ years (Stefan from 2000), I think they need to take a break.

You will get more footage after Eurovision ;)

I'm not sure, unfortunately. I'm currently doing some research on that.

Operators are Niklas Östling and Thomas Antonsson. :D

Yes they are, I can also confirm that now. :)

@@isak1732 Great research guys! 😉

@@tomasantonsson Whooah, look who found his way here :D

Yes, the video should be ready for the weekend.

NIce, I can't wait for it :D

Adam Opie I believe they do it themselves.

Well, there was no steadicam shot in Bulgaria's performance so therefore.

Joey Jason Almonia Im not sure what you mean, but there was no shot with a steadicam during that part iv that's what you mean.

Isak Hansson "Hey It's Me" is of course the very first part of LoveWave and it uses steadycam before they get to the spidercam where she says "It's Like I stepped out of space and time and come alive"

Joey Jason Almonia Actually no, they used a regular handheld camera and you can see it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKnLoYpvhatreK8

Isak Hansson Yes I just watched it and they definitely used another cam that is indeed not a steadycam. 😅

Joey Jason Almonia No worry, I also though there where using a steadicam for that shot at first look. :)

Cool, thanks for the info.

Where was Niclas Norwal this year?

Günter Ertan Niclas is a Swedish steadicam operator and he mainly works for SVT and TV4.

War eine super Zeit dort!

Vito Goričan steadicam assistants (the other people next to the operator) are: Stephan Bukor and Manuel Winkler

What???

Yes! :)

Nice, I am looking forward.

Yes, absolutely! I'm currently working on a compilation of the 2016 final too so stay tuned for more awesome Steadicam shots! :)

Isak Hansson thanks. big hugs from Mexico
