5 Creative camera jib (mini crane) tricks | Cinecom.net

🎬 Master Filmmaking, Video Editing, & VFX in One Bundle! 🎥: www.cinecom.ne... - Get 94% Off Now 🚀 [Limited Offer] Camera jibs (or mini-cranes) are awesome tools for cinematic shots. In this video we share 5 creative tips and tricks to take your jib techniques to the next level.
We got the iFootage M1-III crane and decided to make a tricks and tips video about it. When using your creativity, we found out there's a lot more to do than just moving up, down, left and right.
In the first trick we let the camera point to the opposite side, where the mini crane operator stands. But instead, we'll place the actor/actress there. We now get a nice POV shot from an different actor standing on the other side.
The next trick is rather simpel, but gives great results. We'll let the actress come in from the side. The actress is looking to an area the camera can't see yet. But as she starts moving again, we follow her movement and reveal the area she was looking at.
In the third trick we position the camera above the actress who's laying down on the ground. Now, we push down the jib from a long shot to a close up. This creates an effect where the actress could receive an idea from the heaven :-)
The fourth trick closes in on the actress to create a dramatic isolated shot. Rather than making big movements with the jib, you want to make small but aggressive movements and keep your actress in a medium shot while she's doing an action.
And in the last trick, our actress will find a camera laying on the ground. AS she pick it up, she puts the camera perfectly stable to make a selfie. This can only be done with a tilt head on the end of your jib. The magic happens when the viewer sees the camera go from handheld to fix.

[@adsertheblade]

Thanks for thew helpful video. For tip 4, did you use any resistance, or was it as loose as possible? I find those shots very difficult to keep smooth, but my jib doesn't have resistance, while the fluid head does... Thanks

Hatsoff man... great work keep going ... and sorry for the long commentary ...haha

[@jaju2362]

Tq Jody ur really awesome nd I ll come back to u if I have queries and please help me to take better videos in future thanks alot great man...🙌🏻🤝

[@masterthelastman]

really Learn a lot of your video. question: how do you focus when she steps out of the car and you follow her with the crane? autofocus? because it is difficult to focus and operate the crane at the same time.

[@CinecomCrew]

+Lennard “LDTV” Duyvesteijn I never use autofocus, my setup isn't even able to use the AF system. It's just something you practice. I always have one finger on the focus wheel and with every movement I try to focus track. In the beginning it won't go so easy, but you need to keep practicing.

[@DanYoo.]

Nice video :)

[@Kolaborasik]

Hy jody..i suggest to you.. to make tutorial about how to choose a cheap boom mic and how to edit the sound from the cheap mic make a like pro boom mic.. thanks

[@ExplosiveMelon]

[@kendeom3399]

You're belgian Right ?

[@CinecomCrew]

+Ken Déom ye

[@kendeom3399]

I really like what you do, just continue ^^

[@superbmediacontentcreator]

Since you are obviously not an English speaker you might want to learn the conjugation of the word 'lie.' Something that is 'alive' "lies" down or as we say, "you lay pipe (or are laid to rest) but you "lie" down... good luck as a writer...

[@superbmediacontentcreator]

I hope Kim's grammar is better than the hosts since you lay pipe but you "lie" down... not lay down.

[@ImprovUnedited]

True, but even native speakers are getting this wrong all the time, such that one day they're going to update the dictionary again. What's however not going to happen is the pronunciation of Idea isn't going to become like the Dutch/Flemish/German Idee. The host needs to get all three syllables out clearly.

[@shoninshoe2659]

is she moaning Myrtle?
