Thanks!

I am 100% trying it on trees! Great video, Rob, awesome ideas for shots in it! The plate one 😮 Stealing it! My skateboard attempt was also a jittery disaster (unless that's the effect you're looking at). But it's fun to know it fits there and can be used at least for that pov shot of carrying the skate around!

[@SmartphoneFilmmaker]

The trees idea turned out to be really useful for sure! Thanks. Haha The skateboard attempt definitely did not go to plan but as you say it is still useful.

Got a magic arm last month. Used it to put a back up camcorder on my tripod for the school show. Taking it to Berlin next week. I don’t quite know how it does what it does but it’s great.

[@SmartphoneFilmmaker]

Good to see it’s working so well for you. Yeah Magic does describe it well! I can see myself using this a lot.

Looks so good! Thanks for the video

[@SmartphoneFilmmaker]

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it!

Nice video. Thanks. How did you attach the phone to the rig?

[@SmartphoneFilmmaker]

Thanks! I just used an old phone clamp with a 1/4 inch thread attachment.

[@Ambashaw]

Does the phone holster come with the rig?

[@SmartphoneFilmmaker]

No but they are cheap and from lots of sites and companies.

Hi this is a very useful video. But I'm stumped at the point where can I connect a phone holder to the part which has a cold shoe mount? What mod do I need for that?

[@SmartphoneFilmmaker]

Thanks! You can unscrew (which is what I did) the end cold shoe mount revealing a 1/4 mount for a phone clamp. 👍🏻
