[@TheJakefolger]

Great tutorial! I just tried it out like you said and it worked perfectly. Subbed. Thanks!

[@NewTechUnbox]

Good tips, learnt something. Thanks Mark 😊

[@Mark_Hemmings]

Thank you so much, glad it helped :)

[@TheJakefolger]

Can you make any suggestions on photographing large paintings?

Thanks Mark really helpful. Just wondering though about whether the arms being unsupported mean that the focus is not as precise as it would be if you could somehow have something stable and firm to rest on? I met you in San Miguel 8 years ago and your prepared me well for making little movies. Thanks for that also.

Hi Deborah, it’s great to talk to you again!!! And as for San Miguel, this is the first winter in 13 years that I haven’t been to my beloved 2nd home of SMA. I miss it :( You are absolutely correct, the stability of a solid platform is the best. My goal for this video was best practices for when the artist doesn’t have a tripod or access to a stable platform. Thanks for commenting on this, I appreciate it. Have you been back to SMA? I forget wether you were visiting or if you lived there. Talk soon!

@@Mark_Hemmings Thanks. Makes sense. Do the best we can with stability. Sad you aren't in SMA. Such a great place! I'm presently working on a poetry manuscript that includes SMA. All the best for your work. I loved how you showed me to do the people walking across the screen ( the Mexican doors) from one side to the other and out! Wonderful! Cheers, Deborah
