Steadicam Operator reacts to steadicam fail videos

[@alessandrogentili70]

The one falling with film camera was me in 2010 on a commercial. It was a cable underestimated during rehearsals. Nothing broken and a big laugh from me, agency director etc. when we checked the backstage operator clip.Greetings from Italy !!

[@SteadiRed]

Hahaha, it never occurred to me the people in the video would see this. I'm glad you where okay!

[@davidkenzo1965]

I dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know a method to log back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my password. I love any tips you can give me.

@David Kenzo instablaster =)

[@davidkenzo1965]

@Axton Michael I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@davidkenzo1965]

@Axton Michael it worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thanks so much, you saved my ass !

[@jonnyhaw]

That one at 3:36 annoys the hell out of me too - a multimillionaire footballer humiliating, and perhaps threatening the livelihood, of a hardworking Steadicam Operator. Compare and contrast to the clip at 3:00 where the athletes jump in the help the fallen Steadicam Operator.

[@SteadiRed]

completely agree 👍

[@brunoscali]

what team is that ? or maybe anyone knows the name of the player?

[@ScottsJourneys]

That's really annoying that that soccer player thought is was funny to trip up the guy. A lot could be avoided if someone was watching out for the steadicam operator.

[@SteadiRed]

agreed! thanks for watching!

[@JamesLindsayUK]

@@SteadiRed Even worse is how it was reported in the newspapers (Like here: www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/watch-ezequiel-lavezzi-play-classic-2346627 ) they basically see it as a "funny prank"

[@LeeOFrey]

Wow I feel bad for those guys. Especially the guy with the soccer player it definitely looks like the guy purposely tripped him that’s not cool

[@LunarGlowMedia]

I'm trying to remember to auto like all of your videos to boost you in the algorithm. Your channel is so underrated and it's produced so well. I mean, you obviously have the experience to do that from being in the industry, but you need a signal boost my man. Your personality is entertaining while I learn and observe. Keep it up. 10/10

[@SteadiRed]

Thanks so much man, that was very nice 😁

[@marcinkowalski6877]

11:00 the scene looks like it was being shot on the roof and the cameraman tripped over a lightning rod...

[@SteadiRed]

That makes sense

[@stefanmayer444]

Good for the operator, that the roof didn't ended were he felt.

[@paradoxxaudiovisualproduct9430]

Free coffee and a pat in the back for that assistant near the end. Kudos.

[@SteadiRed]

🤣

[@TV-FilmCameramanUK]

6:10 I know that Steadi Op, in fact he was on a show this NYE with me, I won't mention his name here. We were merciless with poking fun for months... 9:57 Good grief I've not seen an RF pole and Poleman for years....

[@SteadiRed]

That's awesome, I hope you didn't roast him too bad hahaha. Not seeing the poleman is definitely a positive hahaha

[@topwaterfilms]

On grass I wear turf cleats. The shoes have many multiple small plastic spikes, 1/4 the size of regular cleats.

[@SteadiRed]

good idea! I use hiking shoes but they're not perfect for everything.

[@topwaterfilms]

@@SteadiRed Yeah, the turf type shoes work really well when starting and stopping. I feel very confident on wet grass with them on. I can just concentrate on the framing of the shot.

[@twotone3070]

That was a rugby ball at 6:00, that's probably why he tried to avoid it, I know I do. Same weight at a football, but spiteful pointy ends. Great interaction with the cat, absolute comedy gold, well played. Subbed.

[@SteadiRed]

i think i would avoid anything coming at me like that hahaha. thanks man! I didn't"t think anyone watched that far

[@twotone3070]

@@SteadiRed If I enjoyed the content and the effort I like to let the ad roll at the end.

[@lethinh282]

Main key... always had one guy assistant camera. They’ll save for ur life.

[@SteadiRed]

definitely

[@migueltena1499]

What I learned? Take my time to check out the area where I’m supposed to do my work before to start. Wow I feel bad about those people. ☹️

[@MrPhilbautista]

You missed the biggest steadicam fail... the one where the world's fastest man, Usain Bolt, gets taken out by a camera man on a Segway. That one could've been disastrous but good thing for Bolt he got up without injury and even checked on the camera man.

[@SteadiRed]

i did find that one but it was not a steadicam he was using so i skipped it.

[@billzidis2656]

Scary... I can't even imagine what would I do if something like this happens to me

[@SteadiRed]

I know how you feel. I went down since making this and it was awful. luckily I was fine and nothing was damaged.

[@billzidis2656]

😭

[@skylakemedia]

I got so fired up at the one at 4:00

[@SteadiRed]

agreed!

[@Hacktivator]

Yeah...that's an immature, irresponsible and asshole bully who's got low self-esteem.

[@fajarjarjarbinks1946]

psg: the curse of a steady cam operator

[@SteadiRed]

😁

[@punzstudios2234]

i really enjoyed it..would love to see more reaction videos

[@SteadiRed]

thanks man!

[@vasiliyivanishvili9025]

Major rule - your shoes must be perfect! Nice greetings from Russia! ;)

[@ZiggyBoyz]

OMG.. LOL..Hope you will not make those mistake.. Keep your awesome content flowing Bro 👊🤣

[@SteadiRed]

I hope so too...hahaha

[@paradoxxaudiovisualproduct9430]

My heart goes out to the gear. Can i give the eulogy? Any owner operator insurance cover this?

[@SteadiRed]

Hahaha. For the most part it would be insured under the production insurance. It would also be covered under the gear insurance most ops have. Although I would rather use the productions 😉

[@henryrileyproductions]

Great entertaining video! Love your insights, good job.

[@SteadiRed]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@alistorm946]

I did not think "Step on the football field, prepare to get tackled" applied to cheerleaders as well

[@SteadiRed]

Hahaha

[@prof.purpur]

Great work mate👌

[@SteadiRed]

Thanks man!

[@ThePerezenator]

YES. Thx my dude

[@joetaylor3563]

Final Note: Your cat appears to have not moved during the entire presentation.

[@SteadiRed]

Hahaha, she doesn't move much in general

[@JTM3DIA]

What camera did you use?

[@SteadiRed]

its the black magic pocket cinema camera 4k. im very happy with it

[@JTM3DIA]

Nice! I use a canon 200DMK2 for video right now.

[@Funny0Films]

i was on set for the crash at 2:11. what an awful day.

[@SteadiRed]

im sure that was really scary, glad your ok!

[@laaber3444]

My god, what was the reaction from crew? Was that the intended trajectory of the truck? Jesus. Stunts are one thing i don't fuck around with on set.

[@jopvandekam]

That soccer player is so anoying. The cameramen make it possible for him to do this professionally. Have some respect.

[@SteadiRed]

I agree, and even just not hurting another person for no reason.

[@yueshen9606]

Get gears insured, and when something wrong happens, leave it and jump. This is the key.LOL

[@SteadiRed]

I agree 👍

[@markm_fpv]

I've enjoyed watching but I feel bad for those Steadicam operators that got injured:(

[@SteadiRed]

i agree 😞. glad everyone seemed ok after

[@laaber3444]

That sunt shot was soo dangerous, who was the coordinator on that my god....

[@SteadiRed]

yeah, definitely something was not right

[@awofilms]

Rubber band + Weight + Camera + Stupidity = Nice way of getting fired as a Steadicam operator

[@SteadiRed]

hahaha

[@johnbuzzmoyer8479]

www.nbstabilizer.com/arm This arm is, in fact, being used by some very highly regarded operators currently. This was an unfortunate break in the socket block as stated. The choice by the one demonstrating the equipment in the way was not very smart.

[@playmatee1]

5:27 here the drone pilots come in like oeff but hahah .......

[@playmatee1]

always have a guider

[@joetaylor3563]

If that was in America, that Stedicam op could sue that player and even the team for all sorts of damages.

[@SteadiRed]

Definitely 😁

[@julianwi4571]

I think the last one is on a roof of a building and he trips over a lightning rod

[@julianwi4571]

Love your Video

[@SteadiRed]

ohhh, is that what it is.

[@F1lmtwit]

Your cat will sleep threw anything...

[@SteadiRed]

hahaha, that is very true

[@austinelmore448]

People got to stop messing around with these type of people

[@SteadiRed]

i agree!

[@WansBorneo]

Wooow... amazing

[@MavisionPoland]

Thanks for my 5 min 11:12 😂😂

[@SteadiRed]

hahaha, im glad your ok!

[@jameselias]

Is this what the new generation of Steadicam ops are doing to promote themselves!? Shame... though, the first one you showed did fail because the arm was badly engineered. He might have looked stupid but he didn't do anything that should have caused the arm to snap like that. I believe it was a rod end...

[@Oakleaf700]

I wish more people on you tube used steadier cameras! - they have no idea how spinning the camera about and jiggling it about makes viewers motion sick...I realise they cannot afford a legit steadicam, but less movement is useful.

[@SteadiRed]

I agree. I feel like tripods are often underrated

[@bobblearoudtheboy]

Hi there Red. Cool Video just a few items. The soccer player looks like a guy called Mo Salah. He is well know for making a muslim prayer like move to celebrate. I think this is what happend here.. The other game you refered to as soccer is actually Rugby. I thought you should know. Anyway have a great day.. Cheers Mikkel

[@SteadiRed]

ohhh, that makes a lot more sense! thanks for telling me

[@omarcreatives]

Something breaks

[@SteadiRed]

hahaha

[@allyoliver5760]

I don’t understand why the football player would do that, I hope he paid for the repairs to the sled

[@SteadiRed]

yeah, I don't understand it.

[@twotone3070]

That'll be because he got paid more money in the time it took him to do it than the cost of the rig he broke. Complete a hole.

[@elvisuarezdcocina]

Lindo gatito🐾🐾🐾

[@messiahs84]

Bottom Line: this could have been avoided😆

[@SteadiRed]

hahaha, yup i guess i could have saved some time with that

[@fragnshrapnels]

When on grass use soccer shoes.

[@SteadiRed]

people keep saying that. I have to get a pair

[@fragnshrapnels]

@@SteadiRed best investment you will ever make. If you project is only on grass or muddy/hilly location. Don't go on concrete or any other smooth surface tho.

i want to cloab with u
