ABSTRACT

A camera can be mounted on aircraft, cars, motorcycles, jet skis, boats, parasails, and elsewhere, but you’ve got your work cut out for you. I will list a few things that are a must when mounting a camera. Remember that a camera and lens usually cost $50,000 to $500,000. No oops allowed. If you want to be able to say, “I’ll be back,” do it right. Here are a few hints. There are many ways to rig a vehicle. First, if you can get equipment from Modern, American, Matthews, or Norm’s Studio Equipment (in North Hollywood, CA); either rent it or buy it. It will pay for itself over and over again-not only by the rental revenue but also by the impression it leaves with directors of photography, directors, and producers. You will look like a professional, and we all know what looks can do.
