Gimbal Operator and Technician

It's not often that something is created in our industry which completely changes how you craft shots, work on-set, tell stories, and accomplish projects. Gimbals, and more specifically the Freefly Systems MōVI and DJI Ronin 2, have become those tools for me. Whether it's attached to an ATV chasing actors on bicycles, a process trailer for a music video, my 4Runner to go anywhere, or operated in my hands, the MōVI allows me to be extremely creative while delivering the Director's vision.

The Capabilities

Thanks to Freefly's "Toad in the Hole" system, the MōVI can get you a wide range of shots with the same tool utilizing a quick-release system. The speed of this system allows me to track an actor handheld, then clamp it onto a dolly or jib which turns the MōVI into a remote head. For DP's that prefer to operate with wheels, we have the option to do that with Alpha Wheels. This have been the preferred wheels allowing me to dial in the sensitivity for each shot.  The Flowcine Blackarm allows you to do even more. The best way to explain this is a beefy steadicam arm that attaches to speed rail. Car to car for running footage, ATVs for sports and off road, and a dolly when you can't lay down track.  

Be sure to contact me with any gear specific questions.
