Hey all,

A big part of my project this quarter was based on the conceptualization and construction of a few different film tools that would help me immensely when shooting. The most important tool I could have created, and legitimately started to, was the steadicam system. I had everything ready to create the rig except the specific Traxxas gimbal and the plate to mount the camera ($60 I was not going to spend until I could track down the part I needed). I looked everywhere for two, three weeks. People suggested I try eBay, so I did and was unable to find the correct model type I needed to work with the holes I had drilled/the skateboard bearing I got (thanks for the offer Kevin, literally was approached with one the next day after speaking with you). Super duper unfortunate because I was really looking forward to both the finished construction and utilization of this hardware. There’s no doubt that I’m still going to try and find the proper Traxxas bracket so I can complete the steadicam and actually use it in some productions… I still hold it as one of the most valuable pieces of camera equipment so there’s no reason for me to give up on this idea — even if I can’t use it for this project.

I really wish I had gotten the chance/tried harder after week 7 to continue its materialization but I needed to put way more time into filming and editing. Probably a good decision, no matter how much fun I would have had using it.
