ROUNDIE-RIG, OR WHIRLYBIRD CAM.

For a recent shoot, the Director wanted a 360 , nodal move around a variety of subjects and objects, on green screen.

Having tested this a year before, I built a larger version of the rig to achieve the shots.

The center of the platform is static, while the camera and green screen are linked to each other.

This is different from rotating the subject, as the lighting changes on the subject without the use of dimmers or having to move the lights during the shot.
