About the Book:
Don't buy or rent your film equipment-build it! Even if you only use this book to make two sandbags — you'll make back your money.
Construct professional-quality camera rigs on your own with this comprehensive, step-by-step guide and stop wasting your money on overpriced equipment rentals and purchases! Subtitled How to Build Your Own Camera Cranes, Car Mounts, Stabilizers, Dollies, and More!, filmmaker and teacher Dan Selakovich guides you through the creation of jibs, dollies, cranes, car-mounts, sandbags, tripods, and more.
The Features of Killer Camera Rigs That You Can Build include:
• Build inexpensive but reliable and sturdy rigs-including cranes, dollies, stabilizers, car-mounts, and more; most for much less than $100!
• Includes over 2,000 photographs with clear step-by-step instructions, safety guidelines, material lists, and tool lists for each rig.
What people say:
"The singular beauty of this book is that Mr. Selakovich has successfully dedicated himself to producing clarity with every page." — Michael Ferris, Camera Operator/DP, Die Hard
"For filmmakers who like to shoot their films with a mobile camera without spending a fortune on equipment rentals, this book is a great gift indeed. I highly recommend it for its clarity and common sense." — Kris Malkiewicz, Cinematographer/Author
"If there's one thing Killer Camera Rigs has done for me, it has started me thinking outside of the box. Not that I had loads of name-brand equipment lying around, but having been in school (and therefore having access to a lot of it) made me think that I needed lots of it to make the stories I wanted to. And yes, some of it's nice, and some things really are worth the money (after a new lens, the Vinten Vision Blue and a decent set of sticks in my priority purchase).. Killer Camera Rigs You Can Build is a great idea if you are really looking to create more flexibility for your story-telling, and you will start thinking differently about your DIY filmmaking." — Microfilmmaker Magazine
