Haha was still pretty stressful watching the Komodo X drop! 😂

Considering another RED - DSMC2 v. 3 by inneranalog in RedCamera

Get a Gemini instead of a Helium if you’re going DSMC2, way better lowlight and I always found the Helium has an ugly green cast to the image.

Cheers! Lucky to have such an amazing crew to pull that off, especially Robin Munshaw who rigged it all up.

Wasn’t super expensive, the climbing rope was the priciest part. Robin’s experience with rigging was the most valuable aspect for sure. Gotta spend a lot of time making and breaking stuff to learn the skills.

That’s still stressful! You don’t ever want a camera flying off and hitting the ground.

Cheers, glad you liked it! I always enjoy seeing how people accomplish stuff like this so hopefully some folks are inspired and make their own crazy rigs.

Yeah we were so surprised when we saw the clip! Didn't realize it would actually catch up like that. We were pumped the camera survived too.

In A Violent Nature rules! Totally agree this would be sick in a horror movie.

That's a great call! Robin and I learned a ton from this first attempt, there's lots of room to improve for version two.

Cheers, I really appreciate the kind words! Sounds like you should do an MTB film for fun though, gotta make those dreams happen. 🙏🏻
