Strange title? Yes. I never thought I could
describe a piece of film equipment that way, but it's true.
I have just upgraded from a cobra crane
jib to the Kessler crane KC8 for our fitness advert shoot in Stazione Lepolda Firenze.
Wow it really is a great piece of kit. The
difference from my old one is massive. For such a lightweight and portable
crane the smooth flowing floating shots look awesome. Production value goes
through the roof when creatively used crane shots are employed. With some
careful practice you don’t need to hire a specialized operator and bust the
budget.
