Video Slider

This post really has nothing to do with Abby or Reid. Just me nerding out on a new piece of hardware. In my video production class we bought a new stabilizer called a slider. We have a really big version of one of these called a track dolly but we needed something shorter and more portable. So we purchased a Glide Gear track slider. The slider can be mounted on a tripod or set on any surface whether its level or not. You attach a ball head mount and your good to go. We just got it at the end of last week and I wanted to test it out a bit so I took some footage in the backyard. Really short video if your interested. Odds are I'll be using it in some of the video we do of Reid so if your wondering how we get a certain shot this is it. We have a busy week, I have 4 broadcasts at school that my video class is doing, we have our sonogram on tuesday to find out the gender, and Abby and I are videoing another wedding this Saturday in KC. Going to be a long week.

Here is a picture of the slider. Link to the site is HERE.
