not shot on RED, but very cool - and very discouraging to anyone who wants to do their own Steadicam work without years of experience. ha ha

 
That's awesome. What a great perspective to watch the shot unfold. Thanks for sharing!
 
first part is steady or traveling?...

What is awesome is the reduced space and sound, steady with 3d rig and focus assistant...
 
Here's the rig , Operated by Larry McConkey, a steadi-god IMO.

It would have been much less taxing with dual Epics.... but I digress.

I thought the boom op did a good job too, although I wonder how much of that audio was used.
 
That was amazing!

I can't believe how smooth that was, one camera i'm impressed but two, wow. I can see why he would have earn the nickname steadi-god.

I put on my first steadicam at NAB this year just so I knew what it was like for the operator, I now know I couldn't do it! Now when i'm directing I can be far more realistic in what i'm asking for, highly recommended for any director!

I loved how the walls moved to make room for the rotation around the girl that sat down in the chair too, sets, gotta love them.

+1 for boom operator too hahaha
 
Absolutely amazing!!
The wall moving for the shot was pretty amazing as well..
Gotta love the big shows.... And the amazing people that are the A-Team

In the Background at the end.. "5-6 more and we're good!"

What a shot, can't imagine how long it takes to block an entire continuous shot like that..
 
Thanks for sharing that. Just amazing with the weight of that rig. He was out of breath at the end as if he ran a marathon.

I always enjoy watching behind the scenes footage, but this one was spectacular.

Not only the wall is moving. The cupboard is shifted as well (you can see one of the extras doing it), and the table in the middle of the room is completely removed first and replaced later.
You gotta love this kind of shots!
