Nick NormanButler Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Hello there, Long time reader, first time poster here! I'm looking for some tips on best practice for filming an artist on horseback, learning how to be a cowboy. He may be there for an extended period of time so I need to get fairly good coverage. My production is a network documentary so budget is limited (I am the director, operator and sound recordist). With that in mind, my plan so far is: Hire a quad bike and ride passenger with primary camera so we can keep up with him. Perhaps let the tyres down a bit to take the bumps out of the ride. We'll be lower than the rider's eyeline but I don't see what else we can use...? Would love some advice on lipstick cameras to put on the horse for a POV shot and/or a CU of the artist's face as he learns to throw a rope etc. What do you think? Any tips gratefully received. Best, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Williams Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 1)A long lens? 2)A fake shot with the camera looking up at the rider for close ups? 3)Camera car on the road with the rider off the road? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
