Nick NormanButler Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 I have a shot I need to do which involves someone walking against a green screen. I've thought about using the treadmills in a gym but they have too much paraphenalia in the way like the distance/calorie burner display panel which will get in my (mid) shot. Does anyone know another way of doing this? Ideally I need a treadmill without all that stuff. Thanks, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Hyslop Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 it toke us 10 minutes to take it a part then we tape it with green dicifix Cool stuff. I hope you'll pardon what may sound like silly questions. First, what's "dicifix"? I browsed through the photo album (hope you don't mind :-). In photo #36, why do you have something wrapped around the eyepiece? Is it to protect the viewfinder from the sun? I like the silhouette shot of the camera - very cool!

Aideen McCarthy Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Hey I was thinking of using travelators in a music video to be shot in London. Need to be longer than just a gym one as there is a dance routine involved. Any ideas where I could find two 20ft long ones to hire? They use them for stage shows all the time but I can't seem to locate a rental company for them. Any info on this much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Aideen, I ended up doing it on the cheap: taking apart a second hand travelator and painting it green but I did find these guys in research who may offer some tips? http://www.hirefitness.co.uk/film_event_hire.php?id=18 Joking aside you could also contact the production company that does 'Gladiators' and see where they get their famous travelators from? Good luck Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
