David Calson Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Why do Grips hold flags on both sides of Steadicam operators? Is it to break up wind hitting the operator?
Premium Member Adrian Sierkowski Posted September 17, 2015 Premium Member Posted September 17, 2015 Often; yes. Sometimes too it can be to shield glare off of the onboard monitor. But generally, wind (though you can also use nets as opposed to flags)
Stuart Brereton Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 It's generally nets that grips use as a wind break. A flag can all too easily get whipped around by the wind and end up causing more harm than good.
