Hello - in early September I will be filming an all-night fight sequence between 2 characters, where the scene takes place under a rain rig (most likely, two small rain towers). We are going for a handheld look - not too shaky but just to give it a little energy. Typically, I would use an Easyrig for this but I'm not sure the best way to rig my camera well for operation under these circumstances to keep the camera safe and lens clean. I suppose I could just bag the camera and put a hole for the Easyrig cable to come through, and cinch it well with rubber bands around the cable, but I'm worried about water coming through. Thankfully, I will have a focus puller doing their thing wirelessly so I won't have to worry about that. If anyone has any tips for this kind of situation, I would greatly appreciate your input!
