thanks for that, great tips, by the way that last one, is it due to the righty tighty rule, as any weight applied while underslung in that position technically will rotate the knob to loosten the grip, not tighten it, as when the rod is forward of the riser tube.
if I hear that a cider is coming on set I would think that a cold glass needs to be following at some point. Call Mr Sands, a grip brother has plugged in a light. Keep it going. Good stuff.
Hi Martin, I really enjoy these videos - I shoot stills, as an amature and can attest to older Matthews equipment. I have a few Beefy Baby stands and c stand with arms, and wondered if it is acceptable or okay to place a sand bag on the orange braces. I noticed you have done that in this video - I think my bags are 15 lbs. I rarely bag the beefy baby stands since I shoot inside mostly. Their weight is a bonus in my opinion.
Glad to see the videos back in landscape orientation.
Thank you Martin for sharing valuable tips.
Prep and good communacation
Martin! thanks for these tips!🙌🏼
Super useful video for someone less but partially experienced on set like myself. Thanks Richard!
Love your videos! So helpful.
good info ,i really appreciate it, I like your positive vibes,thank you Martin !
Thought there was a fly on my phone, niice
nice .... set callout protocol so you don't look like a rookie on set... much to learn
Thank you for doing these videos! Great information.
Okay... but why does it MATTER if the arm is in front or in back of the C stand?
Because the weight can screw or unscrew the arm.
i learn more and more thx!!! martin!!!
Good stuff keep doing what you think is best. Also, vertical or landscape I’m happy which ever way serves the story 😉

Great grip tip's Thank you
Quick c-stand question. What to do when the gobo head pinches on my Westcott Center Jaw Vise Clamp? I don't want to jam just anything in there
