Great video, On top of all that hauling, setting up hi-rollers ,bags, and C-stands, the "Best Boy Grip" also gets to fill out his departments time-cards at the end of the day. Although this job takes a toll mentally, it beats up mostly your body. I have loved going to work every single day of my career. Time to hang up my belt make room for new bloods.

@@CALIKAT82 I started working for a film industry mobile generator company in 1986. Changing oil, air cleaner, delivery and pick up all hours. Good luck, if you really want it, you'll get it.
@Rodrigo Ashton That's a great accomplishment son.
Very helpful. I got a chance to volunteer on a major set of a show thats running on it's 12th year. I'm forever thankful to the Key Grip J. Hatch. Thank You.
Let me see YOU set up a camera right with just a paper clip and an elastic band. Then I'll be impressed

What are the hand tools that are needed for grips. like claps,tape ect can you list them please. Also can you make a video building a fly swatter attaching it to a boom lift.
Its peculiar that you know what a Fly Swatter is but you don't know what a Grip has in their belt.
Anthony Mancini a midget, a skateboard and a piece of rope.
Awesome video, Defiantly helped in deciding wether to join a rigging crew or a grip crew.
Awesome video
Great, thanks
I got a question about the camera crew. Not to be dark, but say they film me in a magic show doing a deadly trick but it goes wrong and the results are too disturbing for viewers, what would be your procedure as the crew?
Christopher Demmer are you insinuating that shows are shot and viewed simultaneously?
Ugh
everyone looks no older than 21. Must be student films.
Uncle Bernie thanks!!! I was 32 when this was shot!
