Man you're an ATEM magician by now. This is sorcery. After watching Caleb rigs I thought, what could make him go "What is this!?" Well, now I'm a believer.
I’m a big advocate for loving using the gear that you need for a job…I love my Peak Design backpack and camera strap, MacBook Pro, Aputure 300DMKII, Canon EF 35mm 1.4, Pelican Air 1615 etc…I loved some of the ATEM mini pro’s functionality, but not the overall user experience…hence the rig to make it something I love using!
Very good thinking. I am designing a small flightcase but as I do everything else on the standard rail system like you, I am going to rethink one or two things. Almost all things you use I also have planned in my flightcase. I never use just one camera on my jobs and usually also do the PA audio for the event so being very small is not that important. I also like a bigger multiview monitor. I guess everyone should make it as it is needed and I think I stick to the flight case but I love your open on rig solution. Thank you for the video.
Yeah, the Mini Pro has its use-cases for portable solutions, and sounds like you're dealing with some bigger set ups! Send us a pic of your flight case when it's built!
You could actually build this rig but inside a flight case, with all the cabling routed perfectly, so that you could put the case itself on a tripod...!!! Challenging but not impossible.
Cannon released a 'webcam' utility to prevent your Cannon camera from turning itself off. The should eliminant the need for the Elgato Cam/USB connector and solve your auto-shutoff problem.
Yes- very handy! I do have the Canon webcam utility installed, but in most use cases I am running the 5D4’s HDMI into the ATEM Pro/Extreme, hence the USB connection keeps it love, but also enables remote control of exposure/focus etc
I did! And since this video, have disassembled it and used all the parts in a bigger 4U rack! My mini is now a freestanding AUX switcher that I use for routing- very handy device to record to, or route multiple laptops into a single feed!
As the lighting is coming from top left to bottom right as your can see from the shadow, and it is probably a focus and not a flood, the space behind his face is less likely to be washed out... If you had a flood illuminating him it would have more chance of washing out the white. Still it takes skill to arrange
I've watched this video and pt2 like 10times just to really study the items used and help me with building my own around the atem mini pro as a portable rig. Very greatful to this video. Subbed and notification turned on💯
@@jas_bataille didn't watch it all, but paring it with a camera on a shoulder and some 4g connection, you'd just need to stream directly to an RTMP for the studio to add to their livestream... so yea, a versatile wireless ENG rig
original and very useful idea... to improve it a little more, try building it like a backpack; I was thinking of something like this to cover street protests; another idea is to have these control buttons to rotate the camera slightly around, to show the surroundings in detail, or even control the zoom
I haven't tried the YoloBox, but its form factor does look interesting! I've tried Sling Studio and Teradek Vidiu's via Air:Mix in the past but ultimately got rid of them. What I do like about the ATEM + Companion setup is just how widely supported it is - you can build it out as big (or in this case, as small) as you need.
Glad you like it! All parts are listed on my blog under 4 Amazon lists that detail the type and quantity you need to replicate this! davidjoshuaford.com/production/atem-mini-pro-rig/
Like many others, I keep coming back to this video for ideas. Well done! I do have a question about the D-Tap battery. At 10:24 you mention the battery is getting low and you are able to connect a power adapter to keep going. Is that power going to charge the battery which is powering everything on the rig? Or is there an alternate way to distribute all the power? TIA.
The battery is charged separately via usbc. The rig has a female 2.1x5.5mm DC barrel at the root, and connects either to the battery via the custom D-tap adapter as shown, or else to an AC adapter's male 2.1x5.5mm barrel.
Very cool setup 👍. The only wireless aspects here are the WiFi connection and wireless mic if i am right. Video is still via cable. This is intended to be a single camera all-in-one streaming solution ifi am right
It's intended as a multicam streaming solution. This particular set up utilizes a Teradek Bolt to receive wireless video from the main wide-shot camera position. There's also a Teradek Cube, used for sending wireless video of the MultiView back out wirelessly to tablets. The Canon 5DmkIV is wired since it's sitting atop the rig.
@@davidjoshuaford oh i see . I didn't catch that. So you are able to record as well as stream... I use Wirecast for streaming with a thunderbolt dock to that takes in two cameras via Hollyland wireless HDMI units and Magewell HDMI2USB capture card. So getting different angles means someone has to move the camera and another has to switch on the laptop. Your rig is food for thought.. i will view again. Thank you
There is a setting in the "red Menu 5, HDMI Display" and choose the last option "Camera + Monitor symbol. With this setting the camera does not turn off when using live mode video, during streaming. If you are recording, the recording turn off, but not the live...
@@davidjoshuaford Not i thet HDMI camera setting. I conduct 3 hours Zoom webinars without turn off. Just go to the menu, HDMI Display and put in the last option down. If you record it still stop recording after 30 minutes, and you can push the record button again, but camera still live.
I do like the versatility of the ATEM ecosystem, and most of all the ISO recording ability. I haven't played with the YoloBox, but would be curious to check it out!
This is excellent, and very modular. Love it! How do you connect cameras into the rig? Assuming they're done wirelessly, is that a problem with lag compared to wired sources?
Just plug cameras via HDMI straight into the ATEM. If you want to use wireless, check the units latency - the Teradeck pictured here only adds about 4ms from memory.
Hey John! It certainly could rack up that's true! But I wanted to find something scalable from a ~$50 tablet mount with cheeseboard, right up to all the more expensive Teradek devices. So hopefully there's some inspiration in there to adapt! All parts are listed as Amazon affiliate links on my blog - davidjoshuaford.com/production/atem-mini-pro-rig/
W.O.W. That's actually kind of a thing that I need. But maybe I'm about to put some adjustment because the most common situation that I work is to shoot at the school, so if I'm gonna finish the live-production in the classroom, the angle that in your plan might not serve me well. emmm...let me think about it. Anyway ,Thx for sharing such amazing idea there.
@@davidjoshuaford well, since the rig is an all-in-one set with single cam, so that would not be practical when I shoot in the classroom. I usually need two or more cams to finish the work. I placed two in a line with one at the front and one at the tail on one side so they won't shoot each other. And sometimes one more in the middle to give different angle. I'm now having only one set of Hollyland 400s pro wireless transfer, so it's not gonna work for me to do some live-producing stuff. But it's what I'm considering about in the future ha.
Hasn't yet...but will keep you updated! The most vulnerable connection imo is the USBC into the MacBook Pro, but that's going to be the case either way, so I'd tape it down for a day-long shoot.
@@davidjoshuaford Will you be betting your life on it that it’ll get you through that well paid gig ? I like spaghetti with duct tape too in mg own spare time but losing face and reputation over a vanity patchwork with a client - nope. Its a surefire way of getting out of business quickly and bad advice to newcomers. GL with your channel.
I suspect the WiFi range on the Pi would be unreliable and it’s good to have a dedicated router, but there’s plenty more that the pi could be leveraged for that’s true!
@@davidjoshuaford You are right. I’ve never tried one of those wifi switch router hat, maybe the wifi is really unreliable. But just incase they do, it would be wonderful to have a great 3in1. A big maybe😂
I wrote you before & you didn’t respond back to me. I’m going yo try one more time then leave it along. I have purchased the Atomos cast X & the Ninja 5 since then. Just the other day Sony came out with a camera control for the FX3 & FX30. I recently purchased the FX30. I would love to see your thoughts process towards putting together a rig for a system for these new developments. I also hope to get the teradeck spark 4K. I have a 9.1 video monitor as well. Since your post. Have you look at some of these other 5k streaming devices?
@@davidjoshuaford We use an Atem Mini Pro to livestream Sunday services at Vision. Ours is a much simpler use-case but I learn a lot about what can be done from yours! Hope you are well mate. Jol.
@@jolyoncox Thanks Jolyon! Do you guys have a Stream Deck at all? Or you'll have to check out the mobile phone version so you can switch from the front row! lol
Hey Dice, I’m building a profile to control the Extreme at the moment. As far as rigging goes, I’ll probably develop a package that’s more desktop bound than something like this rig that’s tripod mountable.
Great question - the setup is network based, so the ATEM has a dedicated network address. Companion will send commands to that specific address, so the router is necessary to direct the local network.
Great question Adrian. The hottest part is the Teradek Cube, so that and the Bolt are mounted with gaps for airflow. The HDMI splitter and the 5-port network switch don't get hot. The Streaming Bridge gets warm, but not too much, and it's actually separated from the Network Switch by its rubber feet. And the ATEM is fine - airflow all round and not blocking the vents. The USBC dock gets hot when the full 100W USBC PD is flowing through it to the Macbook, but again, it's mounted separately with airflow around it. The whole rig is open-plan for airflow, and ease of access/ re-rigging.
This is awesome. How much run time do you get with the V-mount? That seems like a lot of stuff to power off a single battery. Also is there a way to "hot-swap" without losing signal? Can you run AC with the Vmount as a back-up or do you have to go down to swap?
Hi Ben, you can buy plates that are hot swappable. I get 60-90min depending on how much stuff is turned on. Battery is mostly for convenience on short shoots where we’re moving around or bringing in a remote client. For mission critical live-streaming I’d use AC power.
Hey Oleg, link to parts is in the description... the cage and wiring would scale from approx $50-500 depending on how much you put into it, then add on the devices themselves.
Hi David.. does this setup allow you to carry a moving camera (handheld or stabilizer) and switch simultaneously to fixed shot angles seamlessly as you move showing the moving angle? Do you have a demo of the skiing this
Hi Kishore, this rig would ideally be on a tripod with a fixed-shot camera mounted to it, or maybe carried hand held without a camera mounted. Best to use a wireless video transmitter to bring a handheld or gimbal camera angle into the rig.
@@davidjoshuaford thanks David. I've been trying to figure out a man live stream setup with one mobile angle and one fixed using Wirecast.. i came across a couple of options where i can remote control Wirecast from my phone, but so far it hasn't been reliable on the field.. still trying to figure out.
Yes, I bought the Sling Studio when it first came out, but I wasn’t happy with it. I then bought three Teradek VidiU Pros to run via Live:Air on an iPad Pro, but found that really unreliable for both the app crashing and WiFi dropouts. Hence just went the ATEM route. I do think the control interface for the ATEM Minis are archaic (hence why I’ve spent time programming Stream Deck/Companion profiles to control the ATEM in my other videos on this channel), but I like that all the processing is done in hardware, and having wired connections for video inputs and Ethernet.
Many monies, Bake Agency :) but - I had some of the more expensive items already, like the Teradeks. The rig is scalable, from ~$50 for a basic tripod mount arrangement, up to several hundred for all the cage and power parts. Full breakdown here: davidjoshuaford.com/production/atem-mini-pro-rig/
There are times I take the MV from the HDMI out and feed it into zoom, or the program out so that the USB is free for recording (also it’s just super handy having a tiny backup device, separate to the rig)
I’m using the ATEM Mini Pro ISO which has MultiView out of the HDMI port. The original ATEM Mini doesn’t include multiview, but you can set the hdmi out to Preview. Not sure that’s the question you’re asking though?
Man you're an ATEM magician by now. This is sorcery. After watching Caleb rigs I thought, what could make him go "What is this!?" Well, now I'm a believer.
The ultimate "but wait, there's more!" presentation. Brilliant! Such a great rig.

Great work 🏆
Dudeness.. this awesome.. how many monies invested in this?
Many monies, Bake Agency :) but - I had some of the more expensive items already, like the Teradeks. The rig is scalable, from ~$50 for a basic tripod mount arrangement, up to several hundred for all the cage and power parts. Full breakdown here: davidjoshuaford.com/production/atem-mini-pro-rig/
@@davidjoshuaford nice.. will check out the break down..
Not sure why you would need the camlink if you are using the ATEM Pro?
There are times I take the MV from the HDMI out and feed it into zoom, or the program out so that the USB is free for recording (also it’s just super handy having a tiny backup device, separate to the rig)
Crazy setup…
Wow this really helps Great Job

Hi Tehal, the web browser in the iPad is running my Companion Profile, available here: davidjoshuaford.com/companion/
very awesome mate ... thanks
My pleasure!
便利そうだけど熱が心配💦
ファン付きでケースにラックマウントしちゃえば蓋を開けるだけでええかもなぁ
参考になりました
Howdy - there's plenty of airflow since the rig is not in a case.
Very Impressive!!!!!
You can keep canons on all the time using magic lantern firmware ;) your cans will get hot....
I thought ML stopped at 5D3? I also like being able to set the exposure/focus etc remotely :)
How can you have preview with atem mini? HDMI splitter used for this??
I’m using the ATEM Mini Pro ISO which has MultiView out of the HDMI port. The original ATEM Mini doesn’t include multiview, but you can set the hdmi out to Preview. Not sure that’s the question you’re asking though?
very, very cool - compact. A good idea
Thanks Volker!
This is amazing!! Very innovative 🔥🔥
You are a genius.
And you are very kind :)
