5 Animals Kung Fu

I've always disliked shooting action with a gimbal. Tried it twice and it just ate up so much time getting the right shots and movements. Although, I was a bit unfair since I never actually operated it myself. And then I worked with Chris Cowan, who showed me the way xD. I picked up a gimbal and decided to give it a try myself. So this short is more of a test to see if I could accomplish the movement and shots that I would normally accomplish with tripod/dolly set up. We spent 2 half days and 1 pick up day to create this little action short.
My assessment; Tripod/dolly is easier to shoot with but takes longer to set up and can't get certain shots a gimbal could. Gimbal, on the other hand, is quicker and at times smoother, but it still doesn't give me the snappy reaction a traditional set up would.

Malay, saw you on corridor crew and immediately came to check out your channel... this was fantastic. Also Jay, you were awesome in the hero academia tribute with Gui. I've watched so many times

[@MalayKim]

Thank you for the love and support!

[@allthingsnerdy5474]

so chris cowan is certified gimbal master then😂

[@ArtSchoolDropouts]

Yeah dude, give the gimbal a chance! It's definitely a different tool to achieve a particular look and this one, I think, really works well for the kung fu shapes visual! Good job to everyone on here!

[@MalayKim]

It still doesn't give me the same satisfaction of a tripod/dolly set up but it gets the job done.

[@ArtSchoolDropouts]

@@MalayKim Hmm, maybe it's your style but hey, doesn't hurt to try something new, right? And this one worked well so at least it's in your tool belt now!
