Josh, thank you so much for sharing these tips. I will be purchasing a Glidecam and have no idea where to start. These tips will are super helpful and will save me so much time. So appreciated! Will definitely be rewatching this video upon purchase.
Very useful video. It reinforced the importance of stuff that I already knew but wasn't practising correctly AND introduced new very useful techniques. Thank you - you are a star!
Ive watched tons of glidecam tutorial type videos and it was when I watched this one and put it to use that i felt like I finally have a grasp on using my flycam jr! Thank you!
The long hair suits you really well by the way. I only just now realized "Oh, that's the same guy whose older videos I watched just a couple of days ago!"
great series! I will say that it would be helpful if we had a video on how you built your steadicam. I think the biggest trouble people tend to have is finding a steadicam that is as easy to micro adjust as yours, so it would be a great help
I have a question about my steadicam! So I am pretty sure I have it balanced and the drop test times at about seconds. But when I use it I feel like I don't have any control on the direction that it goes! It just pans and swivels as I walk. I don't really know what else to try. Do I just need practice? Any tips would be much appreciated!
What do u recommend Traditional steadicam with 2 weight (like glidecam hd1000) or with 3 weight (like iFootage Wildcat II)? What is difference? (i think that 3 weight steadicam seems little wobblier than traditional 2 weight steadicam)
I found out that Sony 28-70 kit lens is so light that you can refocus it and zoom in and out without rebalancing the whole thing. Also this lens rocks for filming if you'll be using a camera that can handle dark lenses like Sony a7s series. Since that lens starts from 3.5 aperture. Also kit lens has noiseless refocusing which will save your videos.
i just bought a glidecam 200 hd for my sony a6500. have you used that combination. ive had some trouble balancing. do you know if its because the camera is so small?
question: If I want to track something coming towards me but want an upward angle for the whole shot, can I deliberately unbalance the Steadicam so it naturally tilts back and upwards or will it not work ? Thanks
First! Just kidding, is that a Laing P-0 something? Have you used the glidecam xr-pro? Both are the same price on amazon. Thank you for sharing the secrets Josh.
Any chance you 'd be willing to share which units you got the pieces from? I'm especially curious about the sled (I believe that's what it's called.... the piece on which the camera is mounted). I really like the fact that there is only one locking screw and one adjustment screw.
nice vid bro!! especially the audio your sound is so clean at first when you start to walk i thought my volume was zero..then when you start to talk i was amazed..lol
Good video and helpful tipps. thx man. But bro... cmon 😄 „glide cam secrets that no glide cam operator wants to share with you ...“???!! Haha ... that’s a bit over the top ... There are many cam operators that would share these informations. Anyway... it’s a helpful Video, appreciate it:)

greeting from Mexico !
Very useful video. It reinforced the importance of stuff that I already knew but wasn't practising correctly AND introduced new very useful techniques. Thank you - you are a star!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very good and honest. Helpful and you feel the narrator wants to help you out and not focus attention and interest and wasted time only on himself.
Ive watched tons of glidecam tutorial type videos and it was when I watched this one and put it to use that i felt like I finally have a grasp on using my flycam jr! Thank you!
That tilting method was super helpful. Thank you. Was getting super frustrated trying to learn how to properly use the glidecam.
The long hair suits you really well by the way. I only just now realized "Oh, that's the same guy whose older videos I watched just a couple of days ago!"
so clear and concise!!
I just got my flycam redking and this video is outstanding!!!

Great stuff! Your videos are really helping me with getting the most of my stabilizer!
great series! I will say that it would be helpful if we had a video on how you built your steadicam. I think the biggest trouble people tend to have is finding a steadicam that is as easy to micro adjust as yours, so it would be a great help

Awesome James! I am glad that it helped you :)
thanks for that short tutorial :) very good for beginners like me ;), cheers from Poland!
can you show a video on how to use a manual lens with a steadicam?

If your camera lens has image stabilization do you turn it on or off when using the glidecam?
Awesome!! Thanks brother🙏🏻

Thanks for the insightful tutorial! Are you a bassist/guitarist by any chance?
I can play a little guitar lol. Thank you so much for watching! :)
thanks man for the tips
Bravissimo
Wow, I did not know u had to rebalance if you change your focal length (zooming in or out), does this apply to gimbals such as zhiyun or dji?
Yes definitely!
Momentum Productions why has nobody talked about it...here I thought you can just place it on and zoom in and out freely:(
I have a question about my steadicam! So I am pretty sure I have it balanced and the drop test times at about seconds. But when I use it I feel like I don't have any control on the direction that it goes! It just pans and swivels as I walk. I don't really know what else to try. Do I just need practice? Any tips would be much appreciated!
I watched another tips video from pros that make the units... they said all use four fingers on the pole to control panning.
grasias exelente
Done the drop test and balanced yet it still has a tendency to rotate as I walk. Any tips? Thanks a mill.
why there is no single demo of using a glidecam with a wireless follow focus system.. can u pls explain
Yes I enjoyed it. Thank you.
camera operatord hate him. klick here to see how to last longer.
sorry I had to, great video btw.
Eydok lmao
Very useful indeed. Slightly intimidating for some users of stabilisers that you’ve got guns larger than most NFL linebackers though lol !
What gimbel do u use in the video?
WOW yourea gorgeous dude 😍 ! Look at em biceps 💪
I've watched a lot of stabilizer videos and I've never seen one so detailed.
What do u recommend
Traditional steadicam with 2 weight (like glidecam hd1000) or with 3 weight (like iFootage Wildcat II)?
What is difference? (i think that 3 weight steadicam seems little wobblier than traditional 2 weight steadicam)
which glide cam did you use in this video?
I found out that Sony 28-70 kit lens is so light that you can refocus it and zoom in and out without rebalancing the whole thing. Also this lens rocks for filming if you'll be using a camera that can handle dark lenses like Sony a7s series. Since that lens starts from 3.5 aperture.

Nice Video
Thanks for the secrets!
Thank you for watching! :)
I liike the WWE style entrance hahah. Good video!
Hahah thanks man!
First!
Just kidding, is that a Laing P-0 something? Have you used the glidecam xr-pro? Both are the same price on amazon. Thank you for sharing the secrets Josh.
This is a custom stabilizer that I built from different units :)
Any chance you 'd be willing to share which units you got the pieces from? I'm especially curious about the sled (I believe that's what it's called.... the piece on which the camera is mounted). I really like the fact that there is only one locking screw and one adjustment screw.
love him
Thanks for sharing the tips. I learnt a lot from your videos. But still I am not perfect. .
Thx for the video! :) Btw, would you care to share the name of the song with us? :)
What about orbit movement ?
what kind of Steadycam are you using please
+Nunsense3 This is a custom one.
Don't forget to 'TURN ON NOTIFICATIONS' - simply go to options and select 'all'. You'll only receive notifications when I post a new TH-cam video.
