Also, I may have not been clear on what I was suggesting before. I
want to experiment with the green screen as a hobby, and for that I'd
only be using a tripod. But for professional services, I wanted to
invest in a steadicam or glidecam system, and a jib with a remote
head.
Recently I've had some call to do training videos and corporate
conference videos and I thought these would be essential in getting a
filmic look.
Any thoughts?
