@mcsteadi running the ARRI Trinity for this opener is a cheat code. Then there’s @eddie.suparman with the timed calls and transitions… But pair that with the workflow on the @cinelivebroadcast truck and your event is cooked… medium rare 🤤 🥩
Peep the claw grip 👀 Mcsteadi cooked up a custom claw grip that let him control both PTZ camera and gimbal movement in real time. Seamlessly blending manual and robotic control, this setup gives him precision moves that would normally take multiple operators to pull off.
The Trinity takes everything great about a Steadicam—body-supported weight distribution, organic movement, and smooth long takes—and adds full-axis gimbal control for extreme versatility. Unlike traditional Steadicam, it allows for dynamic low-to-high transitions, 360-degree rolls, and rock-solid tracking shots while keeping that natural handheld feel.
