Practice At Home

I've designed this course to include drills you can practice to become a better operator! The course focuses on drills aimed at Steadicam & operating on a fluid or geared head!

Easy to Follow Drills

These are designed to be practiced in your backyard, driveway, or any area where you can line up a shot. The drills in this course are filmed in a way that's easy to follow and implement!

Practice Makes Perfect

When you are not on set, I am a strong believer you should always be honing your craft. The idea of this course was to give you a toolkit of tips and tricks you can practice to become a better operator!
