Here's how I made my cheap diy overhead camera rig. It works great with most DSLR-cameras, and also on GoPro cameras. Awesome for overhead filming, and gives of pretty decent light considering the cheap LED-strips. Very affordable and easy to make, and if you have an old computer screen lying about: put it to good use - it'll really help your photography look better!

Supply list for the camera rig:
Hose clamps - 2.50 $
LED-strip - 3 $
Wood materials - 7 $
Copper pipe - 5 $
Threaded rod: 3 $

Additionally I used:
- An old screen with a DVI/HDMI output
- Camera mounts (ball mount / and a GoPro mount)
