RIG CULTURE Submission Requirements
Rig Culture will focus on camera rigs that range from all levels that you all build! From iPhone rigs, DSLR, and cinema cameras.
Why? Well, I love to build my own personal rigs for projects that I film. And even though the camera is only 1 aspect of cinematic storytelling, I enjoy the thought process behind selecting the right piece for what I need. There is a fine line what you need/want and being content as a filmmaker. So my hope is that we learn some valuable insight using what we have from those who share their rigs on this series.
Submissions for Episode 2 will begin July 15th and end July 30th. Episode 2 will be on August 15th
