Chevy Nomads ffsherman 2012-07-11 | I set out to shoot a "10 Shot Video," the easy learning exercises I invented for my book, "Ready, Steady, Shoot: The Guide to Great Home Video." But the Nomads are so cool -- made in 1955, '56, '57 -- I went a bit beyond 10 shots.Good filmmaking is accomplished by being flexible. So, why limit to just 10 when these cars are so amazing. I think you'll agree it's worth a few extra shots.The operative word is TIGHT for this video. The more close ups the better. Stay in tight and you'll make better videos.Check out ReadySteadyShoot.com for "10 Shot Videos," lots of tips and helpful blogs.Oh, and you can buy the book there too (iTunes, Amazon, everywhere). It's only $7.99.
