Hey guys,
The amazing opportunity I had, just became real! I will be visiting Berlin in October, to shoot an image film for a flight school! (Not what your average 16 year old does )
Well, I was wondering how I could pull this off!
I know how I will do all the ground shots, I know how I will shoot the interviews, but what I don't know is, what I would need to consider whilst shooting inside the airplane!
We will be flying around with your average training aircrafts! That means relatively small! 2 seats in the front and possibly 2 in the back.. One propellor in the front!
Now, i was thinking, of a normal shoulder mounted rig, like a double barrel, or a Zacuto Striker. I am planning to film this with a Canon 5D, and a T2i mounted on the outside of the aircraft with suction mounts and other secure solutions! This will all be according to safety regulations!
How about micro vibrations in an aircraft? Is it noticeable, or do you only have that in a helicopter?
Shooting outside the airplane, I have a couple of ideas! If there is the possibility of flying with the door open, I was thinking of attaching thick rubberbands to the doorframe, maybe two or 3 and letting them hang down. This should probably reduce vibrations and would be much better, than trying to squeeze a Tripod in there.
I had this idea, because, this is what some military personal do, with their machine/support guns!
What is there to consider?
Phil
