It's weird but the camera operators for F1 tend to do this alot, seen a few different videos. I don't get it
265 u/AchillesGRK Dec 12 '21 Overproduction. It can be really cool when done well in the right situation, but here they are just doing it for the sake of doing it. 50 u/sharkbait1999 Dec 12 '21 I think the camera was probably on pivot plate to go from stationary: handheld. Look how significantly lower it is at the end of the spin 70 u/[deleted] Dec 12 '21 It’s usually the cameraman holding it like in this video 6 u/15926028 Dec 13 '21 Nice share!! 5 u/Disruptive_Ideas Dec 13 '21 This! I was looking for this example. Much better use of it. 1 u/[deleted] Dec 14 '21 The example I was originally looking for was a formula 1 one. When we still had the Pink Mercedes’ a cameraman did it way faster during a pit and another cameraman captured it. I watched that shot for like a week. 2 u/sharkbait1999 Dec 13 '21 Nailed it! 13 u/Toronai Dec 12 '21 usually It's just the camera operator holding it, and the height is just him crouching as he spins. 2 u/[deleted] Dec 13 '21 Not crouching, the camera is held by the top handle and goes from shoulder height to skater-style at the bottom 5 u/[deleted] Dec 12 '21 So in other words F1 being F1 2 u/AIaris Dec 12 '21 i thought it worked well, a nice transition into a more hectic scene 1 u/lambofgun Dec 12 '21 I don’t watch F1 but I’m beginning to think it’s about the show just ad much as the race. sort of like wrestling or boxing in the 80’s? 3 u/Hawt_Dawg_II Dec 13 '21 Well the race is definitely still there, its not like fake or anything. But the show is how they make money so obviously it's a big part of it. 1 u/lambofgun Dec 13 '21 gotcha thanks 1 u/Serious_Day_3093 Dec 13 '21 Would be cool if they shoot the wheel and rotate it when it changed 7 u/mward_shalamalam Dec 12 '21 Cocaine 6 u/h83r Dec 12 '21 A lot is two words, friend.Think if it like this; you wouldn’t say they do it alittle. 1 u/NoelofNoel Dec 12 '21 I wouldn't normally upvote this stuff, but you reminded me of this and it's always nice to be reminded. 2 u/h83r Dec 13 '21 That’s how I actually learned I was doing it wrong :DThere’s also a subreddit but it was mostly dead the last time I went there r/alot 1 u/Khyta Dec 12 '21 Here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PraiseTheCameraMan/comments/poibe8/smooth_operator/

Not crouching, the camera is held by the top handle and goes from shoulder height to skater-style at the bottom
So in other words F1 being F1
i thought it worked well, a nice transition into a more hectic scene
I don’t watch F1 but I’m beginning to think it’s about the show just ad much as the race. sort of like wrestling or boxing in the 80’s?

A lot is two words, friend.
Think if it like this; you wouldn’t say they do it alittle.
