Hence the reason you use 2 cameras and just just the Jib for a nice B-ROLL. These production techniques do require alot of setup and only makes sense if you have a good budget but if you are paying a model for one popshot $1000 agency rate why not do a big production that takes all day you pay the same even if you just do a 1 hour POV scene. You would need a decent sized set and an extra camera person. Its true that its a bitch to carry around and setup. One day I will have assistants for this LOL. I may be working on a Playboy TV show this summer and I plan to use some of these techniques when we go into production. I actually have a friend back in TX that builds custom made Jibs that are pretty affordable. I love the shots that you get swooping down over a set. With two cameras you can do amazing shit incorporating a jib. And you can hold a 50 lb studio camera still with little effort. One day I hope to have a real studio with these things at my disposal. I hope that one day I can own a studio and have the perfect setup to shoot mainstream films and some high end porn. After all Im in this for the personal satisfaction and creating something that Im proud of. Amateur porn is quick money and it sells. But I can't really look at it and go wow Im proud of what I created.
