Vimeo user, Floydster Media shows us some of his first test shots with the new Glideshot 4ft jib he purchased. Thank you for sharing, Floydster, I can’t wait to see what else you create!

The idea is to cover a lot of ground, move fast, and use a Steadicam setup. Chasing a moving subject with a Steadicam can wear a person out pretty quick. We needed something that could cover different terrains from gravel, dirt, grass, and uneven ground. A Segway would be perfect, but outside of normal budgets. [...]
This is my latest geek obsession. I am in LOVE with this wrist band. Hearts in eyes, butterflies in my tummy, Hello Kitty underwear kinda love. Imagine all the cool things that the iPod Nano is capable of: touch screen, apps, iTunes, GPS, etc. Now, have a pretty little white wedding with a wrist band [...]
