DP James Mathers on set with SLIDE-R1

"


I always like to add a little movement when appropriate and possible, but with such a small crew, a dolly was not in the cards. However, a filmmaker friend, Warren Eig, has been wanting me to take a look at a new Slider he has designed and this shoot presented the perfect opportunity. The EigRig SLIDE-R1 kit is quite versatile and includes both a 4ʼ and 3ʼ span that can be mounted on stands, sticks, or a dolly, and also has the ability to run on various lengths of speedrail. It's smooth, quick to set  up, and sturdy.
