Make: television — pole camera rig

camRig.jpg

Another in my continuing series of behind the scenes photos from the Make: television set. This is the tilt and shoot rig we built for the pole camera. We mounted it on top of a very long pole and used a remote control and two servos to take photos. You can see next to the rig a piece of paper with every single screw, nut, washer, bolt, drill bit, etc. taped to it, along with annotations. Bill Gurstelle created this prop sheet so that I had all the parts to build it on-camera.
