Hey guys. Want to shoot professional looking footage but dont want to waste 20k on a steadicam? I have an awesome solution for you! Just take the camera out of the box and shooting holding it with your hands while you move around!
If you were to use a box as a slider, just make a hole close to the bottom and put a string or yarn through it, make a mean ol' knot, and pull it by wrapping the string/yarn in your fingers like a fishing line. I don't know maybe a suggestion to someone who would actually consider doing this. Because...I...wouldn't >_>
OR better still just lie on the ground with your camera and get some buddies to drag your sorry ass along at a smooth consistent rate!...WORKS EVEN BETTER WHEN PISSED!...or maybe strap your camera to a toy train set and pull it along the track..anything is better than a freaking BOX!..but 10 out of 10 for showing ingenuity and keeping the PRICE down!..to many camera accessories are already far too expensive!
so how does this work out when ur dragging the box over pavement, grass, rocks and the 5000000 other environments u encounter, other than ur carpet, while filminh
What i did for mine was take off some old rollerblade wheels, and used PVC piping from my garage, put it together and it works great! i also made it so it can go in a 360 degree turn!
Good video but not usable for all circumstances, you can build a cheap slider bij watching the video of BFX just type on the search bar BFX camera dolly
@MrPatrickBrunton maybe she made some money cuz u guys wrote a lot sarcastic comments.. then she simply saved it for a good computer by inventing a no-costs slider system to produce this cool video to make even more money or even inspire some ambitious creatives to save money for other projects... oh , wait , maybe im confusing this now with the time-travel-box that i just invented yesterday ;-)
If you get a big box you could get some mates towing you with their car to do the worlds longest and fastest slider shot and get in the Guinness book of records.
you're an idiot. you should put the camera in a box, then put the box in your head and after this you have to say a poem, turn yourself 3 times and that's all
great idea, but you sound HOT... so can we see a version where you are like 'leaping around' in a bikini? [sorry if this is a bit forward... All the best.
@scotsmanlerxt For carpets, contact-tape a commercial cereal box (shiny side to the carpet) to the bottom of your 'big' or 'small' transport box. Super smooth.
imagine now shooting a wedding.. and u show up with a box pushing it and pulling it around.. thats a good idea .. but what about outdoor shooting ? in a forest..
Thank you ! This rocked! :) I've just lifted a couple of 1 meter long curtain rods and some of those padded furniture sliders from work ;) ...this of course coming from watching a vid for a motorized track dolly costing over $1000 ! ! !! -EEK! -Of course, the other alternative is to make a snuff-film with a cameraman owning all this stuff and ... well... you know. ;) -But WAY more fun to build all your equipment. -Gets out of the way of telling your Story instead of bragging about gear :)
I clicked this video because I genuinely need to build a slider. This was hilarious! Thanks for posting. And yes, I did the "box slider" back in my broke ass film school days.
this may as well be a rick roll

You'll got massive angle tilts while pulling the slide by hand!!!
Hint 1:
Take two ropes (1 left 1 right) and hold them both in 1 hand while pulling the box
Hint 2:
Glue 2 straight sticks bamboo "garden plant sticks" under the box, (like a pair of rockers) they'll straighten the direction of the box.
Then Your 0$ slide will work much better!
