Cinema 5D Hang Gliding With Zac Majors "Flying Zippy"

Dave Aldrich from D Focus asked us to come down and help out with a hang gliding camera rig he designed. I grabbed a Canon Rebel T2i from Birns and Sawyer and slapped a Tokina 11-16mm Zoom with a Schneider Polarizer and off Zippy went. The rig was just a simple arm with a ball mount head. I decided to use the "Landscape" Picture Style on the rig to get as much as possible out of the sky. The hang gliding footage is badass. Chris Collins shot "B" cam and Dave shot some of the landing footage with a Canon Rebel T2i and 70-200mm Zoom. I had to climb down the side of the hill to get the overhead shot of the takeoff. It was a really fun day of shooting. Zac was one of the coolest people I have ever met. A big Thank You to Dave Aldrich for asking us to join this adventure.
