Snorricam BTS

Heres the DIY snorricam that I designed and made. Its very adjustable and versatile, and can be used on a number of people and in a number of positions. For directions on how to make it, check out the Instructable on it, and for some test footage, check out this video: http://tinyurl.com/nqcb45 and heres the link to Instructables: http://tinyurl.com/m9njkc .

cont.: and the strength of the material itself may come into question, depending on the edge distance of the slot. I guss it all comes down to how frequently/quickly you would need adjustments.

Just a suggestion. Check out my channel if you get a few minutes. Thanx...T

@YorksOwn I really wanted the rig to be adjustable without any tools, so the pre-drilled holes work well for my design. If I were to commercialize this design, a more precise adjustment to the arms would be needed. Again, I built this snorricam for my own needs, which were basically to be cheap, easily adjustable, and needed to be built quickly.

Time to steal some wood and shit from the DT department at school..... XD but do you have to build it or can you buy the rig somewhere?

[Mwing4890]

@RaptureRiddimz You'll have to build it yourself or commission someone to build it for you. A link to the plans can be found in the video description.

how heavy is it. if you were filming near water, if you fell in, would it make you sink as it look like it doesn't come off easy

[Mwing4890]

@twistedsolomanboy It's not too heavy, probably 15-20 lbs. It probably wouldn't make you sink, considering that it's mostly made of wood and wood floats in water, but it definitely is not easy to take off. The straps have little tension clips that can be loosened by pulling on a lever on the clip.

thanks for putting this up.

It is much better than Indy Mogul's design.

I saw Indy Mogul's tutorial on how to make a snorricam, and I wanted to make one, but I didn't really like the design. Then I saw yours, and now I'm almost finished with mine! Thanks for creating the better version. :) I'll probably upload a test-film tomorrow or the day after.

I made my snorricam for a videoclip by following your instructions! It´s fantastic. Thanks Mwing4890!

tutorial?

Hi there; awesome rig. If I may make a suggestion to increase your adjustability: on your adjustment radial arcs, as opposed to 'preset' holes which require you to remove the hardware to adjust, could you make one or two arced slots thereby allowing you to just loosen the hardware, make the degree adjustment, then re-tighten the hardware. I realize this will make actual mnfctr a bit more difficult ...
