It’s not always convenient or even possible to place your camera on a tripod when creating time-lapse shots. In this short video I show you how to build a small rig that will allow you to hang your camera from a drop ceiling, keeping it out of the way of the situation you are recording.
Pro Tip- get yourself a few 1/4 20 nuts to use as spacers so you don’t need to screw the tripod head tight to the scissors clamp each time.

Horseshoe Bend used to be a little-known roadside view of the Colorado River in Page, Arizona. But over the past few years, the spot has witnessed a dramatic increase in popularity. The main culprit for that uptick? Instagram. It’s now one of many hidden treasures across America that have become too popular for their own good — requiring extensive redesign to protect the visitors and the environment. With visitation at a record 84 million in 2017, America’s national parks are more popular than ever — and social media is rewriting the rules of how and why people visit them.

In this video, Joel Grimes suggests ways to keep your strobe from rotating while affixed to the end of a boom pole. While the first technique (grinding the stud) he suggests will work, it's not the ideal method. In fact, of the three methods he suggests, none of them are as good as the simplest answer – get a baby drop-down pin.
The drop-down mounts to the end of your boom and allows you to affix your strobe and modifier so that they're hanging vertically, avoiding the stresses that cause your strobe to twist if mounted directly to the boom pole. Plus, since the drop-down pin swings freely, it stays in place (hanging straight down) as you change the angle of the boom. A drop-down pin has been part of my kit for many years now; it has a permanent home in my monolight bag and is utilized any time I pull out the boom. [Sean]
