Here is an intersting use of a Glidetrack to add a new twist on a look you have seen done previously with stills.

Over 1000 Glidetrack user videos on Vimeo

All I can say is WOW. It was literally a month or so ago we were at 700, and here we are well past 1000 Glidetrack user videos.
Glidetrack has established itself as THE No 1 compact and portable camera slider system on the market.
No other manufacturer that has come out with copycat versions, can even come close to that figure. We are incredibly proud of this achievement. Glidetrack has found it’s way into an unbelievably high number of amazing projects, and just keeps on getting bigger and bigger.
With the dslr explosion, every day we get blown away by the sheer quality of work that you guys are delivering using the absolute minimum of gear.
By way of an example, have a look at this piece by Jelani Memory produced for the Canon Story Behind The Still competition using
A Canon 7d, 4 lenses and a Glidetrack Shooter.
Seriously…….what would this have required 5 years ago?
These are incredibly exciting and amazing times that are re-writing the rule book!
Jelani says…… “The Glidetrack shooter was perfect. it was small, portable, but smooth and easy to work. not only was this my first time shooting video, it was my first time using any sort of dolly system, and a few minutes of practice the night before was all I needed. I also used it with its handheld shooting setup. I was surprised how well it performed creating steady handheld shots like you’d see in 24 or something. I can only think of 2 shots that we didn’t use the Glidetrack shooter, it was indispensable for this project. ”

Leclerc Brothers Motion Pictures put together this gorgeous pice of work with thier Glidetrack Shooter. Now stop and think about this for a moment.
With a dslr, some lenses and a tiny little Glidetrack Shooter, look at what they have produced and ask yourself what would that have taken even 12 months ago. Impressive stuff or what!

Martin Steimann produced this SUPERB behind the scenes piece showing how they shot this car commercial. What totally floored me was when I looked at the gear list after viewing it. Incredible!
