this way of editing works well when you get no script, storyboard, shot list or direction. I have gone through many edits were a hard drive arrives with footage and nothing else and I need to create a video from what is given. For me I like to drop all footage into one timeline as my "assemble seq". If there are multiple cameras I create a sequence for each camera. Then go through each sequence and cut all the clips down and move them to the second video track. Those are my selects ready to me moved over to my master sequence. For me its faster to scrub through a sequence and grab a shot I need vs searching through the project window, pulling it up in the source window, adding my in's and out's marks and dragging the selected area into my timeline.

But ProRes is a way better codec than .mp4 like some DSLRS or the annoying AVCHD. Ive used the URSA with only two 64gb Cards and our production was able to shoot in RAW and still get the shots we needed. I agree cards fill up fast but if you have a good DIT on set then you really don't have much of issue with shooting in RAW with small gb C-Fast cards.

Blackmagic!!! You are at it again, showing up the rest of the competition! At the creative agency I work for we have a URSA and we have used it for studio shoots to on set commercial productions. The URSA is a great workhorse camera with all its built in features. The image it produces is lovely and I think it compares to the RED Epic in certain situations. I have edited and colored footage from an Epic and URSA for a commercial, and in post the URSA was holding strong against the RED footage. If you never worked with the URSA then you are missing out on a easy to use camera that has features for everyone, from pro consumer to professionals. Having RAW and Prores is hands down the best for post and beats any DSLR for sure or other cinema cameras out on the market. Im very excited to see BM pushing for cameras that have all these features built in, not like some camera that need external recorders to be able to shoot in 4K. Oh and they are always priced affordably. Can anyone out there name a camera that can shoot in 4k RAW and 4K prores for less than 5,000. I know of one Blackmagic's Production 4k camera for 3,000.

Not if you know how to move your aircraft in away that you want it to.. I have gotten many good shots take look like they were from a two operators

Fire Guy, It really not all that complex at all. Yes, it is more complex than a turntable. But it's just a platform with a rod in the center and special ball bearing that probably has two attachment to it, one for the camera and the other for the counter weight. Its not anything different than how a skateboard wheel and axle work.

The price for it is way to high for indie consumers. I see only special effect houses carrying these, or maybe certain production companies. I would only rent this product not buy it. They say at the end of the video the ultimate selfie. Who's going to carry this around and pull it out at a location to take a "ultimate selfie". Now theirs a parody video I would like to see.
