On Thursday 23rd of April the ACO ran a DJI Ronin 4D workshop in Manchester. A huge thanks has to go to @nodramaltd for hosting, especially Matt Turnbull for making it possible, the Training Committee, Sham andDan Gadd (@teamgaddltd ) for planning and organising, our wonderful AC’s Nick Coleman, Sandra Coulson and Abi McVeigh for their time and commitment, and finally Chris DuMont (@chrisdumont_ )for being a fantastic tutor and providing a workshop that was so hands on, interactive, informative and really great fun. Thanks also have to go to @zoeg_cam who helped ensure this came to fruition. We hope all that attended had a great time and look forward to more in the future!

*Half Man* is out today on both HBO and the BBC iplayer. Glasgow in Feb of 25’ seems like a lifetime ago, indeed some of the temperatures were like an ice age ago. Despite the cold and other challenges this was a wonderful job on which to be to be the block 1 A camera and Steadicam operator. A true camaraderie and a wonderful cast and crew carried us along through thought provoking, humorous and often difficult subject matter (you’ll just have to watch). Our talented director and DP combo @alexandrabrodski and @carloscatalan_ brought me on board a unique and powerful show from creator @mrrichardgadd who also assembled a phenomenal cast. This show will be resonating for some time. Huge thanks to everyone for having me along for the ride and to our talented camera and grip team for having my back.
1st AC: Johnny Kerr
2nd AC: Jenna Gahagan Dhillon
Trainees: Blair Monroe and Mia Taylor
Grip Extrordinaire: Fric Lopez
DIT: James Hogarth

Thanks to @chris_maxwell01 for covering me when needed!

Ps I ran out of tags for our ace ADs Karlee and Grace, sorry about that!

*Half Man* is out today on both HBO and the BBC iplayer. Glasgow in Feb of 25’ seems like a lifetime ago, indeed some of the temperatures were like an ice age ago. Despite the cold and other challenges this was a wonderful job on which to be to be the block 1 A camera and Steadicam operator. A true camaraderie and a wonderful cast and crew carried us along through thought provoking, humorous and often difficult subject matter (you’ll just have to watch). Our talented director and DP combo @alexandrabrodski and @carloscatalan_ brought me on board a unique and powerful show from creator @mrrichardgadd who also assembled a phenomenal cast. This show will be resonating for some time. Huge thanks to everyone for having me along for the ride and to our talented camera and grip team for having my back.

Thanks to @chris_maxwell01 for covering me when needed!

Ps I ran out of tags for our ace ADs Karlee and Grace, sorry about that!

When I started out, I saw a lot of operators dealing with back issues. Some even had to step away from the job early.

I made a decision early on - that I wasn’t going to let that happen to me.

This job is physical. Your body is part of the system. We maintain our kit without question, but overlook the one thing we actually rely on, our bodies.

So I invest in both: Train, maintain and protect

Because in the end, it’s what allows you to stay consistent - day after day and for years to come.

View Instagram Stories in Secret

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
