Recently used the 8ft Kessler Crane in a small bar/club setting.
In commemoration of the 25th anniversary of one of Singapore’s oldest bands ‘Jive Talking,’
The Pump Room and No Average Joe productions decided on shooting an indie docu/promo of the band, featuring its very talented vocalists and musicians.
Originally we planned on setting up the 12ft option, but due to space constraints, that would’ve gotten too close to the stage without capturing much of the crowd. The 8ft was better suited for the space. It’s good to have options. To compensate for the height however, we had to push the limits of the Manfrotto tripod a bit – fully extending the legs, which caused a little anxiety on my side. The night went by without a glitch but I will still probably upgrade to a sturdier and more functional K-pod in the not so distant future.
*Special thanks goes out to the experienced crew for helping out with the setup, calibration and tearing down of the crane. You guys really made things a lot easier and much more speedy!
) It is said only to fit the 1d and 7d. I’ll just go with that.
