Richmond, Henrico County, Virginia, Pre Construction Video

Two methods were used to capture the construction video documentation from the ground level. The first of these methods was the use of our Sony A7Siii and our RAM 1500 Truck. The team mounted the camera to the truck using our own methods that we have developed. The camera is then hooked up to controls inside of the cab of the truck. This allows for safe operation of the camera on the pan and tilt axis from inside the vehicle. This process utilizes a two person team that allows one of them to focus on the operation of the vehicle while the other operates the camera. Safety is always at the front of the minds of the ALLPROUSA team. In addition to these controls the team member that is in charge of the operation of the camera has a small HD display that is also hooked up to the camera. This allows that member of the team to observe what the camera sees and they can ensure that the shot is framed properly. This ensures that the shot is what the contractor needs to see throughout the job site. In addition to the video there is a microphone inside the truck to allow the team to also verbally document what the camera sees while they move through the job site. The second of the methods that was used is walking with the Nikon Z6 camera on a DJI Ronin Gimbal. This allows the camera operator to walk through the job site while keeping the camera steady. Using this system provides stability that normally is not seen in shots of the handheld variety.
