.... sort of!
I was down in Sonoma, CA this past Thursday - Monday and attended a Steadicam workshop. We did some exercises that used the participants as "actors" though NONE of us knew anything about that
Anyway, there was this one "scene" where two people meet, one goes one way, one goes the other. One person draws a gun, goes down a hall way, and then sets his gun down.
The other person went up the stairs, down a hallway, and then down some stairs and shoots the person who set his gun down.
Of course we didn't have any guns (spur of the moment idea) - but we made due with what we had.
Everyone rotated through the different positions (spotter, operator, actor 1, actor 2) -- this is a video with me as actor 1 (gets shot) --- but I am wearing my Northwest Firearms T-Shirt!
A disclaimer on this will be that the guy who is shooting the video isn't using a real Steadicam rig, he has a cheap ripoff -- so his footage isn't super-steady, but I think it still looks cool.
Enjoy:
