I came across this video made by a friend of mine via Facebook yesterday, and I can’t stop thinking about it, so I thought I’d share it with you all today. Levi’s a video auteur who shoots with a DSLR. It’s bloody remarkable what he accomplishes with a minimal budget—I’m really impressed by how smooth his panning is. I’ve seen the gear he uses to accomplish that panning, and it’s not exactly high dollar.
Metal Ancestors features a local tourist attraction called the Swetsville Zoo. The less I say about it, the better—let the video describe it to you. I haven’t made it out there yet, but after watching this, I really want to find the time. I might even get my camera out of the closet for the occasion.

There are low-cost creative tools everywhere you look—tools enabling people to do amazing things that look as professional as the stuff made with $50,000 worth of camera gear. I love living in the future.
