About Single Shot Cinema
“I try to keep the camera moving at all times. Very slow or very fast but always moving, even if it is less noticeable e.g. when a person is speaking. Just like the surface of water, which is never completely motionless.”
-Leonard Retel Helmrich-
Motion is the essence of Single Shot Cinema.
This technique enables filmmakers to move freely in a space with a camera and take long, uninterrupted shots. To ensure stability of the shots, Leonard developed a stability device to place a camera on, the Comodo Orbit.
Because it enables you to move freely in a space, you can film from very different and sometimes unusual angles, and it enables him to film people as well as animals from up close.
