Bird's eye view shot with HVX200 and FigRig

[indiancowboy]

This is an oft asked question - but I was unable to find a satisfactory solution with my searches.

I have a HVX200 and the FigRig. I need to get a overhead shot of a couple lying on the bed. I'm thinking I can use the FigRig and then either attach it to a C-Stand arm. But am concerned this is not very stable.

Any ideas on how best I can do this? The place is very small so there's no scope to bring a Jib in.

I'm open to going to a grip house and renting what's required, but not sure what I should be asking for.

Thanks for any pointers.

Why not attach a 2x4 to each side of your fig rig? They can rest on dressers or be handled by two people.
