DIY Snorri Cam

[JoshH]

Hey everyone, I'm having trouble finding any information on steps for a DIY snorri cam (a la Requiem for a Dream). I remember long ago, someone posted info (it involved an old backpack, or something), but much to no avail, I can't seem to find it.

Anybody have any ideas/info?

Thanks!

NO NO NO!!! Not my rig...wish it was...

I just happened to have saved the guy's footage on my harddrive and thought posting the vid could help someone out. I couldnt remember for the life of me what the post was. I'll keep looking because I think he posted up some decent stills of the thing. They may not still be avail, but who knows? If anyone can remember the post by watching the video, post a link to the thread.

 

[JoshH]

Yep, that's the video I remember... thanks!

Wow that is really nice. It's looks like a backpack and a tripod attached together.

This looks like a good one to try and make yourself. Can someone get on that! LOL. For the record I'm the one that posted the video and photo's way back when. I created a web page for those of you that did not see the photo's. enjoy, mark.

The vid worked but you can see the straps on his shoulders. I guess you could get creative w/wardrobe.

I apologize for again referencing videos from my site, but these kids put together a great video on making their own SnorriCam:

that IndYMogul links is pretty good. This one seems a bit better http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Make-a-Snorricam .

Trying to find a cost effective solution to a camera mount on the top that will support the dvx. The camera will be fixed so a bolt through the wood might be sufficient, but wondering if anyone has a better plan.

does anybody have any other ideas on mounting the camera for a lower cost?
