I love my Sony FX6, but when Iโ€™m flying someplace remote and am trying to keep my kit to a bare minimum, give me an FX3 / A1 combo all day. My new A1II finally comes in tomorrow too. I canโ€™t wait! ๐Ÿ’ก๐ŸŽฅ๐ŸŽฌ๐Ÿ“ธ

Anybody ever feel like they are packed to the brim?

I don't want to buy and build out a 1-ton or 3-ton grip truck. As such, I have worked over the past year to build out what I call my "truck kit". This is essentially what all I can fit in the bed of my truck under my DiamondBack bed cover that allows me to show up to any shoot and always have the basics on hand.

To build out my truck kit, I wanted everything to fit nicely, but I also needed to fit as much in the bed of my truck as possible. As such, I have spent months tweaking my setup until I finally found a combo of gear that fits nicely in my truck for shoots, allowing me to pack as much kit as possible, but while also making sure that everything is easy and quick to grab.

My truck kit is still being finished (waiting on the new 400X lights I preordered to arrive, along with the new Spotlight Mini and four Infinibars), but it's almost there.

My philosophy is this: Have a kit that you always bring to every shoot. One that's got all the essentials - from various lighting fixtures and grip gear - to electrical, cameras, lenses, tripods, a gimbal, a drone, sound gear (booms, boom poles, wireless, sound recorder, and accessories), and lots and lots of flags, frames, light modifiers, combo stands and C-stands.

Anything that doesn't fit in my "truck kit" gets added to the back of the cab as "add ons" for shoots, such as butterfly frames, extra lights, lighting booms, etc., or strapped onto my bed cover, like a ladder or a roller cart. But if all I have is my truck kit, I can tackle 90% of projects that I take on.

Wag flags are incredibly useful tools that allow you to quickly setup 4x4โ€™, 6x6โ€™, and 8x8โ€™ pieces of fabric for film in only 1-2 minutes, using just a single C-stand, and with only one person needed for the setup.

Modern Studio Equipment takes this design a step further with their Modular Wag Flag Frames which break down into 2โ€™ sections, making them super portable and travel friendly.

In this video, we break down Modernโ€™s Modular Wag Flag system and the kinds of kits you can build with them.

We just returned from an incredibly fun project we shot in Sitka, Alaska this past week for Sitka Tundra Tours. The goal for this project was to create a brand video for the tour company while also taking still images for their website, brochures, and social media marketing efforts. ๐Ÿ’ก๐ŸŽฅ๐ŸŽฌ๐Ÿ“ธ

This marked our fifth trip working in Alaska, and as always we continue to say that it is our favorite place on Earth. We are thankful to once again experience the wonders of Southeast Alaska and why they call it The Last Frontier. ๐Ÿป๐Ÿฆ…๐Ÿ”๏ธ๐Ÿ‹๐ŸŒŠ
