After a year of school work, holidays, and mindless work; it was that time of the year again- Time for the Asbury Steadicam workshop. After months of planning, talking to Svenson on the phone, and asking Don Mink plenty of questions, they were finally back and Steadicam was reimagined in my mind. There were returning friends and new faces. The difference this year was that this time, I was an assistant, hands on, and excited. I was able to pick up tips from the operators by working more closely with them, having meals with them, and all the time in between groups of students. It was exhilarating to meet and talk with Garrett Brown, the inventor of the Steadicam. Never have I been this overwhelmed with taking in knowledge and wisdom from those that have not only put in their 10,000 hours of time invested in a career but I was able to work some one who had built the original product that had provided my fellow operators with a career.
