We really have no need for that. When running up the Philadelphia Art Museum steps becomes a fetish that we shoot then we'll look into dropping $2,500-$13,000 for a low end Steadicam rig.

Actually our production values is what stands us apart from the field in most of the fetishes we produce in. That and we have Taylor.

Are you sure you have the right TaylorMadeClips? We've been doing inflation for just over a year with the same basic inflatables.
Shooting camera is a skill and its one that Taylor is excellent at.
Fluid tracking shots & pans are stylistic choices--not artistic improvements in their own right.
Consider this... even though we try to get the best acting out of our models through coaching, directing and editing we still end up with our share of wooden actresses. How much more painful would it be with rock-steady, gliding camera movements capturing every nuance of the stilted & awkward performance?
