Mastering Cinematography with the Kasbah System: A Must-Have Gear for Filmmakers

As a cinematographer, capturing the perfect shot is an art form. It requires precision, skill, and the right equipment. One tool that I can't go without is the Bright Tangerine Kasbah System hand-held kit, paired with my trusty Arri Alexa Large format camera. Recently, while shooting with Flitch, I had an unforgettable experience capturing a shot from a high angle, holding the camera with both hands. The Arri Alexa is a heavy setup camera, but with the Kasbah System, it's a breeze to operate. The ergonomic design of the hand-held kit allows for smooth movements and precise control, even with the weight of the camera. I can confidently maneuver the camera to achieve the perfect angle, especially when shooting cowd.

One of my favorite shooting techniques is capturing shots from a high angle. It adds a unique perspective and visual interest to the scene, creating a sense of depth and dimension. With the Kasbah System, I can easily achieve this high-angle shot while maintaining stability and control, thanks to its sturdy construction and comfortable grip.


The picture taken by Flitch during this shoot perfectly captures the essence of my cinematography style. You can see me holding the Arri Alexa with both hands, confidently operating the camera with the Kasbah System. The shot showcases the heavy setup of the camera, but also highlights the ease of use and versatility of the Kasbah System, which I rely on for my shoots.


In conclusion, the right equipment is essential for any cinematographer, and the Bright Tangerine Kasbah System hand-held kit has become an indispensable tool for me. It allows me to achieve the high-angle shots I love, and enhances my overall shooting experience with the Arri Alexa. I can't wait to continue using the Kasbah System in my future projects, as it has truly become a must-have for my cinematography toolkit.

I hope you enjoyed this behind-the-scenes glimpse into my cinematography process. Stay tuned for more exciting shots and behind-the-scenes stories on my blog! #Cinematography #ArriAlexa #KasbahSystem #directorofphotography
