This thing was for me, since I was the camera operator, to get a crane-like shot of the school coming down through the trees. It was freaky being up there and I’m usually not afraid of heights. To me, it just didn’t feel save being 50 feet in the air on this thing. I had to go up it a few times before we actually started shooting to get used to being up there. There was a TA that day on-set making sure we were doing things correctly and she wanted me to strap myself and the operator to the railings, so in case the whole things falls, I would fall with it. Yeah, it didn’t make any sense to me. I’d rather possibly catch onto the tree or land on the grass lawn if this thing fell. I mean, if the thing fell the opposite way of the grass lawn and trees, it would land onto some power lines and the main street below it. That woudn’t be good at all. Anyways, we got a pretty awesome shot with this thing.
