"Today we get creative with tripods" - THAT is an intro

[sevenstone]

Seems like vintage riot myaaaan! Nice!

[TrailFeatures]

Fantastic tips! These are perfect for someone like me that has to carry all their gear on their back to location; the less I need to get the shot, the better.

[GabrielMokayed]

As always, this is both entertaining and educational. Simply brilliant, thank you Ryan!

6 is my absolute favorite. I'll be using that in some of my projects. Thanks a bunch, Guys!!

[Jorge_Rodriguez]

Cool video and ideas. You have just ignited my brain and now I am trying to find new ways to use my tripod.

I love that you can do pretty much all of these with a monopod as well, but if there are any extra tricks for that one, please do a video on monopod tricks as well!

[EminYorulmaz]

[Srizzil]

Love the look from those last two shots, that's on the to do list for sure.

Those PERFECT EFFING CLOUDS would have to be CG'd in on like every production ever.

Cup cakes for you Ryan for this video. Loved it.

[JulieMcElmurry]

Thank you. You've shown us that a tripod can be a replacement for lots of equipment.

[ActiveAtom]

Really nice tip with he rubber-band thought I was no longer a smooth man second one I use it works this drag move.
Thank you for these tips. Love the 6 and 6.5.

Thanks especially for #7. I've been trying to rack my brain around how to do an overhead shot cheaply for a while now.
