GSS Cinema: The Power of Ownership
Skip Armstrong, DP
Wazee Motion Pictures
Owner, GSS Cinema Mini 512EX
For filmmakers large and small, investing in high-end camera equipment is a big decision. We knew when Skip Armstrong took the leap of faith and became the owner of a brand new GSS Cinema Mini 512EX, it was the right call. Making a commitment to your craft is believing in the endless possibilities of your creations.
In Skip’s case, the seed was planted in 2007 when he watched the first Planet Earth series in Costa Rica. Seven years later, Skip had the opportunity to use a GSS gimbal and eventually purchased one for an equity group. Today, Skip is the owner and operator of his very own Cinema Mini 512ex gimbal.
Owning the GSS Cinema Mini 512EX gimbal takes his business to the next level. Skip has the freedom and flexibility to utilize the highest quality gimbal on the market with unequaled stabilization and camera swapping flexibility to create groundbreaking reels that defy expectations.
We asked Skip why he chose the GSS gimbal and here’s what he said…
GSS: What is your favorite aspect of the GSS gimbal?
Skip: It works perfectly every time. It’s reliable and tough.
GSS: How does the Cinema Mini 512EX impact your craft?
Skip: It opens up creative perspective in endless ways. For commercial, narrative and broadcast work, it's the swiss army knife for our team.
GSS: What is the most creative/fun way you have used the GSS gimbal?
Skip: We're always dreaming of new ways to use the gimbal. It’s amazing to have it on the vehicle in the morning and on the airplane in the evening. Creatively, we're excited to get it into remote areas using custom high-capacity lithium ion batteries.
