How to - Rig shots

[http://www.rigshots.com.au/howto1.htm](http://www.rigshots.com.au/howto1.htm)

> [LEFT] **What is a ‘rig shot’ ?** [/LEFT]  
> [LEFT]A ‘rig shot’ is an image where the camera has been attached somehow to the subject, usually a car, to enable a much longer exposure of the subject than would be possible otherwise. This gives an image with much more background movement/blur than would be possible using techniques such as ‘panning’ (where you shoot a moving car from a fixed position) or ‘tracking shots’ (where you shoot the subject from another car moving at the same speed). In a ‘rig shot’ the car and camera move in unison. Even though the car may move a relatively long distance during an exposure the camera sees the car as being absolutely stationary within the image it is recording because they are attached together and effectively one. The exposures are often several seconds long, even in bright daylight where the light intensity is often tempered with Neutral Density (ND) filters. They are usually shot at walking pace or slower as the sense of speed is created by the length of the exposure and how far the car travels during the exposure, not the speed of the car.

_Although this rig is fairly elaborate it is still fairly quick to setup, see video [here](http://www.rigshots.com.au/video1m.htm)._

[/LEFT]

 

_The advantage of such a rig is that the resulting images are usually very sharp, due to the rigidity of the rig, so that it is often possible to shoot the car with the engine running. Aside from dust removal there is no need to_ _this kind o__f image._
