'Oil In The Blood’ is a feature length documentary about custom motorcycles, featuring custom bike builders from all over the world. Creating solutions that enabled  the bikes to be captured was the biggest challenge. DOP joshallen_director shares how they did it. ⁣

"I had full camera control from the back of the bike with the movi controller and a monitor mounted in front of me so I could see everything that was going on. Using a bike with a sidecar to film so that we could keep a low physical profile was critical not only for efficiency and safety but also so we didn’t cast a huge shadow over the bikes and plunge them into darkness, as a large tracking vehicle would do. The RED #SCARLETW being lightweight and small provided a perfect solution, not to mention the ability to shoot high frame rates and everything else RED brings to the table. Then Neil, our master grip technician, went about fabricating a plate that we could mount the Steadicam arm on to and well as you can see, it worked brilliantly. For so many reasons this was the right solution, allowing full camera control, monitoring for myself as director of photography and focus control for my camera operator Neil. Working as a team on this with the director Gareth riding the bike was quite a spectacle. ” -joshallen_director⁣
