here's my first try at this with a REALLY ghetto rig shot. i would never try this on any vehicle except for my beat up truck, but for stuff i had laying around the house and being on a bumpy gravel driveway, i'm happy with it. granted, i wouldn't put it up against pretty much any shot in this thread, but for the cost, it was a fun exercise.

And my setup shot, used a piece of 1/2" EMT pipe and a length of wire. the pipe was stuck through the tow hook and kinda just wedged against the skidplate under the motor. you wouldn't believe the bounciness of this thing! like i said, ghetto as hell, but i only have about $5 in materials in it lol

Third rig "session", this time with friend's BMW.

0,8s, F16, ISO 100, 24mm on FF, 4m boom

Is it bad using most of a car from static shot as a layer on actual rigshot? I know this way kinda kills the "magic" of rigshoot, but it's sooooo much sharper :-D can't help myself...

It's not "bad", but a soft shot is telling you that either your equipment or your technique (or both) isn't up to par.
