Louis Vuitton
New operating work for DP @tristansheridan

This one was quite the dance. Here's a side by side bts video from an earlier take to show how it was achieved. @tristansheridan on the wheels on the jib to start the shot, until Our 2nd AC Peter Parson hot cues the gimbal over to follow mode for me to take it the rest of the way, thanks to Eric Mutz and his great team for the safe pickup and drop off off the patriot car.
