This video was extremely helpful. I remember my first job, looking like an idiot not knowing the terms. I learned so many more today. Please make more of these!

Dom is great, good to see him again!

Thanks for not only showing each of the grip tools, but also demonstrating how to use them. Great job!

So the term Beaver Board is considered offensive but a Butt-Plug is fine?

Butts are equal opportunity spots for plugs, I suppose. I wouldn't assume how many people would be offended by one slang name and not another. I know some guys who object to saying butt plug because they're religious. (Sodomy is no laughing matter when you believe there's a genocidal god judging your every naughty thought.) I don't personally hear anyone calling vaginas "beavers" in the 21st century... can't say I get where the comparison comes from, but maybe there's some context to that which makes it insulting? Maybe ask your mom

Always been just a shooter not concentrating on the equipment construction aspect. This was great for learning those basics. Thanks!

Hey, just wanted to come through and say I remember when you guys released your launch video and my reaction was, "Are they going to be able to keep up this kind of content?" And y'all absolutely have, I love your laid back style of teaching, always good to have a way to learn all these basics that you never want to ask about on set. Thanks a ton

Thank you so much! It really helps when you guys breakdown the industry terminology.🙌🏿

Thanks a lot, gentle man. Every thing is very much nice and to the subject , every description with demo is just amazing. It shows your experience and confidence.

Loved the 'The Third Man' theme throughout! Always one of my favorite movies. Great video!

Super helpful. I will watch any and every video you make on this topic.

I've gripped for a couple of shorts now... Best job ever, usually everyone is super cool

Dudes. One of the best videos on RJFS. Real world practical advice.

Thanks for making this video! I start a job tomorrow at a grip rental company tomorrow so this was a good refresher.

Awesome breakdown! I live in europe and especially the LA, Chicage and NY put a smile on my face. Love riggers!

Thank you so much Dominic and RocketJump, this video was a HUGE HELP! I am on my first feature tomorrow and really needed to cram some information. This was so valuable! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Those kind of videos are truly useful. Thanks for it.

Watched it when it came out. And watched it today to kind of review the hardwares. Really loved it and thank you for the video. I think it'll be cool if you could make the second part!

Perfect. Loving these nitty gritty filmmaking equipment videos, guys. Thanks! Any chance you could do similar videos for the DIT process, or for what a first or second AC's job might look like setting up cameras, etc?

Priceless. please do more and more and moore!!! Thank you. you guys rock!

Just what I needed! Thank you guys! Keep up the great job

Cardellinis are made with stainless steel and cast aluminum, matthellinis are made with chrome plated steel and cast aluminum. The difference between the two is minor but you will notice over time, especially if you get them from a large rental house. Matthellinis can rust and become hard to tighten, you should be able to spin a cardellini knob and close it in one motion, not so much with matthellinis.

@martintorner

Yes they are different @@maxphan3376. The Matthellini has a much wider turn handle giving you more leverage when securing or loosening the clamp. The Cardellini shaft is constructed from stainless steel and the Matthellini in chrome plated steel. The Matthellini is also available in larger dimensions and has the extend-allini accessory which greatly widens the Matthellini jaws. Both are great but they are a bit different.

Nice. Wouldn't be an old ex grip if I didn't add a comment. Safety cable. In my day the butt plug was called a Frisco Pin. Ain't gonna hear that anymore. First job I did (1982) as a grip (I was a film school student) hired by a novice producer for peanuts and just so happy to be working on a real film shoot even though I had probably shot a hundred thousand feet of film on my own. the Key Grip asked me to to get a full apple box and I went to the grip truck and looked for anything to indicate apple box. When I returned and told him I didn't know what it was, he did not talk to me the rest of the shoot. Not one word. Might seem harsh, but I took a notebook and wrote down the name of every single item on that truck with the explanation of what it was for, so that could never happen again, and to my knowledge it never did. I would go on to order Mole Richardson, Matthews, and American Grip catalogues to make sure there was nothing I had missed. The importance of knowing the tools of the trade and how to use them has been invaluable over the years. After watching all this guy's videos, go to the biggest rental house and ask if you can go through their list of equipment. That will give you an idea about how much the items are to rent and which brands best handle rental house abuse. And be safe, grips are often asked to do sketchy things to get a shot or solve a problem temporarily. I've seen several shortcuts end in disaster.

wow!! What a great informative Video! You put a loads of work here for this video! Thanks alot!!!!!!!!

Building a little studio in my garage and buying a lot of this equipment on ebay so this was very information. Many thanks!

Hey Dom. enjoying your videos. It's nice seeing videos on things other than cameras and lights. :)

Great video, Thnx a lot for sharing your knowledge

This video is such a great overview/refreshener! Love it. Thank you! Quick questions. 1. What are the main reasons as to why pipe clamps more commonly used for riggging lights? Is it that they can carry bigger/heavier loads? So cardellinis more for small lights? 2. How is the lollipop most commonly used? Unlike the gobo-head it has 2 options to place a baby pin. Is one commonly used for a flag and the other for a fixture. Forgive the stupid questions please :)

That was really great. Would love to see more videos like this.

Great video, thanks for taking what I'm sure was no small amount of time to make it!

It was a various and sincere explanation. thanks!

this is some really great content, i'm looking forward to more of these soon!

Loved it, thanks for making this video!

Cool vid... Thanks for sharing!

Good stuff brother! Thank you.

Luv what your doing. Showing the kids out there, There's much more to filmmaking then pushing record on their little camera.

Love these videos

Thank you great information.

Thanks for explaining cribbing and why you use it.

Great video!!!

More of these would be great!

gracias amigo al fin puedo ver todo lo que se necesita en un solo video!!

When I first saw this I was so intimidated by all this equipment, but after working with it firsthand on a set it just feels natural now and it clicks.

Learned a lot. Thanks!

Handy dandy information, Thanks!

I love these. I love Dom.

I dont know how I only just saw this but an awesome video! learnt heaps

This was really helpful! Thanks!

Great tips thank you for getting me up to speed

So valuable, thank you!

I really enjoyed this.

That was awesome, thank you!

Thanks. A lot of clarity.

Really helpful thanks

Thanks, a good insight into some useful grip kit. Good to understand some of the 'slang' so one doesn't look like a complete nube.

Great video

great video! thanks

That was terrific. Thanks!

I will probably never get to use any of this equipment but it's super interesting to see what equipment grips actually use.

great video. so may clamps. they are all handy.

I was really looking forward to learning what apple boxes are actually used for when you first showed them.

thank you! great overview! mooooooooore please!

Thanks. This video is reellay good and helpfull

this is pretty interesting, thanks guys!

I learned a ton, cheers!

great video

Good stuff, I learned what a Cheesboro is, I've gripped but never built a grid. It makes me sad that I'm old enough to have called for a Beaver Board, on a Gary Coleman and for my dolly grip to give us a Mickey Rooney. Old terms that are going out. I've never heard of LA, Chicago and New York on Apples, that was cool to learn too.

You the man Andy!

For me it seems like so many different clamps to do the same job.

But like, the cardellini clamp, mager clap, baby grid clamp doesnt seem any different in function, just different way to tighten it. An Pipe camp can do bigger stuff, I understand that....

@thephantom1492

There is indeed several clamps that do the exact same job. However, a swivel clamp is less rigid than any fixed clamps. Some type of clamp are better for light load, other more suited for heavy ones. Some are safer than others. I forgot the name, but the clamp with the screw that you tighten with the wrench, it is fine for something that hang down, but a bad choice for something that need to stick sideway: the scew can bend and it is all what prevent it from twisting. The other that basically close around the pipe will give a better strength and actually is harder to fall off. But is more expensive. An horisontal clamp have different strength and force than one that will have to handle a vertical position. Also, equipment cost... A plain spotlight may be 400$, while a controllable spot with changing color and pattern can get over 10000$. Do you want to use the "cheap" clamp on it? You will probably use another clamp, who care about the time it take to install that one! And, of course... The equipment need to be aligned preciselly. some clamp offer more stability than some others, but may be more of a pain to install. Some other equipment, like a smoke machine, could be off by several degree and you won't notice it at all.

Sorry Fabian, You are completely wrong. Cardellini clamp and and Mafer clamp they don't do absolutely the same job. Cardelli camp end with a round pin fixed, when instead Mafer calms have no pin fixed. You can choose different pint to fit in with different ends to rig specific request. Also Mafer clamp can be doubled up connecting two of them by screws at 90 degrees. Last but not less importing difference is the price : Mafer clamps are much more cheaper then Cardellini.
