In this project I will be showing you how to create a simple overhead camera rig. The rig can not only hold the camera right above the object you want to film, but it also features a monitor to observe the footage and LED illumination to perfectly light your scene. The main materials are PVC pipes and wood and thus this rig is pretty easy to replicate. Let's get started!
