The Glambot robot arm has become a staple of awards show red carpets, capturing stunning slow-motion videos of celebrities in motion. With its dramatic robotic arm movements and Hollywood-style production quality, the Glambot creates shareworthy content that frequently goes viral on social media.
So, what’s the secret to getting those perfect, jaw-dropping Glambot shots? Read on and let’s learn them in detail.
Choose a Striking Location
The Glambot team transforms any red carpet into a mini production studio.
It is better to have backgrounds with height and depth. Staircases, balconies, even a driveway can act as a “runway” for models to walk, spin, leap, or pose. Open outdoor spaces also lend themselves well to the Glambot’s expansive robot arm motions.
Just be careful of positioning the Glambot camera too close to walls or other obstacles that may limit sweeping camera movements. Give your Glambot – and your model – room to dazzle.
Use Flattering Lighting
Good lighting can make all the difference between an average shot and a showstopper. The perfect Glambot red carpet incorporates advanced lighting setups to illuminate celebrities even in night shooting conditions. For DIY shoots, natural lighting often works best. Outdoors, shoot at sunrise or sunset to capture that “magic hour” glow. Indoors, placing subjects near bright, clean windows creates appealing visuals. You can also experiment with artificial lighting, whether continuous video lights or off-camera flashes. Just ensure the light evenly illuminates your subjects without overly bright or dark patches.
Enlist Someone to Assist
Behind every great Glambot video is a director coaching the stars through each shoot. Having an assistant talk models through posing allows you to focus on maneuvering the Glambot photo booth into optimal positions around them. Before starting the shoot, chat with models about any particular poses or angles they feel most confident with. Then as filming occurs, gently call out instructions like asking them to turn, jump, kick, or twirl on cue. This helps capture polished motion instead of haphazard movements.
Let the Stars Shine
The true secret of a great Glambot shot? Confidence. Celebrities like Lady Gaga, Brad Pitt, and Billie Eilish didn’t need perfect poses because they shone on camera with their natural charisma.
So, when working with models, help them feel relaxed and empowered to just be themselves. You can focus on putting stars at ease rather than overly-directing. Once comfortable, their innate personality and style creates that “X factor” the Glambot magnifies.
Trust in Slow Motion
With its high-speed camera capturing many frames per second, even the smallest motions translate into dramatic effects in the Glambot’s signature slow-motion style.
That means both lively, exuberant movements as well as quieter gestures like twisting hair or fluttering hands can dazzle on camera. Even seemingly “imperfect” poses get smoothed into elegance by the slowed-down video.
So, encourage models to accentuate movements and gestures bigger and bolder. On playback, the Glambot technology enhances each flowing action into a captivating dance for the camera.
Take Advantage of the Robot Arm
Hypelclip’s camera robot arm allows swooping video perspectives impossible with static cameras. Use wide, spinning motions to reveal poses not just face-forward but from multiple sides and levels.
Practice moving the arm in broad arcs around models as they hold dramatic stances. Or time extend-and-retract motions to the beat of their runway strutting. Combining the models’ performances with the camera’s choreography produces particularly compelling Glambot magic.
Develop Rapport
During quick red-carpet shoots, you can establish friendly banter with celebrities to capture their authentic personalities. That candid rapport translates through the camera into instant audience connection.
When filming professional models, take time to chat and forge genuine chemistry too. Then sprinkle in spontaneous, fun directing like having them pretend to fly as the Glambot “catches” them suspended in air. The joyful spark that ignites will electrify any video.
Perfect the Edit
Even flawless shoots require polished editing to create shareworthy videos. The Glambot team digitally cleans up footage and enhances colors for maximum visual impact.
Learning basic video editing software lets you select your frames with the most impressive poses and camera angles. Careful cropping, color correction, titles, graphics, and music can turn raw Glambot clips into the next viral sensation.
The Glambot robot camera has sparked fascination by putting Hollywood production value into event and social media content creation. By incorporating some insider tips from the robot’s Emmy-winning director, almost anyone can now craft next-level videos that captivate audiences.
Final Words
It just takes the right location, lighting, talent, motion, and creative spark. Position your own Glambot for success by following this advice. Then watch in wonder as your striking slow-motion videos earn admiring looks, likes, and shares across the internet. You’ll have mastered the technology behind the biggest star in Hollywood.
