Advanced car rigging
Push past beginner rigs and learn how to integrate fully into a vehicle like a working grip. This course shows you real pro-level workflow — hard mounts, under-car integration, full-frame skeleton builds, motorized systems, and problem-solving under pressure.
Watch complete real-set builds as we rig three advanced setups with a full grip truck, multiple cameras, PEOVIs, a motorized slider, and Modulus-X truss. No theory. No fluff. Just the process.
Whether you're a working grip or a filmmaker leveling up, you’ll learn how to think, troubleshoot, and build like a true car-rigging specialist.
I built my first car rig with zero guidance - just trial and error. This course is the system I wish I had: clear, repeatable, and adaptable for any level and any gear.
You’ll see how the same key shots (profiles, hoods, tires, interiors) are built across three cars at three experience levels, so you understand how rigs scale as cameras and complexity increase.
Whether you’re a solo shooter or a working grip, you’ll leave knowing how to plan, build, and troubleshoot rigs safely - and actually understand why the setups work.

Three Core Builds
Three Core Builds
This course drops you inside the real workflow of advanced car rigging. We break down the entire process into three complete builds. You’ll see how a full grip crew works, how rigs evolve under pressure, and how to integrate into a vehicle safely and creatively.

Rig 1: Fully Custom Hood Mount
Look for hard mount integration, problem solve any lack of hard mounting options, and integrate a custom rig with maximum adjustability. This rig builds off our core skeletal structure under the car and uses PEOVIs for camera mounting.
Rig 2: Motorized Slider & Mini-Libra
A standard hostess tray can only get you so far. In this build we take it a few steps further with a motorized slider and a mini libra head. We talk integration, stability, and adjustability in this build. Plus we get to play with some fun toys.
Rig 3: Modulus-X POV Extension Rig
Modulus-X has become a work horse for a lot of the car rigs I do. It provides a rigid structure for rigging that doesn't need much more additional support. We stick the camera off the car for this rig and discuss how to secure the truss properly.

Key Grip
I’m a Local 80 Key Grip and the founder of Legacy Grip. Over the years I’ve rigged cameras to everything from rollercoasters and condors to kitchen appliances and cars - hundreds of builds across features, commercials, and music videos.
This course distills that real-world experience into something clear, safe, and practical. My goal isn’t just to show you how to build a rig, but how to think like a grip. Problem-solving under pressure and making rigs that are solid, repeatable, and get you thinking like a professional grip.
