WHY THIS PACKAGE EXISTS
Any single course shows you how a rig was built. Together, the three teach the complete process — so when a shot comes up that isn’t in any lesson, you know what to do.
Understand the fundamentals
Load paths, triangulation, vehicle protection, and a framework you can run on any car.
See how professional rigs are actually built
Real-time builds with specialty equipment, hard mounts, and the problems that show up on set.
Assess a shot and decide what to build
The Playbook walks through real examples — shot, vehicle, constraints, and why one rig won over the alternatives.
Start with Car Rigging Basics, then take on Advanced Car Rigging. Both are included.

COURSE 02 · INCLUDED IN THE BUNDLE
Standalone value: $149
Where Basics teaches ten rigs, Advanced follows one professional hard-mount build all the way through — from finding hard mount points on the vehicle to the moment the rig flexes and the team has to pivot. Shot in real time to see the decision-making process.
Six stages. One professional build, start to finish.
01
Vehicle Hard Mount Points
Find reliable mounting points under the hood and chassis, then secure them with grip hardware.
02
Specialty Hard Mount Hardware
Use specialty clamps, threaded adaptors, and grip hardware to build beyond suction mounts.
03
Complex Camera Mounting
Position PEOVI mounts for precise adjustment and solid support at complex angles.
04
Triangulation & Adjustability
Triangulate the rig for stability while keeping camera positions easy to adjust.
05
Pivoting During a Challenge
Troubleshoot flex and shifting in real time. Reinforce the build and rethink mounting angles.
06
Workflow & Team Communication
Coordinate the crew, build in redundancy, and keep complex setups safe and moving.
03 — DECISION-MAKING
How I choose the right rig for the shot.
Real production breakdowns showing why I chose each rig, what constraints shaped the build, and what I’d do differently.
45–60 min bonus video
2026 package exclusive
For each car rig breakdown we'll discuss:
01
The brief
The shot requirements, the vehicle, and what the setup needed to deliver.
02
The constraints
Where the camera needed to go and the practical limitations shaping the build.
03
The decision
The rig I chose, why it was the right call, and the other approaches worth considering.
04
The lessons
What worked, what changed on set, and the lessons I’d take into the next build.
WHAT YOU’LL BE ABLE TO DO
Assess a vehicle and camera position before touching a piece of gear
Choose an appropriate rigging approach for the shot and the budget
Understand load paths and triangulation so the rig holds
Protect the vehicle — every time, on every surface
Select the right equipment instead of over-building
Build faster and more efficiently under a real schedule
Troubleshoot problems when the first plan doesn’t work
Scale from lightweight builds to full professional setups
Understand why a rig works, not just how it was assembled

When he's not on set, he's usually building something. Whether it's software, furniture, or another project he probably doesn't have time for. When he's not doing that, you'll find him somewhere near the ocean with a tiki drink in hand, pretending he's on vacation.
Legacy Grip is the place where grips come to learn away from set.
