Ceiling Mounted Camera Details

A question I've often received over the last few years is about my ceiling mount set up for over-my-work-table filming. 

This was my Christmas present from Aaron a few years ago and it's really been an awesome investment and made filming simpler without a tripod getting in the way. 

This set up includes two different pieces: (1) a ceiling mount + (2) the arm that connects the ceiling mount to the camera. 

• ARM : Manfrotto 396B-3 Section Double Articulated Arm with Camera Bracket
• CEILING MOUNT : GTX Grip GP 1037

The camera I have connected is a Canon 6D. It easily snaps in + out securely to the arm. 

In the photo above you can also see the studio lights + standing ring light that are also part of my office set up. Lockers are vintage from a sale many years ago and are still one of my favorite things. My art wall includes pieces from Mati Rose, Pam Garrison, Colleen Attara, a print about staying in your lane that Brene Brown offered at some point in the past if I remember right, Erin Gregory, a wall collage I made, a photo about living the length + the width, and a picture Anna drew of herself a few years back. 

Here's another view from the other side of my work tables:
