Nice video overall, though some of the assertions here are weird. The tone makes it sound like there were no live TV crane shots in TV before the 90s, which isn’t the case. You can see cranes all over live TV from the 50s and 60s. It’s fair to say that this more fluid style of jib shot became more common in the 90s when both cameras and cranes got smaller, but it’s inaccurate to say nothing like this ever existed in live TV before then. “The small but growing TV industry” - in the 80s? It was hardly a small industry then. Why the hyperbole?

Television exploded in the 80s because of cable. Prior to that it was a much smaller pool of content and talent with only the major networks.

I don’t understand. They didn’t invent the “jib”, they just bought one. Shouldn’t the credit be given to the makers of the “jib”? What weren’t they mentioned?

The inventor rarely gets the credit. It's the person who puts the invention to use and makes it common place.

What don’t you understand? Do you celebrate the works of Da Vinci or the inventor of the paintbrush? Mozart’s compositions or the inventor of the piano? Shakespeare’s plays or the people who built the Globe theater?

Very cool story of innovation in an industry that's largely insular and stagnant most of the time... I'd love a follow up about the Red Camera Company (recently purchased by Nikon) and how it went from rogue rebel outsider to industry standard in less than a decade easily breaking the Panavision/Hollywood monopoly that seemed to have kept the industry beholden to a single rental company for decades unless the filmmaker was independent enough to push for Arriflex and a different style although..

some shots used in the video could be arguably used by a steadicam (cbs morning news ones)

Oh, can't express what I feel about this tv gear romantics. I wanted to work there so much, but still didn't really succeed because of personal circumstances. How jealous I am, oh... But now all of that seem to be on the edge. New tech, AI, all that's killing old world. And that's what I'm so afraid of.
