Hosted
by The Tiffen Company. We are once again holding our Eastern
Classic at Historic Banning Mills. This beautiful facility
is located south of Atlanta, Georgia. We enjoy the combination
of a luxurious main lodge and the rustic visuals of the
abandoned paper mill site along the Snake Creek. Come and
spend a week of day and night intensive training using
the newest systems. Eat, sleep and breathe Steadicam Operating.
The reknowned Steadicam Classic Workshop began in Malibu
California in the 1980’s.
It has developed into the premiere Steadicam Workshop in the world, offering
excellent instructors, state of the art Steadicam gear and workshop experience.
The group is limited to 20 students. There are 6 instructors including our Lead Instructor, Jerry Holway. Jerry has been a Steadicam Operator for more than 25
years and is the co-inventor of the Steadicam Ultra 1 and Ultra 2, as well as
many other inventions. He will be joined by 4 other highly experienced Steadicam
Operators who have instructed together before.
