ABOUT

WHO I AM

Welcome I am Max Franken, I am SteadiFox.

With a degree in Multimedia Design and 3D animation and a Film Academy diploma I am well educated in the technical field as in the artistic aspect. This broad knowledge is a good foundation for my daily work as a freelance filmmaker. Focused on Steadicam, camera operating, camera assisting and focus-pulling I deliver quality without losing sight of the bigger picture. I am a team player, have strong communication skills, flexibility and perseverance are qualities that characterize me. Quality and customization, this is what I stand for.

Take a look around and feel free to contact me.

BEHIND THE FOX

WHAT MAKES THE IMAGE

Exo Vest

Exo_Vest

This is the Exo Vest. It shifts the weight of the Steadicam to my lower body and hereby making it more comfortable for me to operate for a longer period.

G-50x Arm

Arm

The G-50x Arm connects the vest to the Arm and is able to lift 5.4 kg to 23 kg. This arm is one of the secrets to a smooth shot using a Steadicam.

Archer 2 Sled

Sled

This is my sled, Steadicam’s Archer 2. Able to handle a camera’s up to 14 Kg. Fitted with a tilt head and the Transvideo XSBL Evolution screen for a clear view even in full sun.

DJI Focus

FollowFocus

The DJI Focus system, perfect for focus pulling without even touching the Steadicam. This way the AC/Focus Puller can pull focus without me having to worry about bumping into him.
