“So in regards to the technical aspects of shooting, we had a real problem. Viewers were going to feel motion sickness if we didn’t come up with some crazy rig just to keep it very fluid. We ended up getting a very, very small camera — even though it’s so small and inexpensive, it shoots 4K — and we put it on a teeny little gimbal (a stabilizing apparatus not unlike the kind used for a Steadicam) which keeps it very fluid, on a monopod. A monopod is like a tripod but it’s just one stick that you hold in your hand, and it can go up very high or down low with the dog’s-eye view. And we think that’s part of the reason people have taken to the movie, because they can see things from the dog’s perspective.”
