You know, classic Stupendium fodder.<br \/>\nThis project began as something small-scale to test out something large \u2013 a robotic motion control arm that I bought! I first thought about getting a motion control arm for a different project that actually fell through, but I couldn\u2019t get it out of my head. I needed one!<br \/>\nSo, this video is the debut of our newest team member Armando! He is a Cinebot Mini from Mark Roberts Motion Control, and I love him. He was very expensive, so expect to see him a lot more in future shoots. (Why yes, I do personify all of my equipment, you should meet Cameron the camera.)<br \/>\nThis shoot was very much a trial by fire. We got trained to use the arm by the wonderful Nigel from Mark Roberts, but having our first real test of it be one continuous 3-and-a-half-minute camera move with about 60 different passes for different characters that need to be perfectly aligned may not have been the best idea I\u2019ve ever had. Especially since the initial idea for this video was just, \u2018what can I use the motion control arm for? I could play poker with myself!\u2019 But hey, we made it work (barely) and in the next video, maybe we\u2019ll just use Armando for a few shots instead.<br \/>\nThanks to the whole crew that wrangled the arm and made this all possible, especially everyone that stayed up very late on the last shoot day to get everything finished. And special thanks to CK9C for the beautiful sax solo that I badly mimed along to!<br \/>\n&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\nCheck out the full Stupendium originals playlist for all of my original songs!<br \/>\nSTUPENDIUM ORIGINALS:<\/p>\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"STUPENDIUM ORIGINALS\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/videoseries?list=PLVVOXbE6Ls1glsfzH9tldq-KqPI-g84LA\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>THE STUPENDIUM ON SPOTIFY:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/bit.ly\/Stupendify<br \/>\nTHE STUPENDIUM ON iTunes:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/bit.ly\/StupendiTunes<br \/>\n&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\nVideo by The Stupendium and Paul Marke<br \/>\nShoot coordinator: Lizzy CJ<br \/>\nProduction Assistants: @LawlessMarshall  Nick Henderson<br \/>\nTable fabrication: Nick Henderson, The Stupendium, @OxyOxspring, GMCassie<br \/>\nCostume fabrication and sourcing: @LawlessMarshall  The Stupendium, Lizzy CJ<br \/>\nProp fabrication and sourcing: @LawlessMarshall  The Stupendium, Lizzy CJ<br \/>\nMakeup: @LawlessMarshall<br \/>\nSpecial thanks: Nigel Permane and Mark Roberts Motion Control<\/p>\n<p>Lyrics and vocals by The Stupendium<br \/>\nSaxophone by @CK9C<br \/>\nBeat produced by @sinimabeats<br \/>\nSong mixed by \u202a\u202a@OxygenBeats<br \/>\nBalatro is property of LocalThunk and Playstack<br \/>\n&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\nThe Stupendium on Patreon!<br \/>\n  \/ thestupendium<br \/>\nOfficial Stupendium Merchandise!<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/stupendiumstore.com\/<br \/>\nOfficial Stupendium discord server!<br \/>\n  \/ discord<br \/>\nDrop me a tweet? @TheStupendium<\/p>\n<p>The Stupendium is a musician, animator and content creator, creating weird, wonderful and usually incredibly nerdy songs and animations.
