Sid Rodocker filming Uri Hofi
After several trial setups with a tripod it was decided to film each element using a hand held camera. Each piece was made three times so that it could be filmed from three different distances. All the forging was filmed in six hours of one day. Voice overs and explanations another day. It will take much longer to edit together. This video will be available from BigBLU hammers, anvilfire.com and a few others in mid September.

 A few of the pieces forged in 6 hours of filming. Some 50 elements were forged 3 times each. All were perfect and none required "second takes". |
