Abstract
An elevated videography platform to facilitate videography of a physical competition inside a fighting cage or fenced ring includes a platform having a planar configuration defining a peripheral edge and a boundary wall or lip extending upwardly from the peripheral edge. The platform is coupled to a post at an elevated position that enables a videographer to stand on that platform and shoot video downwardly on a martial arts contest without interruption from the contest ring, fencing, or walls.
Claims20
An elevated videography platform for facilitating videography of a physical competition inside a fighting cage or fenced ring, the platform comprising:
- a post having an elongate and linear configuration;
- a platform coupled to said post and held at an elevated position, said platform having a planar configuration and having a peripheral edge;
- a boundary wall or lip extending upwardly from the peripheral edge of the platform;
- wherein said platform enables a videographer to stand thereon and shoot video downwardly on a martial arts contest without interruption from the contest ring, fencing, or walls.
The elevated videography platform of claim 4, wherein the adjustable height mechanism comprises a telescoping post structure with locking mechanisms at predetermined intervals.
An elevated videography platform for facilitating videography of a physical competition occurring inside a fighting cage or fenced ring, the elevated videography platform comprising:
- a planar platform defining a peripheral edge;
- a boundary lip extending upwardly from the peripheral edge of the planar platform;
- a vertically adjustable post coupled to the planar platform, the post including a telescoping section and a locking mechanism configured to selectively fix the planar platform at a plurality of elevated heights above a ground surface;
- and
- a stabilization system coupled to the post, the stabilization system including at least one outwardly extending stabilizing member configured to engage a supporting surface to resist lateral movement of the post,
- wherein the planar platform is supported at an elevated position above the fighting cage or fenced ring at a height sufficient to permit a videographer standing on the planar platform to capture downward video footage of the physical competition without visual obstruction from fencing, cage walls, or ring structures.
The elevated videography platform of claim 1, further comprising a safety anchor point formed on the planar platform for receiving a tether or harness.
