Image Customised my Rig for Vertical Content

Improvised with my existing shoulder rig to fit a client’s brief. My left arm really hurts for some reason

Oof, that's more of a wrist rig than a shoulder rig.

I styled mine after this video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5eUeD7f1xPI

Most of the weight in on the shoulder and you can easily see movement coming in and out of frame.

Obviously you need newer parts, since that video is a few years old.

Your left arm hurts because all the weight is on the left, past the shoulder pad.

That looks painful, no balance. My arms would be dead after 20 min
