On May 26, Foto Care along with Digitech Rich Myers, Digital Tech and Tether Tools Pro, held a webinar to teach about creating an efficient on-location workflow.
Most jobs are dependent on client approval and the ideal setup is void of having gear all over the place, so an efficient on-location workflow is vital. Rich Myers has created the ultimate setup, which allows him to have complete mobility and flexibility on set.
Let’s go over some key points regarding the benefits of using certain Tether Tools products that Rich utilizes in his usual setup when on-location or even in the studio.
