“Go hang out with the camera crew because that’s what you’re going to be good at.”

(Story shared by Greg Smith, Steadicam Instructor, Steadicam Operator in Hollywood for 30 yrs)

My mom was my inspiration for my successful career. She was a Hollywood makeup artist and would bring me to the sets and tell me “Go hang out with the camera crew because that’s what you’re going to be good at.” She ended up being right.

My mom steered me in the right direction. I’ve been in the entertainment business for over 30 years, have had a successful career becoming a well-known camera operator.

Mom, I truly appreciated the sacrifices you’ve made to make sure that I was well taken care of. I am kind hearted because of you, and I thank you for teaching me how to be a gentleman. I also owe my professional career to you. Thanks Mom,  I love you.
