How to use a video camera slider
No matter how great your location, how great your setup, how well-posed your model or well-crafted your story board, camera shake will ruin your shot. So here are 6 stabilization that’ll help you keep that camera steady for sharper photos and smoother video.
Glove fingers make for smoother Camera slider
Want a smoother panning shot but don’t have a Camera slider or unnaturally steady hands? No worries. Grab your nearest gorilla pod and a throw-away pair of cloth gloves, cut off the fingertips, and fit those over the gorillapod’s feet.
The tripod will now slider smoothly across any slick surface.

Use a string (or your shoelaces) as a makeshift tripod
This is a classic “no tripod, no problem” tip. If you find yourself in need of a few-second exposure and your hands just ain’t cutting it, try using a string or your shoelaces, tying them to the the strap loops of your camera, and stepping onto the string for stability.
Use your neck as a third point of contact
If you don’t have any string or your shoe laces just aren’t long enough for Tip #2, using your camera strap is the next best thing. Put it around your neck like normal, and then pull the camera out tight in front of you.
This makes your neck a third point of contact, helping keep the camera more stable than your hands alone can achieve.
