HI-POD covers MAYDAY Protest Parade

To demonstrate its multipurpose product, HI-POD rolled out the HI-POD X2 (25 foot) model for the May 1st, 2006 protest parade in Los Angeles. The portable 25 foot unit was easily positioned close to the stage where VIPs spoke to the crowd. News trucks have mastcameras, but the trucks cannot manuever in such close quarters. The only other way to achieve these shots is by helicopter or by access to the roof of a building, which is tightly restricted. (Click here or picture for windows media movie)
