    No, it's a reference to the photo you posted of shoeless people on set--standing on an apple box, etc. Do you not remember posting the photo? It was only a few replies above my reply... I hope you're not having memory problems: http://motherjones.com/politics/2011...d-lesley-stahl

      Well it was meant for humor purposes, not for literal purposes... It's not my image. It was found from a query on Google Images.

            IKEA sell a chair with just a seat of wheels and cheaper than the one you showed.

            I never sat down when shooting. If I wanted to shoot from that level I knelt. I found by shooting standing up, kneeling and laying, then moving from side to side of my key lights I got a more varied set or video.

            If you're too old it's time to get a younger assistant.

              I'm not a photographer, but I'm pretty sure that the Freedom Chair would be perfect.

                            I have 2 of these in my studio.

                            And if you add roller blade wheels to them, they are super silent.

                              Perfect! How much better do the roller blade casters make it? Is it a huge difference?
