For my "micro movies" I've found a way to shoot with two cameras at once all by my lonesome. I got this gizmo that fits over a pop bottle cap and has a camera mount. If the bottle is full of pop or water, it is very stable. I then set it wherever I want and use my 2nd camera hand held or with my monopod ... then I can edit as if I had 2 camera men shooting the scene. 1 man, 2 cameras! I love it.
I bought the gizmo at Amazon for less than ten bucks. p.s. I use minicams and this might be less stable with a bigger, heavier camera. Or use a bigger bottle.
