MTV uses HI-POD to capture celebrity red carpet arrivals at Movie Awards 2004.

Culver City, CA June 11, 2004 -- MTV hosted its 13th annual Movie Awards - the end-all, be-all destination for fans of the world's biggest movie, TV, and music stars.

The newest star at the event was not actually on the red carpet but above it. HI-POD, the Xtreme Camera Monopod, was used to videotape the celebrity red-carpet arrivals.

Towering at its full extension of 15 feet high, the HI-POD grabbed amazing arrival footage, even though it was positioned in back of the pool of press photographers.

According to Official MTV HI-POD operator Bill Sloyer "I was amazed at how smooth and easy the HI-POD was to operate. I used it like a crane, by performing sweeping moves over the crowd. The shots came out great, and I literally learned how to use it this morning!"

Some of the red carpet arrivals captured with the HI-POD included: Lindsay Lohan, Christina Aguilera; Kate Beckinsale; Jessica Biel; Halle Berry; Tom Cruise; Vin Diesel; Kirsten Dunst; Eve; Jimmy Fallon; Jamie Foxx; Jake Gyllenhaal; Paris Hilton; Kate Hudson; Ice Cube; Scarlett Johannson; Ashton Kutcher; Shia LaBeouf; Brittany Murphy; Thandie Newton; Matthew Perry; Queen Latifah; The Rock; Mark Ruffalo; Snoop Dogg; Sharon Stone; Marlon Wayans; and Shawn Wayans.

"When you shoot with the HI-POD it really doesn't matter where you are" said Mr. Sloyer, "because no one can block your shot".
