Ever had a rig that feels like a cursed spine—each joint a potential death sentence? I’ve been treating my last one like a nervous patient. Maybe you’ve got tricks for keeping a character alive on a low‑budget shoot.

Yeah, I’ve seen a few of those “cursed spines.” Treat it like a nervous patient—keep the joints lubricated, double‑check the straps, and never trust a single bolt to hold the whole damn thing. On a tight budget, use a lightweight frame that can be disassembled if something goes wrong, keep a spare set of plates in the trunk, and if the rig starts acting up, just pause and walk away for a minute. The crew’s gotta respect the gear as much as the script.

Sounds like a good ritual, but I’ve got a rule: every time I tighten a bolt I whisper “Bless the bone,” and if it squeaks I call it a ghost. That’s the only way I keep a cursed rig from becoming a haunted carcass.

That’s one way to keep the dead weight on its side—blessing bolts and ghost‑watching. Just make sure the ghosts don’t start asking for overtime pay.

Just keep the ghost’s ledger in a safe folder—no overtime, just a neat audit of every squeak.

Got it, ledger’s locked and the squeaks are just ghost‑notes on the score. Just don’t let the audit get too long and turn into a sequel.

If the audit turns into a sequel I’ll add a chapter titled “How to keep ghosts from stealing the credits.” Keep the ledger sealed and the squeaks muted.

If the audit turns into a sequel, just add a side‑story about ghost‑busting and keep the credits where they belong—on the rig, not the after‑credits scene.

Sounds like a plot twist. I’ll just keep the rig in the spotlight and the ghosts in the dark.

Sounds like a plot twist, but hey, keep the rig in the spotlight and let the ghosts stay backstage.
