How To Film Cinematic In-Car Video as One Man Crew

Cinematic in-car video with one man crew - possible?!
Well, I ran into some hurdles and had to rethink my initial setup, which was the Canon EOS C70 with an external screen mounted on top, facing towards me in the driver seat. But this setup simply became too big could not fit it in the car, especially with the Sachtler Aktiv8 T tripod.
So, I tried it with the Canon EOS R5 instead which worked a lot better. I used the SIRUI anamorphic S35 lenses for these clips. I think my favorite clips came with the 75mm since you're getting super close to the subject, creating a shallow depth of field, nice flares and a cinematic look.
For this to work I also needed to use +1 diopter on the lenses to shorten the closest focus distance.
