Specialised capabilities

Vehicle tracking, specialty rigs and aerial.

Moving camera on cars, trucks, bikes, boats, helicopters and drones. Every rig here is ours, and comes with crew who have run it before. Setup times and safety plans are worked out in prep, so the shoot day is spent shooting.

Custom rigged dolly

A Dana Dolly fitted with custom rigging that extends the camera up to 2.5 m beyond the end of the track. It pushes through tight spaces, like a car window, for reveal shots that are hard to get any other way.

Aerial

A range of aerial systems, picked to suit the shot. The DJI Mavic 3 Pro for quick, light coverage with a client monitor feed. Custom FPV cine lifter rigs that carry a cinema camera in close around vehicles and action. And my own helicopter vibration isolation system for stable shots from the air.
