One layer of "Labrinth" video with the TITAN Telescopic arm
The making off:
The final result:
The Bolt is controlled by Mark Roberts Flair software, the same software that controls also our Milo, Talos and other Rigs.
With this motion control rig, movements can be done in a fraction of a second, we can follow an object or liquid poured into a glass for example, when shooting at 1000 FPS this results in amazing effects not achievable without this high-speed motion at the same time. What happens in the blink of an eye can now been seen with at the same time a movement around it, to add a more dynamic feel to your final edit of your film.
Also very important is that we can program trigger pulses that can release SFX, to cause the effect to start at the right time in sync with the camera move!
The system is easy to transport and can be installed in any studio. We can bolt it to the floor or where this is not possible we can use an extended base with counterweight to make operation safe.
Recently we shot 3 product commercials for McDonalds products in Paris and in Amsterdam.
Recently we used the new telescopic arm made by Mark Roberts Motion Control on a commercial shoot for Cartier.
The arm offers an enormous new potential to the already strong concept of a standard Milo.
For shots where track removal can be a problem or where extra height and reach is required for example for car commercials, the arm is an excellent tool.
The arm has an enormous reach from 2.16m to up to 9.8m from the centre of the rotate and can be used with an Ulti Head or a standard Milo head.
Lens height can be 8.7m
We cooperated with our Milo system shooting parts of the video clip "So Me" of the formation "Justice", in Paris.
