Occasionally clients need gyro-stabilised footage shot from platforms other than aerial platforms.
Aeroptics’ Peter Thompson designed and prototyped a dozen mounts currently in use and manufactured today. Custom-built mounts are all part of our on-going service to customers. We love a challenge.
VAN
The Queenstown based 4x4 van offers a filming platform that can take the Cineflex into most on-road and off-road situations. The Aeroptics’ ‘Vancam’ is fitted out with monitors in the front seat for the director to use. The Cineflex is fully retractable inside the van for ease during ferry-trips, and can be ready to film within 30 seconds. The Cineflex can also be used whilst inside the van. Shooting forward, a gyro-stabilised shot ‘through the windscreen’ shot can be captured, with driver and passenger in shot if required.
