HELICAM test

Working with most of our projects with Helicams, we do our best to have our shooting planes as safe as it is possible. Because of that our HELICAM PILOT Tomek Patan developes all the time new solutions.

All together we have already 4 helicams and 5th the biggest is being build.
Just right now we can load on the head of helicam 6kg camera and it is stabilising by 3 gyroscopes.
Camera operator have 3D movements controls with liveview standing wherever he likes.

Smaller helicams take up smaller HD cameras and we use them to smaller projects with easy aerial shots.

The biggest one will be finished in 3 months and it will take in the air up to 10kg (builded especialy for RED ONE CAMERA)

here on the video You can se how we practise shootings and working with fast movements objectives. These are shots from old helicam head which is now much more developed. Editing is fast as well - this is just a practise...

Snickers Commercial Spot

It makes us really tired working with this commercial. It takes a long long time to produce it.
There is a lot of postproduction in it as well. Our rider was Krzysiek Seraz Sereczynski
