Polecam +44(0)1933 652852
Having worked on a whole variety of TV programmes both live and pre-recorded, Mark is one of the most experienced polecam owner/operators available worldwide.
Polecam is a lightweight, portable jib that is quick to rig and shoot to achieve dynamic footage from locations not usually possible with conventional camera cranes such as a jimmy jib. The polecam can be operated on a tripod, a body worn harness or fitted onto a dolly for tracking shots. Our polecam rigs are supplied with the Toshiba IK-HD1 high definition cameras. The output from the polecam can be HD SDI, SD SDI, Component or composite.
With the addition of a waterproof housing the polecam head becomes fully submersible and can obtain shots from underwater to land as we have used for Diving and Swimming coverage.
Our polecam rigs are supplied with the Convergent Design Flash recorders although other VTR's can be supplied if required. They can also be cabled direct into an OB Scanner via Fibre or fitted with a Digital microwave link.
Breaking down into 2 flight cases and a tripod bag the whole polecam system is easily transported and for 'flyaways' can be loaded into an aircraft hold saving expensive carriage costs.
For more information or to discuss your requirements for the polecam, please contact us on +44(0)1933 652852 or via email
