INCREASING KNOWLEDGE AND AWARENESS:

From time to time we get calls from production coordinators and others inquiring about our jibs and what they can do.  So we decided to address some of those frequently asked questions in order to inform and educate our clients.  This, in turn, will help all involved in the production process to get the most out of the tools at hand. 

The Stanton Triangle jib comes with its own pan/tilt remote head.  Also standard is zoom and focus control for video lenses(Canon & Fuji). We can deal with other manufacturers video lenses if informed before the production day. 

For Film, the jib comes with Stanton's hardwired focus controls with a 32 pitch gear and rod mount.  We also provide a 24 foot cable for the microforce zoom control. On most of our bigger film shoots, the AC brings zoom and focus and uses our system for backup.

MCT jibs come with a standard def monitor for viewing the camera mounted on the jib.  (15" HD Monitors are available upon request.) We can provide client monitors upon request.

For the smaller Sony & Panasonic HDV & HD cameras, we have a long cable for lanc control along with a varizoom.  We own the Sony HDV Z1U camera and have the controls for that to work with the jib. 

When you are using the jib in close proximity to the talent, upon request, we can provide a Teleprompter System that mounts on the jib. Ask us which Teleprompter System is the best for your specific needs.
