The
BODY BOOM is a revolutionary piece of professional videography
equipment that is in a class by itself. The BODY BOOM is capable
of raising and lowering from 1 inch, to 10 feet above the ground,
and, has an electric motor driven pan and tilt camera mount with
digitally programmable ramping speed control. BODY BOOM provides
the operator with remote adjustable speed zoom, remote focus control,
remote start/stop record, and remote camera wake up. The system
was designed for use with HD, DV CAM and Mini DV camcorders. Allowing
many the ability to use the cameras they already own. Remote viewing
for the operator is provided by the built in 6.8 inch TFT monitor
screen, and on board power supply that allows for 10 hours of
shooting time.
BODY BOOM provides the fastest set up times between shots and
the smallest footprint of any boom, or any jib arm in the business.
Because the system is worn by the operator, the only floor space
needed is the width of the operators shoes, and, the only time
required to relocate the BODY BOOM, is the time it takes for the
operator to walk to the new location, saving production companies
time and money. The unique "Lightning Bolt" design of
the system allows people to walk under the boom in crowded situations.
Need a dolly or tracking shot? No problem. The BODY BOOM also works great on
rollerblades! When space permits the operator can skate on his own, but when
space is limited, the operator can simply be pushed by an assistant that is walking
or jogging next to them providing smooth tracking shots, all the time retaining
the abilty to boom, pan, tilt, and zoom! No more need to lay down tracks for
just one shot, the BODY BOOM allows for total creative freedom in a fraction
of the time, and at a fraction of the cost. Our systems have even been used on
ice for tracking shots of figure skaters and hockey players, putting the audience
out on the ice with the athletes and allowing for unique never before seen footage!
