It was born out of cinema. From our love for cinema to be exact. Gathered in 2010 today we represent on the biggest rental companies in Baltic countries, running a specialized grip department gang – Cinemotion.
Cameras are what we take care of – fasten, drive, lift, carry, fly – you name it! If needed – softly as a baby or faster than cheetahs. We create, test and solve any camera move tasks for cinema, commercial and tv production industries.
Movement is life. Slow, fast, powerful, subtle or swift – movement is our passion which we want to share with you!
Gyrostabilized remotely-controlled Black Unicorn Crane is designed to solve a huge range of complex operator’s tasks when shooting stationary and moving objects. It allows to increase the dynamics and add drama to any scene. High precision and ease of use, combined with powerful characteristics, significantly expands the technical capabilities of filming.
The MB45 is a relatively versatile telescopic crane suitable for any film set or TV studio as this crane has the same dolly‚ footprint’ as the smaller MB30 crane. It is universal to work with and depending on the type and weight of camera package carried it is possible to modify the length and reach of the arm from 35 feet to 45 feet in a matter of minutes. Owing to the cranes small weight and size when disassembled it can be transported in a standard 16 ton truck or a bespoke trailer. The Mb45 is currently the most desired telescopic crane available on the market today.
Today the requirements for a modern production are extremely high and complex. The awareness for safety is high, the budget usually low. Time for production is short, the staff likewise. Panther took all these challenges into consideration and found an intelligent solution: The FOXY, a unique crane concept. All parts of the crane can be stored and transported on the dolly. The PANTHER FOXY Crane is a product that has been created and built by experts for experts – to satisfy the high demands of every grip and camera man.
The Panther Vario Jib is a versatile camera jib arm. Telescopic arms on both sides make the Vario Jib a universal piece of equipment for many shots. The max. payload is 80kg / 176lbs, despite its compact design and weight of only 22kg / 48lbs. The length of the Vario Jib can be extended with an extention (available in 2 different lengths) up to 1m. This adjustment is done very fast and without any tools.
Features:
Length
(retracted without extention) 1 m | 3,28 ft.
max. Length
(extended without extention) 1,6 m | 5,25 ft.
max. Length
(extended with 1 m extention) 2,6 m | 8,5 ft.
Weight
(without extention) 22 kg
Payload 80 kg
Weighing only 29 lbs. (13.2kg), it supports 40 lbs. (18kg) of camera and fluid head. So compact, it folds up with no loose parts and fits into a baby tripod case. Its unique telescopic design allows it to work in constricted areas and also unfold to create a dramatic 6 foot lift. And best of all, it uses the 100mm style tripod and head you already own. Like the rest of the Losmandy line, it is manufactured to the highest quality standards: all parts are anodized black machined aluminum or stainless steel. All moving parts are controlled by sealed precision ball bearings. Bubble levels are located on the center column and camera plate for easy levelling. With a weight ratio of less than one-to-one, and the sliding counterweight shaft for fine tuning, the arm can be balanced in a matter of seconds, with a limited number of counter weights. Since no chains, belts or cables are used, the Losmandy Porta-Jib Traveller requires little maintenance. Boom friction and pan friction with variable drag are standard features.
The Panther Tower provides new ideas and unprecedented shooting for a cost-effective price. With electrically powered movements and remote control, the tower is perfect for dynamic driving shots with a remote head. It can be mounted and applied to any vehicle both vertically and horizontally. The lightweight and slim design ensures a good view for the driver. The Tower was designed to be able to move a lot of load. As a result, it reaches a maximum payload of up to 80kg / 176 lbs.
The new Classic Plus camera dolly is the successor of the worldwide loved Classic Dolly. The operators love the Classic and with the new Classic Plus a new standard was set. The dolly is based on a rugged, almost maintenance free and sturdy design. The central column configuration of the Classic PLUS Dolly provides its user with easy operation and unconstrained versatility already in his basic configuration. All control elements are coloured to be easily recongized and easy to handle. The bolts can be fixed in „open“ position and can be adapted to the tracks perfectly – especially in curves. The ergonomic design facilitates intuitive working. Switch-over is completely done without tools. So the Classic Plus can be operated in narrow gauge (36 cm) or in wide gauge (62 cm) by using the locking pin.
The Twister Doorway Dolly offers you new possibilities concerning mobility and flexibility. It is characterized by the new foldable push bar, which ensures more space and comfort for the cameraman and his assistant. The Twister Dolly is also available with wide go-kart wheels now! The central performance features are the combination between studio wheels and track wheels. They immediately allow the possibility to drive on tracks (gauge 62cm) or with studio wheels, without the time consuming wheel change. With the low total width of the dolly (78cm) moves through door widths should not pose any problem. With the three choosable steering modes (front, rear and round-a-round) the Twister dolly can maneuver itself comfortably and it can be filmed exactly around an object. With the three choosable steering modes (front, rear and round-a-round) the Twister dolly can maneuver itself comfortably and it can be filmed exactly around an object. According to your needs the front or the rear wheels will steer separately from each other or can be combined with each other. Also tightest curves are no problem because of an inner radius of 42cm. Both axles possess an excellent steering geometry for precise movements without screeching and remains quite silent. The geometry on the steering axles provides accurate movements with low dynamic friction and creates minimal operating noise. Additional ease of use is supplied by the newly developed rod that combines the well known drawbar with a rugged push bar. Six different positions for assembly of the push bar give additional support e.g. to the Steadycam operator. The steering rod is in every angle from 0-90° adjustable.
