Production

Portable, reliable motion control for every production

Motion Control & Fully repeatable high speed Robotic systems
Motion control in film production enables precise, repeatable camera movements, creating a wide range of visual effects. As the official rental division of Mark Roberts Motion Control, we offer access to the world’s largest range of motion control rigs for hire. Our highly specialised systems allow us to execute everything from high-speed live-action shots to intricate macro work, with full control over speed, stability, reach, and any other specific requirements your project demands. Whether you need the broadest range of movement available or a more portable solution with quick setup times, we have a motion control system or bespoke build available to rent that perfectly meets your needs.

Virtual Production
In virtual production, motion control is essential for syncing camera movements with virtual backgrounds, creating a seamless experience where the background feels natural and responsive. Thanks to a wide variety of data streaming protocols, we can interface with any software for LED volume rendering and 3D-to-real-life rig calibration, ensuring smooth, repeatable camera movements that perfectly align with the digital environment. This guarantees stability and precision, ensuring that camera movements stay fluid and aligned with virtual backgrounds. Unlike traditional optical tracking, this approach allows for the creation of camera angles that would be impossible to achieve by hand. Our motion control camera rigs ensure every camera move is stable and frame-accurately repeatable, eliminating the need for multiple takes and enabling quick adjustments to sets, lighting, and VFX in post-production.

Global Outreach

Pre-programming and pre-planning motion control moves means we can begin work as soon as we receive your brief. This allows us to both plan the moves for your shoot and transport your motion control rig for hire at the same time, ensuring that when the equipment arrives, the moves are ready to go—hitting the ground running. We have a fleet of trucks capable of covering Europe within two days, and our logistics team manages worldwide rig shipments, making it easy to rent and bring our systems to you, no matter where you are. Our recent locations include South Africa, the USA, Qatar, Dubai, and India. We handle all logistics, including ATA carnets, custom crates, and varying truck sizes, ensuring everything arrives safely and on time. Once on set, we quickly set up your camera rig and get straight to filming, so you can sit back, relax and let us show you why we’re the number one choice for motion control rental.
