ProAm美国, a manufacturer of production equipment for film and video enthusiasts and professionals, has just launched a Kickstarter运动 to bring its latest innovation, 悬臂臂, 成果. 目标是25美元,截止到7月24日，我们需要29天才能到达, 如果成功, the ProAm美国 CarryOn Jib will be the most compact, 然而市场上的全尺寸起重机.
“作为一名电影制作人, I’ve learned that logistics and limitations of equipment can often come between us and our dreams,乔纳森·巴蒂说, 美国ProAm的总裁, 在他的Kickstarter视频中. “Whether you’re going overseas or trekking into a local wildlife park, without a multi-person crew you’ll have no choice but to limit yourself and perhaps sacrifice that one perfect shot. Without making sacrifices in quality or function, I designed 悬臂臂 to be an easy-to-assemble, modular crane that allows filmmakers to get amazing, dynamic movements that only a crane can provide.”
的 ProAm美国 CarryOn Jib的特点是360度, lockable bearing base with built-in bubble level to provide smooth, 流体运动. Every joint features oil impregnated brass bearings to ensure smooth rotations. Like all ProAm美国 gear, all parts are machined from the highest quality aluminum and then anodized. 的 crane’s coated steel cables that connect to the camera platform provide automatic leveling, while the platform can be swapped out for an optional 75 mm bowl mount.
的 smallest and lightest crane of its kind, 悬臂臂 expands from four feet to a full six feet in length and can collapse into an amazingly compact 22-inches, 安全地安装到航空公司认可的, 手提大小的包. 的 jib’s extension option brings the total length to an impressive eight feet. 完全, 这个包裹只有10磅重, making it possible for filmmakers to easily take anywhere. 的 optional ProAm美国 tripod is also carry-on sized.
“While manufacturing film tools has given me the ability to craft the gear I need, it’s a complicated process that requires a great deal more time, money and energy than I could have ever expected – especially with manufacturing costs rising as consumers demand lower prices,乔纳森说。.“Even so, I’m taking this project on as my personal venture, following the path of innovation. 的re are hundreds of times I can look back where 悬臂臂 was exactly the tool I needed – it just didn’t exist yet. With the help of dedicated backers, I plan to change that.”
ProAm美国手提臂 Kickstarter运动 提供了一些不同的捐赠水平, from a supportive $5 donation to the $799 level, which gets generous backers the four-section eight-foot CarryOn Jib with bag, 速动板, 沙袋, 三脚架和全7英寸HDMI LCD套件.
