we needed to shoot 12 K and the only way
of doing that is with this beast which
is six Red Dragons all stitched together
and mounted on the shotover unit here
attached into this helicopter each of
these cameras will be shooting six K so
we have a total image of 36 K the the
largest image that we think is possible
at this moment we're going to be
stitching this together in order to form
our total 12 K image and tomorrow
morning we will be flying this over Los
Angeles
so this is a stabilized platform it's
taking out all the movement of the
helicopter so we're up flying around and
react our film pilot is positioning the
camera but on all the movements of the
helicopter actually sort of reversed
stabilized out of this this is a very
smooth sort of floating look over the
city so it's quite peaceful and we're
picking these very carefully constructed
frames that a graphic and show you know
a landscape or a particular view it's
quite a setup you know it's not
something that you cash orally deploy
the primary development on this system
is feature film work there's a lot of
visual effects everybody knows in movies
so we're always trying to get
backgrounds and elements that are
composited that they use computer
graphics or so one of the advantages to
using a system like this on a movie
because of so many cameras getting such
a wide field of view you can make
certain decisions and post later you can
put this background behind the scene and
depending on how the scene is framed
you've always got something to go back
there it's like capturing a big backdrop
