Description:

Cineped is a value-creating camera support system and it consists of 3 components: 1-3.5 ft rotational slider, 1-mechanical post, and 1-spider type base with 4 legs and 4 wheels. Normally, it takes 2-3 minutes to assemble & disassemble. Cineped provides a variety of precise camera movements from smooth flowing images, rapid & sudden movements to long camera movements like the dolly or steadicam on fine smooth surface. Cinematographers/videographers can make instantaneous and unique camera movements by a simple push, pull, slide, swing, turn and walk with the camera at any place. One of the Cineped's inventive camera movement is called the "twirling movement." The twirling move is spinning or rotating around the object in a rhythmic or artful manner. This is different from the "swirling movement," which is a 360 degree turn around the dancing couple to magnify their emotions to the audience. Cineped is the most effective & efficient camera support system for 3D-production for finely-aligned camera positioning, camera movement & multiple camera set-ups per day. Cineped is a mobile camera platform, but unlike the dolly it is not applied by another person even though it is mountable on the track. Cineped not only contributes an easy, fast, simple solution for camera movements but offers significant production value through those different camera movements. Cineped is a producer, Director, D/P and production manager friendly device.
