OPERATIONAL PHILOSOPHY

THE GEAR IS USELESS WITHOUT THE OPERATOR.


A camera is just metal and glass until you put it in the fight. The WarpCam® isn't a rental item. It is a doctrine. It was born from a simple reality I faced on set: standard equipment breaks where the action actually happens.


We don't treat this system as a "storyteller." We treat it as a tactical asset. From the student trenches at the Filmakademie to the billion-dollar sets of Hollywood and Bollywood, we have proven that the machine is only as capable as the hands holding it.


We don’t just rent you a box. We deploy a unit. My team is trained to extract performance from the rig that a standard operator cannot reach. We have taken this system into the kill zone for the biggest names in the business:


Ryan Gosling (The Gray Man): Inside the tram fight, weaving through close-quarters combat.


Jason Momoa (Fast X): Inches from the tire tread during high-speed motorcycle chases.


Chadwick Boseman (21 Bridges): Tracking tactical movement through urban manhunts.


Shah Rukh Khan (Jawan): Executing the signature wrap-around shots that defined the hero moments.


THE RESULT: We make the "impossible" shot a standard procedure. We eliminate the guesswork. We protect the schedule. We don't just capture the visual; we guarantee the execution.

HEAVY GEAR KILLS MOMENTUM.


Studio cameras are anchors. They require carts, cables, and time. In an action sequence, time is the enemy.

We stripped the fat. The entire WarpCam® arsenal - lenses, remotes, uplinks, and all-day power - fits inside a single Pelican™ 1650 Protector Case. We don't occupy the set; we infiltrate it. This means lightning-fast setups and a footprint so small it allows the Director to move faster than the schedule dictates.

MIRRORED REDUNDANCY.


IF IT BREAKS, WE DON'T CUT.

In the kill zone, equipment is a casualty of war. When you are filming inches from a crash or inside an explosion, gear gets destroyed. That is the reality of the job.

We don't rely on luck; we rely on Mirrored Redundancy. Every WarpCam® unit travels with a clone. If a drift car smashes the primary rig or a pyrotechnic charge melts the housing, we don't shut down the day. We open the second case.

We are back online in 60 seconds. We don’t just pack light. We pack for the worst-case scenario.


AERIAL COMBAT: THE FPV REVOLUTION

STANDARD GIMBALS DIE AT 3Gs.


When you bank a racing drone at 80 miles per hour, you aren't just flying; you are fighting physics. The G-forces generated in a hard turn will lock up a standard cinema gimbal. The motors fail, the horizon tilts, and the shot becomes unwatchable.


We built the WarpCam® to survive the turn.


This system is tuned for high-torque resistance. Unlike fixed-camera FPV drones that force the audience to tilt their heads with every maneuver, the WarpCam® maintains a perfect, independent horizon. The drone can be flying sideways through a narrow alley, but the image remains cinematic, stable, and level.


THE FAST X PROVING GROUND We didn't test this in a lab. We proved it on the set of Fast X. Working under the command of Stunt Coordinator Andy Gill, we pioneered a new category of aerial cinematography. We didn't just follow the cars; we became a projectile.


The WarpCam® allows us to fly through the explosion, not just over it. It allows us to chase a drift car from inches away without losing stabilization.



We don't just capture the aerial view. We capture the pilot's aggression.

Handheld Mastery: Versatility at its Finest

When you think of handheld camera operations, what comes to mind? For many, it's the freedom of movement, the fluidity of shots, and the ability to capture scenes from unique, dynamic angles. WarpCam® elevates this concept to a whole new level, offering filmmakers unparalleled versatility. Here's why:


  • Dual Operator Synergy: The WarpCam® introduces a game-changing approach with its separation between the 'Physical Operator' and the 'Virtual Operator'. The Physical Operator, hands-on with the camera, can focus intently on navigating the action-packed environments and stunt scenarios. At the same time, the Virtual Operator dedicates their expertise to perfecting the framing in sync with the Director of Photography (DoP). This dual-operator system not only maximizes efficiency but also significantly elevates the safety standards for high-octane action shots.


  • Mounting Flexibility with Telescopic Carbon Fibre Pole: One of WarpCam®'s standout features is its diverse mounting options. After rigorous testing on set, the solution emerged as a telescopic carbon fibre pole. This addition propelled the camera's flexibility to new heights. Combined with a specially trained operator, the WarpCam® experience becomes truly unparalleled.


  • Lightweight Design: At the heart of WarpCam®'s versatility is its weight, or rather, the lack thereof. Designed with ease of movement in mind, its lightweight build allows operators to move with agility, ensuring they don’t tire easily during long shooting sequences.


  • Compact Build: The compact dimensions of the WarpCam® mean that it can navigate tight spaces with ease. Whether squeezing through a crowded marketplace or capturing a close-up in a cramped car interior, its design ensures that space is never a limitation.


  • Advanced Stabilization: Handheld doesn't have to mean shaky. With its advanced stabilization technology, WarpCam® ensures that even in the most rigorous handheld operations, the footage remains smooth and cinematic, effectively eliminating unintentional jitters and shakes.


In conclusion, the WarpCam®'s design, combined with its advanced technological features, positions it as the gold standard for handheld operations. It's not just a camera—it's a filmmaker's trusted companion, enabling them to bring their most ambitious handheld visions to life.
