Some BTS of Parkway Drive video Sacred - this gives you a taste of how many things going on behind the scenes. We were brought in our Bolt robot and slow motion Phantom camera to catch some stunning visuals crafted by Carl Allison ACS and team for director Third Eye Visuals

Excuse the audio editing in this one, there was no way to splice clips together with single original track, so using mostly studio playback audio here. Catch the video Sacred on youtube.

🤔 How do you take a camera move created in a virtual world and reproduce it precisely on set?

Using animation software such as Maya, along with our own in-house motion control tools, camera paths can be designed, refined and approved before filming begins. That data can then be transferred directly to our motion control robots, allowing the exact movement to be recreated in the real world.

The result is a seamless connection between previs, production and post-production. Visual effects elements, actors and multiple passes can all be filmed separately while maintaining perfect alignment frame after frame.

It’s one of the ways motion control helps bridge the gap between digital planning and live-action filmmaking.

Revealed – Death Cap Murders is a 2025 Stan Original examining the 2023 Victorian mushroom poisoning case, where three people died after eating a beef Wellington. The three-part series follows the investigation, the trial of Erin Patterson, and the global media attention around it.

We joined the team to help add a new perspective to documentary storytelling - the team used the Cinebot Mini to build a series of repeatable shots allowing the storytellers to create a new take on how evidence can be discussed on screen. Also a dropped in a great time-lapse shot real time with an actor, then ran the same robot move over 20minutes to film the police officers collecting evidence behind her.

Now available on Stan and Apple TV, with support from Screen Australia.
