CRANE PACKAGE (Call for Pricing)

Elevate (pun intended) your projects with our configurable and super-stable Kessler Jib. Drones definitely have their place, but there's nothing like a smooth, expertly controlled and operated jib to significantly increase your production value.

  • Our jib can handle large camera payloads, up to 25lbs.

  • The jib is virtually silent, so no noise distractions on a quiet set.

  • The jib can bring the camera inches from the talent's face, with no safety issues

  • Our jib can also be rail-mounted for added mobility and flexibility

CONFIGURABLE

The Kesler Jib can be configured with various arm lengths: specifically 8', 12' and 18'. When  configured as 8', the jib can be effectively used as a super flexible tripod, allowing for 360-degree motion , operated from the head-end. The 12' and 18' setups allow for a more traditional jib operation, utilizing the remote P&T head and the follow-focus.

DOLLY TRACK

The ultra heavy-duty K-Pod support system can be fitted with dolly truck wheels and the whole jib mounted on rails, either straight or curved (using "flex-track"). This gives you unmatched ability to maneuver the entire jib assembly horizontally while still maintaining the 360 degree motion of the jib arm itself. 

CONTROL

Because of the multiple degrees of freedom afforded by a jib, operating the jib is not a single person job. Ideally, you would have a crew of three people in order to get the best results from your jib setup.

1) Camera pan/tilt/zoom operator

2) Jib arm swing/lift operator

3) Dolly grip (move entire assembly on the tracks)
