RussiAn Arm / CAMERA CHASE VEHiCLE
New in 2024, Russ De Jong's Russian Arm has now been equipped on the new Ford Lightning Electric Vehicle.
Equipped with a 15ft boom, Russ is able to bring surreal vehicle chase camera work to life. At the heart of the camera chase vehicle is the new 3 axis stabilized remote head system by Arri, the SRH-360. This remote head brings fantastic image stabilization and maneuverability, making it a game changer on the Russian Arm and off!
Extensive monitoring and equipment upgrades have been made to facilitate the most efficient and effective system for capturing motion shots. With 3 large 17" monitors and 4 additional smaller monitors used by the tech crew for monitoring the safety of arm/camera, Russ has tailor-designed a slick, clean, and robust system.
