How to do 3D sky shots in the UK

. Posted in 3D Cameras, 3D Rigs, 3D shooting

Jonathan and Chris Watts fromBritish Technical Films (Farringdon, UK) have recently developed a new specially designed gyro stabilised  triple-rotor helicopter for SD, HD, 3D and stills.  The SkyBot Mk2 has been built with stability, stealth and smooth flight in mind.

SkyBot Mk2 is fitted with two GoPRO HD cameras. The CNC machined airframe in aluminium combined with gyro stabilisation and camera roll and tilt compensation provides the perfect aerial tool. You can see the result on YouTube in a sequence done for Discovery Channel.

Visit British Technical Films to learn more about the SkyBot Mk2 and how to rent/buy it.
