Cinevate shares a clever idea of adding wheels to their Simplis stabilizer rig allowing them to get more creative dolly / tracking shots. They’ve provided it with the name ‘Trawly’. Very clever stuff guys! What do you guys think?

Checking out some new ideas for upcoming car related footage, here’s a fun clip to share. This BTS video is using Cinevate stuff for a NOS energy drink clip. Not sure how many of you caught this video since it’s been up for a few months now, but if you’re into cars and cameras it’s [...]
