Ask ECG About This Service

What does a camera jib operator provide?

A jib operator plans and executes controlled rising, falling, sweeping, and reveal shots while coordinating the arm, head, camera, monitoring, counterweights, footprint, safety, and communication with the director and camera department.

When is a jib better than a drone or gimbal?

A jib is useful for repeatable, precisely controlled movement near people, products, stages, interiors, or locations where a drone cannot operate. A drone covers larger aerial movement, while a gimbal is better for mobile operator-led tracking.

How much space does a camera jib need?

The footprint depends on arm length, payload, operating height, base, counterweights, movement, and safety clearance. ECG should review the location, access, ceiling height, floor, audience or talent positions, and shot plan before choosing the system.

Can ECG provide the jib, camera, crew, and support equipment?

Yes. ECG can scope the operator, jib or crane system, remote head, camera package, monitoring, grip support, setup time, safety needs, and integration with the rest of the production crew.

What information is needed to book a jib operator?

Share the date, location, schedule, desired shots, arm reach, height, camera and lens payload, interior or exterior conditions, access restrictions, stage or audience layout, crew contacts, insurance requirements, and whether rehearsal time is available.
