Camera Cages & Camera Mounts

Aerial filming form MEWPs

Access platforms are an ideal for use with aerial filming.   They are a safe and solid platform, which can be quickly and smoothly repositioned to ensure that all the action is captured on film.

Here at Elev8 our IPAF trained MEWP Operators are experienced at providing the right access solution for high level filming.  We have supplied access platforms for many projects including filming movies, major sporting events & filming news as it happens.

Elev8 believe in investing in MEWPs and attachments to help our film & TV production customers film aerial footage safely and efficiently.  MEWPs from our fleet can be hired with the following attachments designed specifically for filming from access platforms:

Camera Cage

Our specialist camera cage can be mounted onto either our Bronto S50 XDT-J  or S56-XR MEWPs.

 

The cage has camera mountings and a seat for the camera person’s comfort.  It can be revolved by the passengers and makes filming all-round aerial footage smooth and easy for your camera person.

Camera Mount

The access platform basket provides a comfortable and solid surface for the camera operator, and the camera itself can be mounted onto the camera mount built onto the MEWP cage of a selection of our access platforms.  This gives a safe and steady mounting for camera equipment.
