Motion control video production for advertising
Choreographed shots for food, drinks and product brands. Camerabotics CRX1440 with an experienced operator, in our Belgian studio or on location across Europe.
The rig — Camerabotics CRX1440
Compact enough to move through standard doors and lifts, accurate enough for the kind of multi-pass compositing that only forgives sub-millimetre repeats. The rig always ships with one of our motion control operators — it's not gear we hand over and walk away from.

- 11 kg payload
- Up to 3 m/s movement
- ± 0.04 mm repeatability
- Runs on 230V mains or battery for location work

Two ways to work with us
Full-service production
You brief us, we shoot. Set design, motion control choreography, lighting, special-effects rigging, capture with 8K RED V Raptor, S5K Freefly Ember or other cameras — everything in one studio with one production team. No coordination across venues, no kit gaps to bridge.
Specialist operator team
You bring the project, we bring the rig and the people who run it. Plug us into your agency or production workflow as the motion control specialists for the day. Works in our studio, in yours, or on location.
Dynamic effects, synced to the move
Motion control gets a lot more interesting when the rig isn't only moving the camera. Our special-effects rigs trigger movement in liquids, powders, ingredients and products — synced to the camera path down to the frame. Common uses:
- Splash shots and timed liquid pours
- Ingredient bursts, drops and arcs
- Spinning, floating or rising product reveals
- Stop-motion-style consistent-angle tracking
- Multi-pass composites where every pass has to register
Our special-effects rigs
Available in-studio or on location, standalone or synced with the motion control rig. They give us precise, repeatable movement of liquids, powders, props and products — the small things that make a tabletop shot feel engineered rather than improvised.

Custom builds
If a product moves in a way none of the standard rigs can replicate, we modify an existing one or build something new for the shoot. Tell us how the product needs to behave and we'll engineer the mechanics around it.
Who hires us for this
Brands and agencies that need a hero motion shot for an advertising campaign and want it produced end to end
Agencies producing tabletop content who'd rather not source a separate rig, operator and studio
Production companies, directors and DOPs who want a tabletop motion control team they can drop in for the specialist day
Post and VFX teams planning multi-pass composite workflows
Why us
What's actually different isn't the rig — anyone can rent a rig. It's the bundle around it:
A 180m² tabletop studio in Welle, purpose-built for this kind of work, with parallel sets, an infinity wall and gear within reach
An operator who works with this rig as a daily tool, not an occasional rental
15 years of food, drinks and product shooting underneath it — the people running the move understand what the product needs to look like, not only how to drive the robot
Tell us about the shot
Describe the motion or effect you're after. We'll work out the rigging and movement path, and tell you the strongest version we can get on your budget and timeline.
