Case Studies

Toronto-based motion control rental house 2D House became one of the first clients of MRMC to get their hands on the Cinebot Mini and quickly put it to good use. Recently shooting some visually impressive spots for both McDonald's and Villaggio, they found its ease of use and compact build to speed up the production process tenfold.

Colin Michael Quinn played a crucial role in bringing a pivotal sequence to life in Spider-Man: No Way Home, where the Green Goblin punches Spiderman through a window. Using the Bolt Cinebot on a three-meter track, Colin was tasked with capturing the punch in slow motion before orbiting the Bolt at high speed behind Tom Holland for one intense and visually stunning shot.

The visual wonders of advanced motion control (MOCO) technology have reached China, on the set of The Wandering Earth 2, the highly anticipated second instalment of China’s first and largest sci-fi film franchise. Using MOCO to power their creativity, Director of Photography Michael Liu and his team have put together powerfully crafted, cutting-edge scenes in this sequel, ultimately pushing the boundaries of what Chinese filmmakers can do.

Burberry's creative team aimed to produce an exhilarating promotional video for their new TikTok campaign. Their imaginative concept featured clones and dynamic camera movements for the collection of TikTok videos, that involved some challenging motion control and clever pre-visualisation work.

Motion Control experts Robotface Studios was approached by advertising & communications agency The Shannon Company to turn an otherwise static shot of two people into a visually unexpected vertical orbital camera movement.

Using two Bolt Cinebots, Visual engineering & cinema robotics company 6 Degrees was tasked with creating a visually stunning, but extremely challenging commercial for the supermarket giant, Lidl.

MrMoco Rentals were tasked with promoting the release of the new Lotus Eletre Type 132. The team needed to utilise pre-vis and tech-vis with precise motion control to fulfil the director’s vision. This resulted in the final cut being displayed at Lotus’ "Carved By Air" event, where the new car was revealed.

Creative agency Amplify approached the MrMoco Rentals team to help capture the new Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo. They were challenged to create a new commercial to excite a younger audience by creating a one-of-a-kind viewing experience, capturing the new Porsche in the place it feels most comfortable — the great outdoors.

It is always a great pleasure to work for iconic car brands, and you can’t get more iconic than the luxury British car manufacturer Bentley. The new film commercial directed by Valentin petit & produced by OCURENS and UNIT 9 required some very precise motion control shots inside the car.

Cross section camera transitions are always a winner on the screen. Couple them with motion control for a carousel-like edit and you’ll get one of the simplest, most effective visual effects. Based on this principle the Yellow days’ music video “how can I love you?” used a camera that travels vertically 15 floors underground witnessing 15 different changes of scenarios all set in a room.

The successful adoption of Virtual Production techniques in high-end productions, such as Disney’s Mandolorian, has initiated a surge in interest in this industry-changing technology. RiTE Media are at the cutting-edge of this creative revolution, working closely with Epic Games, the developer of the Unreal Engine – the real-time 3D creation tool that is powering virtual production advancements. Through their development of new tools, techniques and by integrating motion control robots, they have broken new ground in virtual production.

n this visually stunning piece, the Bolt X, Bolt Jr+, and Bolt execute a complex series of precisely timed moves that demonstrate each rig’s key features and give a visual comparison of the three systems side-by-side. With such a complex brief to show in a 90-second video the speed, precision and range of movements that each member of the Bolt Cinebot™ family is capable of, while concisely communicating the technical specs of each robot was not a simple one. With this in mind, we turned to one of Europe’s leading motion control and VFX experts, Julian Hermannsen.
