The Slow Mo Guys take on the iconic elevator-effect from Severance, using their Bolt to recreate the eerie moment where reality seems to warp and outie transitions into innie. With a makeshift set and synchronised timing, they demonstrate how motion control technology can bring this cinematic technique to life, all without the need for post-production.

Take a behind-the-scenes look at the opening sequence of Severance Season 2 and how the Bolt X Cinebot played a key role in capturing the frantic energy of the moment. Using motion control, see how The Garage helped mirror Adam Scott’s character’s confusion and urgency with some clever camera work, making for a standout opening scene in the show.

The Servant series finale brought the show to a dramatic and visually stunning close. This blog takes a behind-the-scenes dive at how The Garage used the Bolt in tangent with the MRMC Tracker App to deliver a 360° fiery sequence that combined fluid handheld motion with frame-accurate motion control.

This IBC panel session spotlighted Steve Giralt, the renowned DP and Director from NYC's The Garage, as he delved into his innovative use of MRMC robotics and RED cameras in virtual production. Assaff Rawner, CEO of MRMC, and Dan Duran from RED shared expert insights on the groundbreaking applications of their products in the evolving industry, while Milo Hancock from Disguise provided an in-depth overview of Disguise's cutting-edge virtual production technology.

The Cinebot Mini is revolutionising motion control for filmmakers, offering portability, precision, and efficiency at an affordable price. Weighing just 200 lbs (90kg) when assembled, it’s compact enough for a small crew to transport and set up in under an hour. Its lightweight design allows you to easily move it across the set, maximizing the number of shots per day—crucial for production efficiency.

We're delighted to announce the launch of our new series, the "MRMC Academy" - your one-stop shop for all things motion control. Starting with the basics and advancing to more complex topics as you become more familiar with the field, this series acts as a user-friendly guide that answers your questions in a clear and accessible format.

2024 marks a significant milestone in the history of MRMC as it is 30 years since we launched the groundbreaking Milo motion control rig back in 1994. It has become the industry standard for precise and repeatable camera movements in film and television production. The Milo broke the mould of traditional motion control systems as it introduced new advanced robotics that allowed for more complex, repeatable camera moves with higher precision than had been seen before. Stable enough for macro work, and fast enough for live-action shooting, it has remained a game-changer in the film industry.

Esteemed director Zack Snyder teamed up with YouTube sensations — The Slow Mo Guys, to capture a dramatic slow-motion shot inspired by 300. Using the Bolt Cinebot, they aimed to hit an apple with a cricket bat in Snyder's signature style. Snyder talks about the challenges he encountered while filming slow motion for 300, including using multiple cameras and a beam splitter for zoom effects. Today, the Bolt Cinebot simplifies this process, providing high-speed precision for smooth, real-time shots.

With the arrival of NAB Show, the Cinebot Max has made its grand debut to the world after being revealed little over a week ago. Boasting an increased payload, reach and range of motion compared to the Cinebot Mini, the Max is set to take the show by storm. We're showcasing the Cinebot Max as part of "The Unreal Ride", giving you the chance to be among the first ever to be captured by it, with the added perk of taking home your own personalised movie.

We had a fantastic IBC Show in Amsterdam, launching a range of new robotics and solutions across both Film & Commerical and Broadcast.

Turn your phone into a director's viewfinder, frame shots, record moves, and export actions effortlessly.

We are excited to unveil the new Cinebot Mini, a compact, lightweight, live-action camera robot that gives users full manual control over camera positions — making complex motion control movements simple!

We're thrilled to share highlights from this year's NAB Show where we showcased a range of robotics, including The Unreal Ride in the Central Lobby, and unveiled a new generation of broadcast solutions in the Central Hall.

The Slow Mo Guys made a recent appearance on the BBC to reveal the secrets behind their stunning slow-motion footage.

Moco operators from across the globe convened in New York for the first-ever Advanced Motion Control Training Summit.

In this feature, Assaff Rawner, CEO, talks through how the versatile nature of camera robotics is causing widespread adoption across a diverse range of industries.

We are excited to showcase our Winter robotics showreel, focusing on some brilliant through-the-lens, high-speed work captured by the Bolt Cinebot Range.

The moco experts down under at Robotface released a great video demonstrating the MRMC Tracker App in action. Until now, Robotface used the app for only tracking cameras but was also keen to test out its ability to be useful in tracking other movements also related to a shot.

With over 14 million Youtube subscribers, 'The Slow Mo Guys' partnered up with motion control expert and esteemed CEO of The Garage, Steve Giralt to create a cool stunt that was captured using the Bolt X.

Our head is still spinning from the incredible reaction we got last month at NAB Show with our Unreal Ride exhibit in the central lobby with partner Vū Studio!  It was great to be back at trade shows and to see our clients, partners, and a tremendous amount of new faces; captivated by the endless possibilities of motion control and virtual production.

Starting the New Year, we wanted to share a new high-speed showreel, featuring a collection of fantastic robotics work. The reel demonstrates a range of high-speed systems, including Bolt™ Jr+, Bolt™, Bolt X, and the Bolt Mini Model from some of the top moco operators and production companies around the world, including Mushang, RiTE Media, Steve Hirsch, LÉMA Slow, The Garage, To Be Production, Vū Studios, Axsix, Viramontes, Reflex Motion Control to name just a few.

We are excited to share this testimonial from production company Manmade Media, talking about why they chose MRMC robotics for their work.

Creating visually spectacular shots isn’t easy, it takes time, preparation, lighting and kit to just name a few of the basics. Then there is the vision, how the Director wants to visualise the story being told.

It is that time of year where we round up a collection of high-speed work to showcase just a snippet of the incredible Bolt™ action from around the world. As usual, customers are producing brilliant high-speed action content, and we are spoilt for choice to show just a small selection of the incredible work being produced.

Every month we’ll be taking a look at some of the coolest & most awe-inspiring motion control that’s taking place across the globe using our award-winning camera robot robots and software as well as a look behind the scenes of some amazing shoots!
