ARRI has announced Remote Solutions, a powerful toolkit that can be customized to meet near-set and off-set workflows. This remote production ecosystem allows professionals to safely and immediately get back to work without compromising operational and creative control.
Just to be clear, this isn’t a series of new products. It is a way to use existing ARRI products for remote productions.
Key features
- Enables crews to technically and creatively operate ARRI’s industry-leading cameras and lights from any distance or location
- Industry-proven toolkit facilitates near-set or off-set workflows for optimal social distancing and onset safety for broadcast, cinema, and live events
- Produce premium, unequaled cinematic quality with near-set and off-set workflows for broadcast, cinema, live events, corporate, sports, music video production, fashion, and more
By using a complete system of connected ARRI cameras, lights, remote heads, and accessories, ARRI Remote Solutions offers workflows that enable safe social distancing between talent and crew as well as between crew members.
Applications such as Stellar, the intelligent lighting control app from ARRI, provides a smart and innovative way to control professional lighting. It allows gaffers to change color temperature and output without touching lights or approaching talent. Products such as the WCU-4 and the ERM (External Radio Module) allow crews to control focus and camera movement from a greater distance and through barriers such as concrete floors or walls while the SRH (Stabilized Remote Head), enables cinematic movement of the camera and can be combined with a robotic dolly for near-set movement without approaching talent. Simultaneously, web control allows cinematographers and gaffers to creatively and technically control the camera and lighting from another room or even another continent. The result is cinematic quality, no matter the crew’s distance or location.
