 Welcome to the Crimson Engine. My name is Rebedium. Today we are here with the e-motomo motion control system on a Dana Dali So we I'm shooting a You know 30 second 45 second spot for e-motomo It's the the premise is it's an evolution of the studio so I've gone and got a whole bunch of old computers old cameras old lenses and I'll be doing Separate passes with each of those items and a blank Cabinet blank desk blank room and then what I'll do is stack those passes Which we'll do in premiere and then fade between them so you can see the different elements being built or evolving Motion control systems used to cost hundreds of thousands dollars. E-motomo now has won the basic packages like twenty five hundred bucks This is a little bit more kitted out because this is a dolly system allows me to use the motion control head as well as Slide it backwards and forward on the dolly. So the way this works is there are three elements of control on the pantilt head the dolly and the focus ring I can set a setting for all three of those so I'm gonna set my start point as here I'm gonna set my end point as Somewhere over here, and I can if I had to focus ring on I could just focus as well Then I choose the duration so it's gonna happen over let's say four seconds and I'm gonna choose the ramp so it doesn't start with a jerk. It slowly ramps up and slowly ramps down I'm gonna set that at two seconds. I Can also set intermediate frame so it could go and then come back But for now, I'm just gonna have an end point at that point then I hit I tell it to go to the start point I Leave the control on the dolly because otherwise I always lose it. I hit record on the camera it go Now the motion control system will run through that as I've asked it to Then I can stop on the camera change something in the scene Tell it to go back to the start do what I want to do hit record again Let's start again. It'll run through the same shot again identically so that every single take of this will be able to be stacked on one a stacked on top of one another and match Pixel to pixel so you know the advantage of a motion control system like this is that you can You know match individual takes with one another you can also if I were to change the duration from take to take So I could do one take at five seconds one take at 50 seconds one take at 500 seconds So when I when I shorten the longer ones and match them up the motion will match But one will be slow motion. Well, I'll be fast Emoto has a couple of clips on their website with skater that That uses that technology where they're the guy in front is real-time and that his background is Superfast motion. It's a pretty great system. I found myself finding new applications for it new things to do with it once you have the ability to Replicate a move again and again and again It opens up all sorts of things one of the other common Uses for this is an interview footage. You can set a start point an end point on an angle So if I want to set my start point I'll exit out of the one. I just did I'll set a new start point with the camera facing in Set an end point at the other end of the slider with the camera facing in again, so Like keeping a subject tracked once I start the camera should go back and forth between those two points So if you're using an interview you want to keep the person locked in the space and with the camera to ping pong back and forth Obviously you're doing much slower than this But keeping one fixed point in perspective Really great solution for doing that as well So I feel like once you have the technology you start to find new ways to use it and you end up Putting all kinds of shots the basic technology is a pan-tilt head can go in a tripod then you add third element of a slider and Imodomo makes Kits for all different types of sliders like the Dana dolly Like the mighty slider Sydney sliders all kinds of third-party ones With this little a little motor that's customized for each one and a band That runs between the two sides so the camera can pull itself along and then the third element This is a 15 mil rail mount and you can have one or two of these wheels to just focus or zoom and like I said that can just become part of the shot so you can either keep focus or You can rack focus as you move forward All kinds of possibilities. I really enjoyed using this. I really want to now come up with ideas to use it Again in different scenarios Imodomo is doing really exciting stuff. I really Hopefully you guys enjoy behind the scenes and a little video we did with them I really appreciate the collaboration and hope to do more stuff like this in the future Thanks to Brian from a motor mo for hooking us up with all this gear Leave your questions in the comments and I will see you next time
