It’smotorised too:Essentially a motorised platform that traverses the Big Shed main studio roof space (a distance of just over 12 metres) offering camera operators numerous viewing angles.
The advantages:No wasted time building scaffolding towers or gantries – also giving clients the ability to use all the available floor space. No compromised lighting to your subject or set. Easy operation with ultra-quick set up. “The Cage” offers many views to large infinity cove and was designed by photographers for photographers.
