Jersey
Jibs carries the Stanton Jimmy Jib Camera Crane system, offering both
the Triangle and the model III versions. The cranes are constructed
of rigid aluminum tubing and their modular design enables a variety
of different configurations and lengths starting from 3' all the way
to a 30' arm length. (See spec chart.) The
base footprint is small enough to easily fit into interior locations
but large and rugged enough to hold a 50 lb. camera at 35 ft. high.

Portable
The Crane breaks down and packs into 4' cases which easily transport
on airlines as checked and/or extra baggage, and has done so many, many
times.

Mobile
The crane is also extremely mobile with the offroad wheels and base
(supplied). This saves time and money by allowing faster acquisition
of shots and easier camera repositioning. There is no need to repo a
dolly on dolly track to achieve shots with motion, or to use a ladder
to acquire high angle shots. Optional dolly track wheels are available
and they fit standard round dolly track.
Operating
Our cranes are designed to go out as a package,
including a skilled operator who controls the entire crane. This includes
moving the arm and operating both the Camera and Remote head. Although
we prefer our Cranes to go packaged in this configuration, we do offer
separate controls for remote operation.
Cost effective
Rental fee even includes the cost of the remote head. Most cranes
systems charge additional fees for a remote head.
All packages
include:
The crane arm, remote head with electronics, camera and lens control,
tripod, off-road base, and one monitor (for operator).
Packages
do not come with camera. Client supplies or Jersey Jibs can rent camera
packages for additional cost.
