What gear to bring on set can vary a lot from production to production. It depends on what kind of result you want, how complex the scenes are and how fast you want to shoot. The commercial we shot for JetKids needed well looking images as they wanted to showcase their travel products. JetKids makes suitcases for children, which can turn a seat into a bed!

The client told us about an airplane which we could use for this shoot. As the plane had to be on ground, we had to fake that it was flying. We could just burn out the windows and make it completely white to cover the fact that we were not flying, but as a director I thought we should use a greenscreen so we could add a custom sky afterwards. That could also help us tell a story about a family traveling during night and using the clients product to sleep and have comfortable flight.

We thought that we should have moving images to make the commercial a bit more interesting. I immediately thought about using the iFootage mini crane M1-III, which I have been using for over 4 years now. Could we fit this inside the plane and use our dolly with it? If so, we could then create smooth shots and vary the angles quite fast.

We chose to use our Panasonic EVA1 as the main camera with the Sigma 18-35mm. And as we were going to use a lot of moving shots, a focus puller was essential. I had been using the Tilta Nucleus-M in a previous project, and was very happy with it!

On this shoot we also tested the Accsoon Cineye video transmitter. It transmits 1080p video signal to smart devices such as ipads and smartphones. And with their software you can actually record the video on your phone or tablet as well! All you do is to connect it to your camera and connect the smart device to the cineye through wifi. The range is 100 metres in open spaces and the latency is about 60ms which is enough to do focus pulling in most types of shots.
