SCENE 01 / SPECIALTY RIGS
Specialty Camera Rigs
Advanced rigging solutions for your Indonesian production.
Here is how this works in practice. Specialty rigs are purpose-built car platforms designed for mounting cameras and capturing dynamic driving, chase, and motion sequences. From Russian arms and camera cars to process trailers and insert cars, these rigs enable complex moving shots that would be impossible with standard gear.
Here is the short of it. We source specialty camera rigs and cars from skilled local operators who know the safety and tech needs of car-mounted filming. Our team sets up rig availability, tech specs, and logistics to make sure your unit can capture dynamic vehicular sequences safely and efficiently.

On Location
Camera cars, process trailers, low-loaders, crash housings and custom mounting rigs coordinated from Jakarta and Bali, built and operated for Indonesia's roads, terrain and water locations.
Here is the breakdown. Our team sets up specialty rigs from bases in Jakarta and Bali, supplying camera cars, process trailers, low-loaders, suction and clamp mounts, crash housings and custom-built rigging for shots that standard gear cannot achieve. Driving in Indonesia is on the left. Our rigging team and precision drivers know local roads and conditions. Each rig is risk-checked, mounting hardware load-rated and tested, and complex builds are designed with the production before the shoot.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Tropical conditions shape our work: monsoon rain affects road grip for camera-car and process work, so timing and routes are planned around weather. Humidity and salt air on coastal and water rigs are corrosive, so hardware is cleaned and serviced between setups. And volcanic dust on terrain shoots is guarded against. For shoots moving across the archipelago, specialty rigs are transported on flatbeds, barges and ferries to reach island and remote locations.
Here is how the picture comes together. Skilled operators go with each rig because specialty work demands skilled, safety-focused handling, and rigging meets Indonesian safety rules with full insurance ready. Indonesia's locations open up different specialty-rig work. Camera cars and process trailers suit driving sequences on Bali's coast roads or through Jakarta's urban grid, low-loaders carry picture cars on highway shots, and water rigs serve the country's extraordinary marine settings around Raja Ampat, Komodo National Park and the beaches of Uluwatu and Tanah Lot.
Here is what we have to work with. Indonesian cinema has a strong action heritage, with Gareth Evans's 'The Raid' and 'The Raid 2' setting a benchmark, and skilled local stunt and rigging crews support demanding setups. Roads and terrain differ widely, so route planning and the dry-season window, roughly April or May to September or October, matter for safe rig operation. Foreign shoots need filming permits, set up through the relevant authorities, and rig movements are planned alongside those approvals.
Here is the layout. Specialty rigs carry no RF range considerations, though any wireless remote head or camera-car control link falls under range administered by the Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs, Komdigi, through its SDPPI directorate. English is widely used in the film-services sector and strongly so in Bali, keeping rig planning clear for visiting shoots.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What vehicle rigs do you provide?
We supply Russian arms, pursuit arms, and complete chase car setups for car work. Our rigs accommodate many camera packages and give smooth, dynamic movement while shooting driving sequences.
Can you provide cable cam systems?
Yes, we give cable cam and wire cam systems for aerial coverage. These can span many distances and heights, giving smooth horizontal and vertical movement for sports, events, and film production.
What motion control options are available?
We give motion control systems including programmable heads and Bolt-style arms for precise, repeatable camera movements. These are key for VFX work, product shots, and complex choreographed sequences.
Do you build custom rigs?
Yes, our grip and rigging team can design and build custom mounting solutions for unique shot needs. From POV cameras to crash housings, we create solutions for shots that standard gear can't achieve.
Do you provide operators?
Yes, specialty rigs need skilled operators for safe, effective use. We give skilled technicians who know both the gear and the safety needs for specialty rigging work.
What about safety and insurance?
Safety is paramount with specialty rigs. We conduct thorough risk assessments, give appropriate safety gear, and make sure all rigging work meets Indonesian safety rules. Full insurance is ready.
