Brooklyn-based MYT Works highlighted the versatility of their camera support systems, both for static and motion positions. On display were their full range of nodal pan-tilt heads, as well as sliders and skater dollies. Glide Sliders are available in three sizes, supporting anything from a small DSLR to a full broadcast camera rig. The unique bearing design ensures a smooth move every time, and removable high-hats allow for fast setups and efficient re-configuring of dolly systems. Skater Dollies come in full kits with Mitchell, 100mm, and 75mm bowl adapters, and stand mounts for the track ends. The Skater systems interface with standard speed rail for custom runs of track as long as the shot requires – MYT’s internal splicer keeps the pipes together with no disruption to the camera’s smooth movement. MYT highlighted a new use of their dolly system, with a camera test pattern system rigged to the ceiling of their booth, which could be positioned anywhere down the track for camera calibration at different focal lengths.
