AXIS FILMS - 3D
When it comes to 3D, we have three aims. To be at the forefront. To be best. And to make your 3D production a success.
3D hire experts Axis Films have already completed many high-profile 3D projects. These include Sky’s 3D ‘24’ promo, Reebok’s 3D Amir Khan promo and the live 3D Rugby Union Calcutta Cup match – the world's first live 3D sports broadcast.
On Sight and Axis Film have also conducted extensive 3D testing and R&D – all so that we can ensure your 3D production is perfect, from shoot to screen.
Get your 3D camera and rigs from Axis Films. Hire your 3D editing system from HD Hire. And take advantage of the full range of 3D lab services offered by HD Lab.
3D may be a new media, but we’re old hands.

| Bolt rig | This is the smaller of the parallel rigs, still very rigid in design but much smaller and more suited to smaller cameras like the SI-2K or Iconix. This non-motorised passive rig still has all of the alignment tools but is small enough to be fitted to a SteadyCam, used hand-held or mounted in tight spaces such as cars or lifts where the size of the Calcutta or Mirror rig would be restrictive. |
|---|
| Calcutta I | Similar to the Calcutta II (below) but without roll alignment and the need to lock-off after adjustments. |
|---|
| Calcutta II | This is our larger of our parallel (side by side) rigs, capable of taking any size of cameras and lenses. The unit is very rigid and carries the full range of very subtle alignment tools: interaxial, convergance, horizontal and roll adjustments. This is a non-motorised passive rig, which can be adjusted and locked off for each set-up. |
|---|
| Hines 'Stereocam' mirror rig | Large scale, fully motorised mirror rig (beam-splitter). This rig will take any size of camera and lens with the full range of alignment tools, convergence, interaxial, horizontal and roll. This has the added advantage of being motorisable, allowing 'active' adjustment of the alignments during the shot. This is essential for some drama shooting where there are liable to be more sophisticated shot requirements. The unit can be used as a passive rig without the motors. Please note that this can only be hired to operators experienced in it's characteristics and operation. |
|---|
| Lightweight folding 3D rig | A parallel rig developed by Inition for use with lightweight DV/HDV cameras. It is less rigid than other parallel rigs, with less accurate adjustments. It can be useful for lock-off shots and testing at reduced costs. |
|---|
| P+S Techniks Mirror rig | We have the larger of the P+S rigs, capable of taking any size of camera and lens. Our rig has been rigidised to eliminate any play between the two mounted cameras, which can be an isssue (especially with larger bodies and lenses) and had extra alignment tools added. Axis Film's P+S Techniks Mirror rig now has a full range of camera alignment tools, including interaxial, convergence, horizontal alignment and roll alignment. We have found that no two cameras are identical and these adjustments are very useful. This unit can be motorised if required. |
|---|
| Polecam / Motorbike / Car rigs | We have also developed prototype single plates rigs for specific shoots such as motorbike rigs and polecam. These are primarily designed and adapted on a job to job basis but please call us on 020 7637 0888 for more information. |
