About the Jib
A Jimmy Jib is a versatile camera crane that comes in a variety of sizes between 6” and 40”. It can be used to add great production value at a reasonable cost. The crane produces dynamic and smooth movement. It is also easy and quick to reposition, making it possible to cover a large variety of shots in a short space of time. We supply different options of bases for the crane: a studio ped facilitating smooth tracking shots and quick repos, as well as bigger bases for outside allowing larger cranes to be used. We can also supply track for more dynamic moves in a non-studio environment. The Jimmy Jib comes in small boxes allowing the crane to be built in tight spots and is operated by a two person crew.
