– Welcome to the Machine –  

Our Sonoma California stage is a self-contained visual production studio, offering video, still photography, stop motion, & motion control services.

The foundation of the studio is the GNU (said “new”) or simply #4.

This is the last custom build motion control crane fabricated at ILM. Since then, the rig has morphed into a KUPER-DRAGONFRAME high-speed, live action, stop motion MACHINE – With up to 90′ of track. The crane is transportable ~ a Military Generator powers the unit on remote locations.

This is our studio.

Our coved stage includes full DMX voltage stabilized lighting & a complete grip & lighting package. 

An on-site machine and wood shop provides 3D printing, welding, laser & waterjet cutting services.

The post production suite features Adobe, DaVinci, and Maya pipelines, & includes a lounge for music production / recording.

Rental packages are available for motion control rigs, drivers, movers, & turntables.
