When to Use a Jimmy Jib Lite?
The Jimmy Jib Lite is a lightweight crane, making it ideal for locations with limited space or when shooting from above a crowd.
The design is also discreet compared to larger cranes. The slim profile makes it less conspicuous. It is often used when recording sports and other live-recording situations, such as corporate events or red carpets.
The Jimmy Jib Lite also stands out for its easy-to-assemble design. You can quickly set this crane up on location and start shooting in minimal time. It also breaks down to a size of fewer than four feet, making it easier to transport and store.
The Jimmy Jib Lite is intended for situations where you do not need massive reach. While some jibs can extend over 20 feet, the Jimmy Jib Lite has a maximum length of 18 feet. The compact size allows you to use this crane almost anywhere, including many indoor locations.
The smaller design also allows for safe operation with a single camera operator. You can maintain a lean crew and easily assemble and disassemble the crane as needed.
Adding this crane to your setup could increase the variety of shots that you can create. For example, you may use the crane for overhead shots to reveal more of the stage or live setting, depending on the type of production.
The Jimmy Jib Lite allows you to reveal more of the surroundings in a scene, either before bringing the camera in on a subject or after pulling back from a closeup.
Tips for Choosing the Right Jimmy Jib Lite Camera Crane
The Jimmy Jib Lite comes in several lengths and is available with a variety of accessories. You should first determine the ideal length for the jib based on your production needs. The available lengths include 6 feet, 12 feet, and 18 feet. A 6-foot jib is useful for covering small areas, such as a studio or on location inside a building or home. If you have limited space but still want the freedom to move left and right quickly, the 6-foot option may be the ideal length.
A longer jib is useful for adding more height to your shot but pay attention to clearance when shooting indoors. The average ceiling is about 9 feet tall in residential spaces and 16 to 24 feet in commercial settings. Along with a jib, you may need other camera accessories to complete your project. At MTJIBS, we have a variety of equipment to ensure that you get the shots that you want. Allow us to help pair the Jimmy Jib Lite with the best accessories, including cameras, lenses, and gimbals.
No matter the setting, the Jimmy Jib Lite is a smart choice. It gives you the stability and height needed for composing your dream shot.
