Motor-Drive Pan, Tilt and Rotation Devices for a Motion-Picture Camera
Wally Gentleman · Journal of the SMPTE · 1965
The adaptation of a conventional motion-picture camera geared head for an ultraslow pan-and-tilt movement for time-lapse cloud photography is discussed. This assembly enables scenes to be filmed with a camera action that creates a sense of further dimension in time-lapse sequences. An apparatus designed at the National Film Board of Canada to create an apparent additional dimension in model photography by rotation of the entire camera also is described.
