Staying Safe On Set with VENICE and VENICE 2 Remote Operation Cinematography
A guide to how technology can support social distancing for film and TV production.
Our intention with this content is to help inform conversations between the production company, the rental house and crew. We believe the latest tried and tested production technology can help talent, operators and all production workers create the space they need from each other to stay safe and well on set. Much of this technology has been available and in use prior to the Covid-19 pandemic but with careful planning and preparation takes on a new purpose and relevance.
The technology for remote operation is designed to enhance production flexibility with adaptable configurations and speed of set-ups once on set. Also, while primarily focused on Sony’s VENICE digital cinematography cameras, many of these technologies apply equally well to other cameras and camcorders.
