Porsche automotive shoot with the Cinefade RotaPola

Polarisers are essential on any automotive shoot, allowing the Director of Photography to control reflections on the bodywork and windshield of the ‘hero car’. Automotive productions often use a crane, Russian Arm, Technodolly or car rig to stabilise and move the camera, making the camera inaccessible to the crew. Wireless control of the camera and its accessories is therefore essential and the Cinefade Motorised Polariser enables filmmakers to remotely control a polariser via the cmotion cPro lens control system.

Motorised Polariser for Bentley automotive commercial

Our Motorised Polariser can be used independently as a RotaPola that is automatically calibrated, allows users to set marks and can be controlled remotely, which sets it apart from similar products such as the Tiffen Multi Rota Tray or ARRI’s Rota Pola frame.

Variable ND filter for film

The cmotion Cinefade VariND is made up of a Motorised Polariser and a Static Polariser which when combined can be used as a motorised variable ND filter that is remotely controlled by a cPRO lens control system to allow for precise and fast exposure changes when the camera is inaccessible or when the creative brief calls for an exact T-stop to maintain a consistent depth-of-field, even in changing lighting conditions.
