The Development of a Location Production Unit Using Lightweight Electronic Cameras

Ian Leiper, Roy Vitty, Alan Woolford

The use of electronic rather than film production methods on location can lead to more economical operation, as well as easing the problem of matching location shots with studio material. This paper describes the layout and equipment of a vehicle designed to exploit these advantages for location drama work and discusses operational experience. Complete drama productions have so far formed the major part of its use, rather than the location inserts for studio productions for which it was originally proposed.
