Vehicle Mounting

Here is how this works in practice. We deliver car mounting as a pro rigging service, crewed from our Belgrade base with technicians skilled in safely fixing cameras to moving cars. Our team fits hard mounts, suction-cup rigs, hostess trays, door and bonnet mounts, and full process trailers to picture cars, matching the rig to the shot the DP needs. We calculate load, vibration and the safe envelope for each mount, and we plan camera positions so the rig stays clear of the action and out of frame in reverse angles.

Here is the short of it. For interior dialogue scenes we rig low-vibration mounts and process trailers that let actors perform without driving. For exterior coverage we mount cameras for tracking, side and pursuit shots. We set up car mounting with the camera-car, gimbal and aerial units so an automotive sequence cuts together cleanly, and we run safety checks before each move. Mounts, rigs and process trailers come through our Belgrade base, with pro hardware supplemented from the wider region for major shoots.

Here is the breakdown. Serbia gives car-mount shoots a strong range of driving environments within reach of the capital. Belgrade gives dense city streets, the bridges over the Sava and Danube and the broad boulevards of New Belgrade, and the city doubles convincingly for other European capitals. Beyond it, the highways of Vojvodina, the winding mountain roads of Tara. Zlatibor and Kopaonik and quiet rural routes give variety for tracking and travelling shots. Driving is on the right. This our riggers account for when planning mount positions and pursuit coverage.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. The temperate inland climate brings four distinct seasons, so a sequence can be planned for dry summer roads or winter conditions. Our coordinators handle road permits, traffic running and police escort where street rigging needs it. ATA carnets cover short-term import of pro mounting hardware a production brings. English is widely spoken across the local crew base. The cash rebates through the Film in Serbia programme of the Serbia Film Commission keeps a fully rigged car unit cost-good.
