The Hurlbut Visuals Moviemaker: Indie and Pro allows you to work with a system that is battle tested in the field, not on a trade show floor. Shane Hurlbut, ASC and his Elite Team have researched and accessorized the Canon 5D Mark II camera and turned it into a movie making machine!

It is a hybrid with everything you need to shoot an indie project or a larger budget film in a few pelican cases. The kit comes preloaded with: cameras, lenses, cards, picture styles, custom rigs, remote follow focus, and a lighting monitor. Shane Hurlbut, ASC and the Elite Team developed this system over 8 months of shooting the Untitled Navy SEAL Project; the first studio released picture in this format.

The Hurlbut Visuals Moviemaker: Indie

This is specifically designed for the still photographer who wants to move into motion with a camera platform that is familiar. It addresses all of the mounting, focus, lighting, and rigging issues that have frustrated you in the past and puts the creative power in your hands.
