Motion control turns on repeatability: the same camera path running take after take to the frame, which is what makes pre-programmed VFX plates, motion blur control on tabletop, and multi-pass beauty composites possible. Multi-axis robotic arms like the EVO carry a defined payload (11 lb on EVO, 10 lb on Ronin RS) and run a programmed move at known speed and acceleration. Linear travel from a motorized slider (17 inch on the Shark Nano II) and a 2-axis motorized jib arm length (5.5 ft on the JibPLUS) cover the moves between handheld and full robotic.

EVO, Ronin gimbals, sliders, and jibs are in-house at 777 The Queensway. What's bookable in the calendar is on the shelf, not waiting on a sub-rent confirmation.
Real-time online booking
No phone tag, no quote-and-wait. Pricing is transparent and confirmation lands the moment you book the gimbal, slider, or jib.
Cinema-tested, production-ready
Every motion control rig is calibrated and balanced before pickup. Gimbal motors are tested, slider belts checked for tension, EVO programming validated. Trusted by tabletop, product, beauty, automotive, music video, and narrative crews running repeatable VFX plate work across the GTA.
EVO operator included, sliders self-serve
The EVO cinema robot ships with a trained operator who programs your move on set. Gimbals, sliders, and the JibPLUS are self-serve so the day rate stays accessible. One booking, one point of contact, on-call before and during the shoot.

Common questions
Does the EVO Cinema Robot include an operator and what is the day rate?
Yes. The Motorized Precision EVO ships at $2,500/day with a trained operator included in the rate. The operator handles programming, calibration, and run-of-show on set so the first take of the day is the right one. COI is required on EVO bookings. Front Row Insurance covers short-term cinema gear coverage if you don't have a production-company COI on file.
Should I rent the DJI RS 3 Pro or the RS 4 Pro for my shoot?
Both carry a 10 lb payload and run native E-mount and EF cinema bodies. RS 3 Pro at $130/day covers the standard handheld day with ActiveTrack and wireless transmitter compatibility. RS 4 Pro at $145/day adds LiDAR-ready autofocus, ActiveTrack Pro, and second-generation vertical shooting, which earns its keep on follow shots, fashion, and product work where focus precision drives the take.
What payload do the gimbals and slider support?
DJI RS 3 Pro and RS 4 Pro both carry 10 lb, which covers RED Komodo-X, Sony FX3, A7-series, and most cinema lens combinations. The iFootage Shark Nano II runs 15 lb horizontal on its 17 inch motorized track. The EVO Cinema Robot carries 11 lb on a 3 ft reach at 6.5 ft per second. Email shoot specs to [email protected] for a payload check before booking.
Can I program a repeatable move for VFX plates?
Yes. The EVO Cinema Robot is built for pre-programmed repeatable moves and runs the same path to the frame on every take, which is what makes VFX plate work, motion blur control, and multi-pass beauty composites possible. Day rate includes the operator who programs the move with you on set. The Shark Nano II handles touchscreen keyframe slider moves for simpler repeatable passes.
How long does the slider and jib take to set up on location?
Plan on roughly 15 minutes for the iFootage Shark Nano II slider on sticks (track, motor, head, balance) and 20 to 30 minutes for the Edelkrone JibPLUS depending on counterweight and camera package. Both are self-serve rentals. The EVO ships with its operator and Mitchell Mount tripod and runs on a standard 110V household outlet, so no generator is required.
Do you deliver motion control gear across the GTA?
Yes. Pickup at 777 The Queensway or GTA delivery is available. The EVO Cinema Robot books with operator and travel built into the package. Gimbals, sliders, and jibs can be added to any van delivery across Toronto, Mississauga, Vaughan, Markham, and the wider GTA. You will get a delivery quote at the booking step based on your shoot location.
