The Jimmy Jib is a one man operated camera crane with a remote head which is controlled from the ground.

Jimmy jibs are widely used in television production and can equally be found in a studio game show, drama set or on location anywhere in the world. The Jib is mounted on a rolling tripod base and is assembled in modular sections so that its height and reach can be varied to suit the job. Most are owner operated which is a good thing because they are not easy to use unless you are asking for the most basic moves. A good Jimmy Jib operator can perform outstanding camera moves with precision and really add value to a production whilst not costing the earth. And, should you need it, a great feature of the Jimmy Jib is its ability to spin the camera through up to 600 degrees of rotation.
