[55 x 13.25 x 5"] This tool adds so much value to your productions! Whether you use the One Man Crew Director for interview set ups or for b roll capture, this device will give your clients that something special they seem to want on every shoot! We typically have used the One Man Crew for interviews but have found it is awesome for certain kinds of b roll, timelapse, and product shooting. The added ability to control via your smartphone app is a bonus! You really don't relize how versatile it is until you use and see how many places it can rest while shooting. Tripods, tables, floor, light stands, c stands and our personal favorite the keyboard stand! Buy this now!

[55 x 13.25 x 5"] I don't have the director edition (bluetooth controllable version), just the original. I just set it up and let it do its thing. At the slowest speed, watching it live, many people can't tell that there's movement. But it adds a dynamic shot even when used back and forth over entire shot.


My personal OMC has been rented out to crews that covered the Olympics for an entire week. They said it worked like a champ for hours of coverage every day.



Super easy to set up and use. Does what it says. And its quiet enough for production use with proper microphones and technique.

[55 x 13.25 x 5"] Took 5 minutes to set-up and shot my best interview yet. Bought the D-tap, when running on battery motor will hum lightly. Everything else is a breeze to use. Tilt head was defective, emailed company responded immediately with RMA and sent a replacement head before sending my defective one in.

[26 lb] Others have called the One Man Crew (OMC) a game-changer, and it is. it's an unmanned slider that keeps the subject perfectly framed and in focus the entire time. UNMANNED. Set it and forget it. Let it do its thing, and if you want have another camera shooting another angle... use it for precise slider shots, wide, medium, or tight... repeatable moves. There is so much you can do with it. I used it to capture a world-renowned wind instrument performer for a music video. Shot four different angles very quickly in four perfect takes, different shot sizes, keeping him perfectly in frame, and I shot the video completely by myself-- literally a one man crew. Took about 30 minutes to shoot the entire video. Some users report some detectable motor or belt noise, but that was on the earliest version some years ago and has been redesigned and improved in its current iteration as the OMC Director. It is not completely silent (no motorized system is) but I have found my OMC Director to be usable in quiet environments such as interviews. Redrock Micro is super-attentive to the real-world needs of filmmakers. They are a nimble company who quickly adjusts to evolving customer needs and are legendary for innovative, cutting-edge products that are incredible bang-for-the-buck. And they stand behind them. If you have a rare problem with a product, contact them (they're findable on the web.) I say this based on a over a decade of using many of their tools which have greatly enhanced my work as a cinematographer and filmmaker. If you're using a slider and want to save money not hiring additional crew to operate it-- and want perfectly framed slider shots every time-- the OMC Director is the tool for the job.

[55 x 13.25 x 5"] We've only been using it for a week but I love it. Adds a nice easy production touch to our interviews and down and dirty Youtube videos clips. Some folks talked about how noisy it was but I don't hear that. Great tool if you are creating content without alot of budget!

[26 lb] The One Man Crew Director has changed the way I work on solo shoots. Its low profile body, and streamlined interface, makes it super easy to setup/dial in settings.

Its an overall quiet unit, comes with a sweet carrying case, two different power options, and an online user guide.
 
And a shout out to the folks at Redrock who were very helpful, and quick to respond to my questions.

[55 x 13.25 x 5"] Redrock Micro has had a huge impact on indie filmmakers/producers by continually putting out incredibly useful and well priced tools for the community. The One Man Crew slider is by far one of the most useful tools I use on my commercial and corporate productions. Having the camera move back and forth automatically, along a curved parabolic track ensures that you have smooth, cinematic, and repeatable slider moves that stay in focus! The app that you can download from the iTunes store really improves the usability of the slider. You can change the speed and direction, set end marks, etc all with a tap/swipe of the iPhone screen. The app feels very well thought out and intuitive and is a must download for all OMC owners. The app truly is what makes you a one man crew. I love the OMC especially because it is super easy to set up. I use a 75mm bowl adapter in the middle of the slider, which is enough to ensure smooth back and forth moves without slippage for the cameras I use. ( C100, A7s, GH4, 5DIII). I can probably have the slider up and running in literally 5 minutes. The lasers on the rig help you set the proper distance of your subjects so that they stay in focus, although this is not as critical when you're shooting with a wide angle lens. I've looked at the other alternatives from Kessler, but what sets the OMC crew apart is how fast and easy it is to set up. You literally pull it out of the case, screw on the tripod adapter, mount the camera, plug it in, and you're rocking and rolling. Sometimes I don't have time to build a motorized slider rig, especially when I'm on a job by myself. If you're looking to add one piece of gear to your kit that will increase production value and pay dividends with clients, I would highly recommend you pick up a OMC setup.

[26 lb] The OMC has dramatically improved the quality of my productions. Tabletop dollies are useful but most of the time require a lot of setup if they are motorized. The OMC is specifically designed to speed up workflow on set and provide higher quality results and performance than it's competitors. The only problem I have with it is it seems quite big. But other than that it's excellent.

[55 x 13.25 x 5"] We are a small production company that does a lot of doc style web and commercial content. For years we have been looking at options that give us movement in interviews and talking head shots. We were introduced to the OMC at a local store product showcase and were pretty much sold on the spot for the OMC. Having worked with it for awhile now, it's become an essential piece of our kit and we use it not only for interview movement, but for product shots as well. It's simple, easy to setup and works every time. There have been complaints of the noise coming from the motor, but we find it only happens at high speed. Perfect hardware for anyone who does a lot of interview shooting.

[26 lb] I love the one man crew. I can make beautiful time lapse videos and it's a life saver on set!!!
