The Film Forum is proud to offer new camera and audio packages!
In the pursuit of supporting great artwork and great artists, the Film Forum has for a long time bridged the gap between the digital vs analog divide. To further that goal, we now offer an Aaton LTR Super 16mm camera and Canon EOS 60D DSLR camera among our rental equipment. The Aaton comes with a follow focus and Angenieux zoom lens, while the 60D package includes Canon's "L" series 24-105 zoom lens, 5" monitor and Beachtek audio mixer. We also have new audio recording equipment: a Sennheiser wireless lav mic package, and a Marantz handheld digital audio recorder.
We'll be offering regular certification classes for the Canon 60D soon. For the Aaton camera, contact Studio Director, Dave Hanagan, about scheduling a hands-on tutorial. Or feel free to contact Dave with any questions or to schedule a rental.
