​I operate a motion control cinematography studio catering specifically to natural history film production and biological research projects.  This 6 axis motorized system is constructed from industrial grade components and controlled using a combination of proprietary computer code and open source software.  The flexible design can be configure for just about any macro studio application that can be imagined.

"Will's motion control system is allowing us to make exciting discoveries in salamander biomechanics and could be applied to  a broad range of scientific imaging and animal research purposes.  As the operator can simultaneously rotate a stage, move the camera in any direction and adjust focus, we are able to respond to the movements of live vertebrates and reliably capture images that were previously impossible via conventional methods."
