WHY STUNTCAMERACREW
Our Vision and Motivation
At Stunt Camera Crew, our passion for filmmaking stems from our roots as performance artists. As former athletes, we used cameras to showcase our alternative movements across the environments we explored, which would often lead to viral-like content given the uniqueness of what we accomplished, seeking creative ways to capture dynamic action. This fueled our deep understanding of how to frame motion authentically. On set, we often faced challenges with traditional equipment and operators less familiar with our unique movements, which sometimes missed critical moments, causing unnecessary resets. These experiences drive our mission to bridge that gap, resulting in a more grounded outcome, positioning cameras with the foresight we possess to highlight action we know intimately from the most compelling angles.
We’re passionate about filmmaking because it lets us translate our expertise in movement and body mechanics into cinematic art in the pursuit of unseen perspectives. It’s this passion that drives us to innovate. Recognizing standard gear limitations, we believe we are leading a new wave of action cinematographers. By developing custom equipment and refining techniques as a daily practice, we are leading to break free from filmmaking constraints that hinder the operator’s freedom of movement. This enables us to deliver immersive, fluid cinematic experiences that captivate audiences and vividly realize each production’s creative vision.
A new era of action cinematography is here.

HOW WE DO WHAT WE DO
Our Methodology & Process
At Stunt Camera Crew (SCC), we redefine action cinematography by capturing high-intensity sequences with precision, creativity, and efficiency. Our team, blending elite movement specialists, action cinematographers, and technical innovators, draws on over 20 years of movement experience and 15+ years behind the camera. Rooted in parkour, rollerblading, ice skating, martial arts, and aerial cinematography, we collaborate seamlessly with industry-leading creators.
Our approach merges athletic expertise with technical mastery. As former stunt performers, we understand dynamic movement nuances and set expectations, leveraging body mechanics to position cameras with sniper-like precision for flawless execution. Like stunt coordinators, our stunt department ties ensure we prioritize on-set health and safety, guaranteeing safe, effective shots.
Our process starts with meticulous previsual planning informed by extensive set experience, streamlining production workflows. This step-by-step method identifies optimal angles and creative possibilities, even under tight deadlines. Like parkour athletes navigating obstacles through disciplined practice, our rehearsed routines eliminate issues, enabling us to execute complex sequences—whether in tight spaces, tracking high-speed chases, or capturing intricate transitions.
By innovating techniques and developing custom gear to overcome conventional filmmaking constraints, our movement-driven approach transforms raw action into compelling, immersive narratives. At SCC, our unique blend of athleticism and cinematographic expertise delivers groundbreaking results, setting a new standard in action cinematography.
PARKOUR GIMBAL OPERATOR & MOVEMENT SPECIALIST
Athleticism Behind the Lens.
At Stunt Camera Crew, our Parkour background directly influences how we approach every project. As athletes, we leverage our deep understanding of movement, agility, and spatial awareness to anticipate and adapt to the action as it unfolds. This ability allows us to position ourselves optimally, capturing shots that are both dynamic and authentic to the scene. Our expertise in navigating complex environments ensures seamless, efficient camera work that enhances the flow of production while maintaining visual impact.
At SCC, we offer a movement-driven approach that replicates traditional cinematic techniques with greater efficiency and adaptability. We’re not replacing conventional methods but highlighting a unique sweet spot in the filmmaking process, where creativity can truly flourish. Utilizing our Custom Gimbal solutions, we combine traditional camera payload capacity with our athleticism, ensuring high-energy shots that captivate and engage the audience in a compelling and new way.
“We don’t just capture action—we move with it, ensuring each shot is immersive, dynamic, and well controlled.”
WHAT WE OFFER
A New Approach To Action Cinematography & Unique Solutions
At Stunt Camera Crew, our dedication to pre-visualization and creative excellence infuses every stage of production planning. Drawing inspiration from the fluidity of parkour, we transform each sequence—from early location scouts and collaborative creative discussions with directors to precise, on-site action design—ensuring that the final production not only meets but exceeds the intended artistic vision. This method represents a critical step in action design, carrying the same specialized respect typically found on major movie sets with dedicated previs teams.
Seasoned stunt professionals understand that the magic of iconic action sequences—exemplified by Movie star Legend Jackie Chan—is built on the foundation of meticulous orchestration and precise preparation. While audiences may simply marvel at the finished spectacle, it is this careful, behind-the-scenes planning that truly makes the difference in creating unforgettable cinematic moments.
Consultancy & Previsualization
We offer live previs and action design consultations, working hand-in-hand with directors to shape the creative vision. This process encompasses a 3D environment scan and real-time sequencing—leveraging advanced gaming dynamics to digitally replicate locations and explore creative pathways before filming—choreography and camera movement refinement, where performer actions are collaboratively aligned with precise camera positioning through live session discussions, and optimized workflows that minimize on-set unpredictability and reshoots.
Equipment and Alternative Methods
Traditional tools such as technocranes, bolt arms, and dollies offer controlled cinematography yet often limit agility and creative flexibility. While our movement-driven approach does not exactly replicate these systems, it provides a valuable, in-between alternative that works side by side with conventional methods. By combining parkour athleticism and rollerblading with custom-engineered gimbal systems for high-speed tracking through complex environments, we unlock fluidity and rapid adaptability. This method enables smooth transitions from technocrane to handheld operation for example in both confined and multi-level settings and achieves cinematic precision in half the setup time—moving with the action, not just around it.
On-Set Execution & Integration
Our integrated approach ensures that on-set execution aligns seamlessly with pre-planned sequences. Through dedicated consultation, innovative design, and dynamic camera work, we enhance storytelling, streamline production workflows by leveraging our three-in-one operators—skilled in parkour, rollerblading, and FPV drone piloting—and empower productions with the confidence needed to capture complex, immersive shots. By uniting creative foresight, athletic dynamism, Stunt Camera Crew redefines whats possible behind the camera.
“ Equip For Versatility – Efficiency is key—by quick adaptation, we offer a steamline and smoother workflow saving valuable time on set.”
EVERYTHING OPERATOR
Our operators bring a distinct advantage with their diverse skill sets across multiple platforms, including Rollerblading, Parkour, Iceskating, FPV drone piloting, Previs/Choreography, Stunt Performers and much more. By utilizing our operators who are proficient in three or more of these disciplines, productions can streamline cost effective workflows.
EFFICIENT WORKFLOW
Our approach to cinematography is built on efficiency. In Parkour, the goal is to move fluidly and effectively from point A to point B while maintaining a control posture throughout. We bring that same mindset from the streets to the film set. With 20+ years of experience.
PRODUCTION ADAPTABILITY
By actively rehearsing Previsual workflows in and outside of production, we continue to improve our ability to adapt to shifting scenarios whilst opening up the space to new and creative ways to get the shot. We move with accurate calculation which allowing us to work more effectively in fast-paced and demanding enviroements.
“Let’s push the boundaries of action cinematography together.”
