ARRI has introduced the ARTEMIS 2 Live, a compact and lightweight camera stabiliser optimised for live productions such as sports and event broadcasts. Providing an accessible entry point into ARRI’s Camera Stabiliser Systems (CSS) range, the ARTEMIS 2 Live is modular and upgradeable, allowing users to adapt their rig to different production demands and career pathways while retaining the quality and dependability of ARRI engineering.
Designed for Live Productions
The culmination of years spent refining the ARTEMIS system, ARRI’s ARTEMIS 2 Live combines operational flexibility with ergonomic, minimalist design. An exceptionally short post gives users more legroom and greater freedom to follow the fast, unpredictable action of live productions, even in tight spaces. New lightweight monitor brackets have been specially designed for live applications, with the base mount and monitor jockeys accommodating 7-inch monitors from brands including TRANSVIDEO, Smart Systems, and SmallHD. A second bracket supports the 5-inch ‘on air’ monitor often used on live production rigs.
Ready-to-Shoot Sets
ARRI is offering the ARTEMIS 2 Live in several Ready-to-Shoot Sets, providing everything needed to integrate the stabiliser into live production environments. Among the options is an ability to easily and effectively combine ARTEMIS 2 Live with a Tiffen Volt gimbal. Its modular system structure allows ARTEMIS 2 Live to adapt to different power sources, making it simple to match available batteries and the camera used on the rig.
Commitment to Live Production
ARTEMIS 2 Live reflects ARRI’s commitment to the live production sector, further demonstrated by the earlier release of the ALEXA 35 Live – Multicam System. ARRI makes no qualitative distinction between live and cinema markets, so ARTEMIS 2 Live components are interchangeable with ARRI’s cine-style stabilisers and maintain the same uncompromising quality standards. EFP workflows are supported with features such as TALLY and LBUS, allowing hybrid lens control of both ENG and cine zoom lenses.
Upgradeable and Future-Ready
Users can upgrade their ARTEMIS 2 Live to a fully featured ARTEMIS 2 for film and drama productions, or even to a TRINITY 2, incorporating electronic stabilisation for high-end applications involving complex camera moves. Brackets and accessories are compatible across the entire CSS product range, enabling ARTEMIS 2 and TRINITY 2 owners to configure their rig for live applications using an ARTEMIS 2 Live Conversion Kit.
The ARTEMIS 2 Live is available to order.
