NSI Wraps Up Busiest Year Ever


NSI is happy to announce that 2007 was the busiest year in the history of the company. Record rental days were realized for our gyrostabilized equipment on the feature films: “Batman 3 –The Dark Night” (in IMAX format); “The Incredible Hulk”; “The Golden Compass”; and “Death Race.”

Victoria's Secret and the Nettmann Mini-C excite millions


Last month at the Kodak theater in Hollywood, the Mini-C, gyrostabilized camera mount and the RTS track system flawlessly shot the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.

The Mini-C and the RTS track system gave director Hamish Hamilton that unique tracking camera angle that has been his favorite shot for the last three years of production.

The camera was able track the models, move smoothly along the Runway and quickly reposition itself for the next entrance.

Super-G and The Golden Compass


Earlier this year Nettmann's Super-G Gyrostabilized Aerial Camera System shot the opening credits and other FX laden shots for the movie The Golden Compass, with D.P.Henry Braham. The Super-G paired with Panavision's Genesis digital camera performed flawlessly while flying at 12,500ft above the Eiger and Jungfrau peaks of Switzerland. The Super-G was suspended from the belly of the helicopter, piloted by Fred North, so the camera could fly between the crevices. Nettmann Systems would like to wish New Line Cinema good luck on this opening weekend.
