Vehicle Mounting

Here is the layout. Car mounting in Colombia runs through Imagen Latina's camera-car fleet and the low-loader trailers that service automotive, action and feature shoots out of Bogotá and Medellín, with specialty-rig support from Cinetech Bogotá, 5.1 Cine, LaBu Films and Reel Films. Our crews build picture-car setups around Toyota Hilux and Land Cruiser 4x4 work trucks, Mercedes Sprinter process cars and the Russian Arm, ULTRA-Arm, Edge Arm and Black Arm 24' telescoping crane sites used across Latin distribution commercial work and Netflix Latam first drama.

Here is how the picture comes together. Pana-Process and Pana-Glide stabilised car mounts let the camera live on the bumper, hood or roof of the hero car while the tracking car drives alongside on closed Bogotá freeway sections or Medellín's Aburrá Valley curving mountain roads — a long-favoured Colombian car-filming corridor for its tight switchbacks, dramatic ridge sightlines and proximity to El Poblado production hubs. Suction-cup rigs, magnetic mounts, hostess trays, low-mode brackets and bolt-on door rigs round out the kit so directors can mix interior dialogue passes with exterior driving plates inside the same setup day.

Here is what we have to work with. Permitting and safety drive the scheduling. Aerocivil clears any drone-tracking work flying alongside the picture car, the ANE sets up wireless follow-focus and video-village frequencies, and DIAN ATA carnet forms handles imported specialty rigs flown in from Mexico City, Los Angeles or São Paulo for headline campaigns.

Here is the layout. Cartagena's UNESCO Walled City applies strict heritage protocols on car access through Centro and Getsemaní, with Plaza de los Coches and Plaza Santo Domingo needing permits filed weeks in advance and curfew windows that constrain shooting hours. Our team sets up with the IPCC heritage office and Policía de Turismo. Bogotá altitude at 2,640 metres derates power packs output and battery runtime, so our gaffer and grip departments size power for high-load Russian Arm runs to match.

Here is how the work shapes up. ARL workplace insurance covers each operator, grip, precision driver and stunt coordinator on the call sheet under Colombian Riesgos Laborales rules, and stunt sequences integrate ACE Colombia precision-driving talent with the global stunt coordinators arriving via the 35% CINA tax credit and 40% Film Law incentive pipelines administered by Proimágenes Colombia.
