During filming of the blockbuster Clash of the Titans, the eclipse was used to capture stable images, traveling at speeds of up to 70kts, while attached to a Long Line.
"I finally had the opportunity to really work the eclipse, absolutely amazing. I had the Genesis with the 11-1 and with Fred North flying, could not have gone better. The system is crazy good. Hanging out at 275mm wrapping around actors in gantries 150ft high...just awesome."
Larry Blanford, 2nd Unit Director of Photography, The A-Team
