Mechanical & Electronic Effects – Proficiency

From small turntable rigs to 60ft long motion bases, Neil Corbould Special Effects Ltd can cater for your every need. We design most of our rigs on CAD which saves money as we can see the rigs working before any money is spent, and the director can also see the rigs before they are built and make any changes that might need to be made.
Hydraulics, pneumatics, servo motors, computer controlled systems, wire operated, we select what we feel is best suited for each job.
From the cad drawings, 3D animation can be produced to give the director an even more in-depth view of our rigs.
We are also well known for our special prop making. We have made special props for movies like, The Fifth Element, Entrapment, Vertical limit, to name but a few, from very intricate props to large futuristic cars we can guarantee the finest workmanship available anywhere in the world.

Animatronics is also a field that we exceed in from delicate movement from silicone dummies in movies like Saving Private Ryan and Beyond Borders, the Animatronic rooster created for Cold Moutain to full on Animatronic dummies for Gladiator, Black Hawk Down and The Kingdom Of Heaven yet to be released
