Motion Platforms in the Film Industry

Production Concept GmbH is a production service provider for national and international film and series producers, drawing on more than 25 years of experience. The core areas of their services are Stunt & SFX, LED Wall, Backplates & Camera and Green Consulting (sustainability advice for productions). The company is a competent and effective partner for complex production requirements.

For stunt work and other demanding scenes involving land vehicles and aircraft, Production Concept uses the 6DOF motion system. The electric motion platform with a load capacity of up to 2500 kg allows heavy cockpits and cabins to be installed. Applications range from motion and stabilization simulation to driving simulation for vehicles of all kinds.

The company designs and constructs suitable special structures for unique film sequences. The many years of experience of their stunt crew is based on extensive knowledge for the creative execution of mechanical and physical effects, which enables the design of unique and innovative action sequences.

For driving scenes with actors, the crew builds a customized vehicle that carries a driver’s cockpit, usually mounted on the roof. While the vehicle is equipped with cameras and the actors experience live action, it is constantly moved by a motion platform.
