“We are excited to return to BSC Expo. This year we want to highlight the mobility of our products and how versatile they can be in a plethora of environments,” comments Sebastian Leske, Head of Cinema Business Development. “We know sometimes getting the perfect shots can be logistically difficult. At Sony we keep this in mind when developing products such as the VENICE Extension System, BURANO, FX9, FX6 and FX3. As we want to keep the focus on allowing filmmakers to tell their story freely and creatively, whilst eliminate the hassle of transporting equipment.”
