On the water.
Most production boats put your DIT in the sun, on a folding chair, with a laptop. We don't. The Basilisk's dark room is a fully climate-controlled blackout suite engineered for color-critical work at sea — so your colorist, DIT, and VTR op work in the same conditions they'd have in a post house.

The MPV Advantage
Multipurpose Production Vehicles, Built to Sync.
Our Chameleon (MPV — Multipurpose Production Vehicle) designs and ecosystem are without parallel. Every vehicle in the fleet — boat, mobile command trailer, drones, submersibles — is interconnected and in sync. The result: total fleet awareness, real-time remote communications, and live multichannel video and audio transmissions across every asset on your shoot.
