Wire Cam Systems

Wire cam systems in Italy run through Cinecam Italy and Action Group. These two operators hold permanent and tour-ready Spidercam-class rigs that serve Serie A multi-cam coverage, RAI and Sky Italia live broadcast, and the major concert venues. Fixed and semi-permanent rigs cover San Siro in Milan, the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, the Allianz Stadium in Turin, and the Maradona in Naples for football. They also keep a steady presence inside the Mediolanum Forum and the PalaLottomatica arenas for music tours and ATP indoor tennis.

Single-line and three-dimensional multi-point cable systems carry broadcast and cinema cameras on stabilised gimbal heads. Remote pan, tilt, focus, and zoom feed straight into the live programme switcher. Spidercam-class rigs hold speeds above thirty kilometres per hour while footage stays stable, which suits Coppa Italia final coverage and the staging of arena tours.

Each fitting starts with a venue survey. The survey maps anchor points, span geometry, audience-zone needs, and the FIGC or UEFA broadcast specs that apply to the fixture. Certified riggers then build the system with backup cables, auto tension tracking, and fail-safe braking. INAIL safety inspections and the local Vigili del Fuoco fire-marshal sign-off come before each live show, and a full rehearsal runs ahead of broadcast. Outdoor festival jobs—Battiti Live in Bari, Heineken Jammin', the Verona Arena summer programme, and the Sanremo Festival open-air segments—stretch the operating envelope, with weather tracking built in so wind limits hold throughout. Italian Cinema Plan tax-credit records log wire-cam day rates within qualifying spend, and CCNL Cinema Audiovisivo crew terms apply across the production.
