Welcome to Pacific Motion Control. Our innovative line of gear is all manufactured by Mike Sorenson and Al Miller, two of the most important developers of motion control technology. The two share a Technical Acheivement Oscar for their design of the live-action motion control Zebra dolly.

Our rental inventory also includes the Graphlite, Gazelle, Speed Bogie, 5 motion control remote heads, and the newest version of the Digital Repeatable Aerohead. All of our equipment has be designed with portability, reliability, and versatility in mind. Owner Craig Shumard has over nine years of set and manufacturing experience. In addition to a staff of veteran Kuper operators, we have the ability to make almost any shot possible. With the help of Bill Tondreau at Kuper Controls, a number of visual effects supervisors, and several digital post production houses, we continue to be at the forefront in our field.

Pacific Motion Control is able to assist its clients in all phases of production-from pre-production, meetings, scouts, to the transportation of the equipment. Since the industry is now a worldwide business, we have adjusted our billing for travel days of the gear to offset your overall cost. The pricing structure has been lowered across the board to help in the ever-shrinking budgets that we all face. Our continued goal is to support production in all aspects while adding to the overall quality and efficiency of your production needs.
