Could someone take a simple single example and briefly explain of how to get the instrument to track the window as it travels? To me this is daunting without having the instrument on a loose pivot and using a long side-arm and an external rope, pulley, and a weight, to keep the focus on the window frame.</div><div> </div><div>27.07.2018, 13:41, "Bill Sapsis via Stagecraft" <<a href="mailto:stagecraft@theatrical.net">stagecraft@theatrical.net</a>>:</div><blockquote type="cite"><div link="blue" vlink="purple" lang="EN-US"><div><p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;">Yeah.

You can motorize it, but if you only need it to take 4 to 5 minutes, it's actually super easy to do with a manual system.</span></p></div><div><p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;"> </span></p></div><div><p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;">You can create hand crank travel system that can be geared to give you a smooth slow effect powered by a stage hand.
