The keymaster p.o.v. helmet rig is a versatile camera platform intended to be worn by the camera operator or actor.

The helmet itself includes a variety of mounting points as well as a gold mount battery plate for power distribution. It can comfortably fit nearly any average sized head and comes complete with a full accessory kit of rods and brackets to mount almost any camera in any position you require.

The Anton Bauer gold mount plate at the rear of the helmet provides not only for camera and accessory power, but also for critical camera counterweight. This allows larger more complex rigs to hang off the front of the helmet and maintains the ability for fluid, natural movement by the operator.

Standard M6 Arri rosettes on either cheek act as convenient mounts to extend rods forward, but can also be utilized to attach hand grips if additional support from the operator's arms is desired.

The helmet's upper cheese-plate has a variety of uses: a flat surface for Velcroing your MDR, a bolt-through plate to attach a top-mounted camera, or an additional location to fasten a 2nd battery plate (using the integrated hole patterns).

The forward facing 15mm lightweight-standard top bracket matches up with your camera's baseplate/top-plate and can be used to easily position even Alexa Mini or Red DSMC bodies in front of the operator's p.o.v.

The Keymaster Helmet makes a great pair with our famous Proton Pack backpack rig for Sony Venice Rialto setups or simply off-boarding AKS for added weight reduction on the operator’s neck.
