Marbl Orbit is a new ceiling-mounted orbiting camera robot arm that features a silent motor capable of speeds from 1/60 RPM to 10 RPM, adjustable arms, and a center LED ring light. Designed by Josh Yeo from MAKE. ART. NOW., the Marbl Orbit is now available on Kickstarter starting at $799. Josh Yeo is a filmmaker from Los Angeles who runs the Youtube channel called MAKE. ART. NOW. His videos are quite interesting – we already covered his short film Anamorphia back in 2020 in a short interview. Make sure to check the interview in case you missed it.
