Hello all! Long time reader, first time poster.
We have a production coming up in a few months where we will need to fly a couple of clouds side to side as well as up and down. I've been involved on the flyrail in a production where we've had this effect before, but I was not part of the install and I'm drawing a little bit of a blank as to how it's accomplished.
We have a large-ish single purchase fly house and access to traveller track. I thought maybe having a "traveller" type rig from batten to floor would work, but I'm not sure how you're supposed to keep the line taut when it needs to travel IN.
The last time we used this trick I remember the floor block/bottom block was screwed to the floor... I think... It's been a few years.
Anyway, if anyone has insight as to how I can accomplish this trick, I'd appreciate the input.
