TNDV Marks First Year of Aspiration 35 Cinematic Production Truck

TNDV is marking the first anniversary of Aspiration 35, a mobile production truck built around ARRI Alexa 35 Live camera systems. Over its first year, the truck has supported the Stand Up To Cancer fundraising special, KIDZ BOP Live: The Concert Movie, and the Unity Concert for America, a July 4th event in Philadelphia broadcast on WPVI-TV and multiple streaming platforms. TNDV's partnership with Nashville-based dbV Rentals provides access to ARRI camera systems, cinema lenses, and technical support for each deployment.

The most recent deployment was a 10-camera ARRI Alexa 35 Live production for the Unity Concert for America, featuring specialty camera positions, robotic systems, and Fujinon Duvo lenses covering performances including Will Smith and The Roots. A separate broadcast camera was deployed to produce the in-venue IMAG feed.

When we introduced Aspiration 35, our goal wasn't simply to build another production truck, says Rob Devlin, President, TNDV. We wanted to create a purpose-built cinematic production platform backed by the people, workflows and partnerships that allow clients to confidently tackle the industry's most demanding productions. One year later, we've proven that vision across live network broadcasts, theatrical releases and large-scale concert productions. Anyone can purchase cameras or build a truck. What ultimately determines success is the team behind it.

The technology is certainly important, but what really makes this partnership successful is the experience behind it, says Doug Bates, Owner, dbV Rentals. Rob and the TNDV team understand live production inside and out, while we bring decades of experience supporting cinematographers with the right camera systems and lens packages for every creative vision. Together we've created a workflow that gives clients confidence from the earliest planning stages through the final shot.
