Hello Drivers!A year ago, Paul Johnson at Highshot Cinematics came to the track with a very clear goal in mind. He wasn't looking for basic seat time. Paul came to master the advanced choreography required to utilize a Camera Car and Arm Car for maximum impact on screen. When he was done with the weekend, he look at me and said straight up: I would give three fingers to study with you, Scotty. — Paul Johnson, Highshot Cinematics
Today, our joint projects are proving exactly why that kind of elite track literacy matters: it delivers visceral storytelling that puts the audience right in the driver’s seat. Which brings me to the real question for every working driver on this list: Are you comfortable working in inches alongside an Arm Car, a Camera Car, and its driver?Sliding a vehicle in open space is one thing. Nailing your marks while a 1,000-pound motorized crane tracks inches from your quarter panel requires an entirely different level of discipline. It demands absolute trust, spatial awareness, and the ability to hold a line so the lens gets the hero shot on take one. Directors and coordinators hire the wheelmen (and women) who make their camera teams look brilliant without compromising safety. If you freeze up or miss your framing when the arm swings in, you don't get the callback. All the specialized training you need to master camera-vehicle coordination is right here at Scotty’s. We don't just teach you how to drive; we make you the obvious first choice on the call sheet. Fall cohorts are limited to September and October dates.
