The automated photography process, how does it work?

This depends on the execution of the studio and the desired end result. Our studios take up to 216 exterior photos in about 5 minutes. In addition, detail photos and possibly a 360° interior photo are likely to be taken. The time to be charged for this depends on the number of photos and the colleague operating the camera, but on average it takes our clients 2 to 7 minutes. Driving in and out takes about one minute in total on average.

For photographing vehicles, we recommend our Ø 5 meter turntable. Here it is advisable to keep a space of at least 7 x 7 meters free as a photo location, so that you can easily drive on and off the turntable.

There are a few things to consider when looking for suitable space within your business or new construction location:

1. Logical positioning: The space should be conveniently positioned in the routing. Especially if you want to photograph many cars per day, this is very important. It is practical to place the photo studio near the car wash or polishing department.
2. Convenient entry and exit: There should be no obstacles to get in and out quickly. After all, you want to get the car online as quickly as possible. In the flexible 360-degree rotation program, you easily enter the entry and exit position of the car yourself. As a result, you won’t mind if the drive-in position is not the correct starting position.
3. Avoiding daylight: Make sure you can control as much as possible how brightly the room is lit. Pre-Motion is happy to advise on the right lighting.
4. Keep it practical: Create a background and floor that are practical for everyday use and remain beautiful within the “dirty environment” of a car dealership.

No, that’s not necessary. The control system makes the photography process so simple that any employee can master it in a few hours. It is recommended to have an operator who is good at performing the same process every time, to achieve even more uniformity.

Perhaps you already have a space where you currently photograph and want to improve or expand it with turntable techniques. There are 3 options to consider:

1. New construction: You choose our turntable for automotive photography. You incorporate plans for a photo space into the routing of your building. A turntable recess of approximately 15.5 cm is included in the shell of the building, so that the platform is sunk into the concrete. Pre-Motion can help you with the construction drawing and wood template with stainless steel ring to create the recess.
2. Free space available: You build your own back wall, combine Pre-Motion’s standard wall elements to create a U- or L-shaped wall, or Pre-Motion installs a complete studio box in your space. For the photo box, you need a location with at least 7 x 9 meters of free space, such as in the workshop.
3. Existing photo space or photo studio: You already have a nicely furnished photo space on your premises and want to apply the technique of a turntable. Choose our car photography turntable or our turntable with construction accessories (for example, a raised floor with ramp edge). With the latter car photography solution, thanks to the sloping ramp edge, you easily drive your cars onto the 15 cm high turntable.
