Kit Cool

This unique support offers total freedom, moving forward and back, and rotating around its own axis for precise microphone positioning. Kit Cool enables single handed and full operation of the boom pole on the move. The other hand is free to operate the mixer, or to hold the support when using a long pole. Now the Kit Cool is regularly used in movies studios, video industry, TV films, magazines and news worldwide.

With the Kit Cool, take the weight off your arms and let your belt take the strain!


The Kit Cool allows a fishpole to be supported by one hand, even overhead.
"Swinging a boom pole can be very tiring and hard work.
I know that for 15 years.
That the reason why I invented the flexible, mobile and lightweight Kit Cool system to take the weight of the boom off my arms."

"A remedy for 'Long Take Syndrome'

My name is Jeff Pullman. I am currently the production sound mixer on the HBO production 'In Treatment', now in its third season.
This is my first time on the show and in discovering the production requirements for the show the 'Kit Cool' came to mind. (but not having physically seen it). In discussions with my boom operators we researched numerous options; Fisher booms, stand mounts and a few other crazy ideas along with the Kit Cool.

Peter Schneider at Gotham Sound in New York arranged a demo for Neil Danziger the boom operator on the show. Neil and the Kit Cool hit it off immediately, and Neil is VERY particular.
The requirements of the show are as follows: a four walled set with two or more actors in a psychiatrists office having a session essentially in real time. Therefore, 15-20 minute takes with multiple back to back takes and with two booms 99% of the time. Needless to say holding a boom that long...!!! We record 3 or more hours of actual material per day and at the end of it the boom operators still have energy to spare. Neil has expressed a great appreciation for the device. We have purchased two.
It appears to us that the future of TV in the digital format has now pushed the sound department to its physical limits and in a situation, particularly on this show where 95% of the dialogue can be recorded with a boom mic the 'Kit Cool' has saved the day!
We are considering an article concerning our approach to the show and will shortly have photos available. I would highly recommend this device be considered by any sound department as a remedy for 'Long Take Syndrome'... "Don't cut... Keep rolling!!!..."...

Appreciatively,
