Motor in the center. The second pulley gave me to motion I was looking for, with the vertical motion of the arms being double of what the head does. I also used a counterweight at the front of the rig (off to one side). I'll try to post a video.

I thought about building a second rig, to make something rise up from behind a tombstone. And then a greater head motion would be better.
