Apologies for the video quality, this weeks was filmed on an underwater Pentax P&S, ISO was not adjustable in video mode.

...gone back in time!

Hang onto your hats, this week's Producer Vlog takes a trip to the past with Magic Bullet aging tools. This 2 minute video took almost 6 hours to render.

Shot on a Canon 5D with Nikon 50mm f2.4

...shot an indie short!

I was Director of Photography on an indie short last night, called "Real", directed by Ryan Moccia. Check out these production stills. We shot on a Canon 5D with only an LED Rotolight on the hotshoe. The streetlights did the rest of the work, thanks to the amazing Zeiss 35mm f2.0 lens we rented. The wicked F-stop combined with the 5D's phenomenal low-light capabilities allowed us to shoot any way we wanted, under a streetlamp, or in the midle of the street.

Pics are framegrabs from footage at 2500 ISO, shutter speed 30






"Real" is premiering at the Render This! film festival this January.

Here's my weekly Producer Vlog for December 3, 2010

...watched the most beautiful video i've ever seen.

The only youtube video to ever make me cry. it's a bit on the longer side(15 min), but definitely worth it.

...taken a walk in the park

Ryan and I made a parody of the youtube sensation Frank L Sharp. See the original here.
