Vancouver 2010
A couple weeks ago, we decided to drive to Vancouver to take part in the Olympic festivities. The 5D mkII went with us and I ended up shooting enough video to throw together a quick edit. I do love the portability of this little camera. Almost as much as I love the Winter Olympics. ...
Rolling Hills Casino – Bored Room
Last spot in the Better to Play series. I just watched all four back-to-back and I must say I'm pleased with their consistency. Yay for branding. This spot was shot on Red and posted in FCP with some help from Magic Bullet and After Effects (for the motion graphics). I'm pretty sure the idea for this spot came from an episode of Arrested Development. RIP Arrested Development. We'll always have the banana stand. ...

Stella’s Day
We have a rad dog named Stella. She's a unique little creature. Here's a little flick Lyn and I created to show a typical day in Stella's life. This was shot entirely on the Canon 5DMKII. It's a good proof-of-concept to show that you don't need a Red camera to create interesting visuals. You just need, well, interesting visuals. The small size and low weight of the MKII made it easy to get some of these hard to reach POV shots. Huge thanks to the talented Jef Gibbons for his musical contribution. Enjoy and Merry Christmas to all. ...
Levi Leipheimer’s Gran Fondo
Last month Lyn and I jumped down to Santa Rosa to film Levi Leipheimer's Gran Fondo. I know what you're thinking, "What the heck is a gran fondo?" Well, according to levisgranfondo.com, it is a "long distance, mass-participation cycling event – not a race." There, now you know. I must say it was a grand gran fondo. The course wound its way through deep, dark forests and across golden hillsides. The standard practice for covering cycling events is from the back of a motorcycle, or from a helicopter. Luckily, we had both. Carl Burchfiel, our fearless leader, wrestled a fully-kitted Red inside a tiny chopper while Lyn and I took the motos. ...

Spider on White – Macro
Canon 100mm Macro + Red One. Yes, I hate these things too, but I love to hate them. Working with this guy for about an hour emptied my adrenal glands. Definitely will need a spider wrangler next time. The spider was either sitting completely motionless, or scampering away off the table. That made me think that a subject like this would work really well for a "living photograph." Click the pic to see what I mean. ...
Portland Cyclocross
I shot this footage last December at the US Grand Prix of Cyclocross in Portland, Oregon. My buddy Chris was racing and I figured this would be a great way to try out the new Birger mount. After shooting for about a year with only the Red 18-50mm, it was pretty liberating to start shooting with some different focal lengths via Birger and EOS glass. This footage has been sitting on my hard drive for the last 8 months and I finally got around to editing some clips together. This is not meant to be anything more than a camera test so don't look too closely for ...

HV20 Underwater Housing
After a few failed attempts at building an underwater housing device for the Red (can you say large open tupperware with a viewing window at the bottom? Me neither), I settled on the simpler task of building one for the lowly Canon HV20. It was pretty easy to do, actually. A few pieces of ABS from Lowes, a little pipe dope, some teflon tape, and a used filter attached with silicon. The final setup setup looked kind of like a weapon with its nifty handle (which I filled with lead weights for stability) Location of choice was Clear Creek right beneath the falls. Most of the healthy salmon split once I jumped ...

Behind the Scenes – Girls Club
For those of you who think we work with a big crew, here is evidence to the contrary. In fact, I think this was the biggest crew we’ve had to-date. Choreographer, makeup artist (x2), PA, and Agency were all present. ...
