VA COMMERCIAL

I just shot a Veteran's Affairs commercial with director Noah Mucci. It was a really great experience. We shot on my Red Epic with some of my old vintage lenses mixed with some of my newer zeiss lenses. We shot on the Mole Richardson sound stage in Hollywood. I had access all the lights that Mole Richardson make. My new love are the Mole beam projector lights and also their new LED softlight tungsten and daylight models. They are my new go to for creating sunlight on a sound stage. We projected war footage on the walls of a bedroom set and rigged projectors to fluid heads on sliders in scissor lifts. It's going to be amazing!!!

Here is an updated shot of all the vintage and modern lenses I've collected, mostly vintage! They all have very unique characteristics. Some flare incredible, others have crazy bokeh, and some are low contrast magical portrait lenses.

My first gif.

This was one of the first shots I did with my Red. I didn't realize the sparks would travel so far. Don't worry the camera and lens survived.
