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!!!
