FORD COMMERCIAL!

Last month I went on the road to Canada, San Francisco, and Illinois for a Ford Campaign. We shot for about 8 days and did 5 commercials. Here's a link to the first commercial to start off the campaign. I was principle cinematographer on 4 out of the 5 but on this one I was 2nd unit DP. I shot everything except Mike Rowe but I can't complain it was a sweet job!!!

Vintage Lens update

Just got my 11th Vintage lens! Now I have a beautiful set of Russian, French, and Japanese vintage lenses.

Amazing Bokeh!

Here's a shot of some very unique bokeh from my vintage 100mm. I can't wait to use this!!!Who wants to be the first to use it with me?!

Pay close attention to the the group of lights in the middle. See the mini halo around each light bokeh blob? With a lot of mini lights this lens will be quite a fun beautiful lens to use!!!

Nissan Commercial shot in Indianapolis

I just spent the last weekend following a driver for Nissan, with Agency Chiat Day. Director Ryan Browne and I went to Indiana with our Red Epic and Scarlet and followed a driver named 

Bryan Heitkotter , he was the winner of the GT Academy last year which means he was the top video game player for a game called "Gran Tourismo". First place of the competition was to become a real race car driver. It was a pretty awesome weekend. Here are a couple of stills from the race.

VINTAGE LENSES

I'm starting a collection of vintage lenses! I just got my first legendary lens, the

SUPER TAKUMAR asahi PENTAX 50mm f/1.4 . Its amazing how sharp it is at 1.4. The lens is really warm and flares very easily.

 Here is a shot to show the  interesting bokeh that it creates out of focus. It makes you a little dizzy but I think that could be a good effect!

Here is my next lens. Coming all the way from the Ukraine!

San Jose Earthquakes Commercial

Here is a link to a commercial I shot a few months ago.  Low budget with 5 canon 5Ds locked off all over this house. This made it cheap and possible to return to the same shot 4 hours later to film the same actor in his face paint.

Hidden Valley Ranch Commercial

Just shot a Hidden Valley Ranch Commercial with Matt Fackrell in San Francisco. This was one of our locations.

Shooting in Texas

Just spent 3 days in Texas with Director John X. Carey. We shot on the Red Epic in a border town jail in Laredo Texas, San Antonio, and Austin for a documentary about the Dream Act. Should be a great emotional piece chalk full of perty pictures.
