Run & Gun Solution

I shoot quite a bit of video on my 5D Mark2.  The biggest issue I had was figuring out a ‘run & gun’ solution where I could record audio & video at the same time.  The on-board audio on the 5dmark2 is crapporiffic at best. The solution; mount my Sennheiser wireless receiver to my 5D, then the kick butt Zoom H4n with Redhead windscreen to a  Zacuto Rapid Fire.  Problem solved.  I like this solution because My hands have instant access to the record buttons, as well as the zoom & the focus.  Essential for run & gun.

DSLR rig review

Over the past few months I have shot quite a few projects (both stills and video) on my 5DMark2.  Shooting video on the thing is a bit of a challenge & you can get into a lot of trouble if you dont know what you are doing.  One thing that is critical for shooting video on a DSLR is a rig that will support your gear.  Cinema 5D has posted a 25page review on various DSLR rigs that is fantastic.  Enjoy.

Las Vegas Video Shoot

Huge thanks to the City of North Las Vegas Mayor, Police Dept, Airforce, Thunderbirds,Fire Department, Nurses, Doctors, Judges, City Council…EVERYONE!  The shoot was fast and furious (3  1/2 hrs), but we got some fantastic shots. I did a rough cut last night & the video is looking very nice.  Thanks to all involved.  Also, thanks to Ruben Luevano for the shots below!

Everything was shot in the Canon 5D Mark 2 with the Redrock Micro MatteBox, Followfocus & Zacuto Z-Finder.  I have the 70-200mm mounted in the shots below.

Blast from the past…

Good times…  The reason I have girly wallpaper(behind me during my interview) in my office is because the room used to be a little girl’s bedroom before we setup shop.  What an amazing team that literally  LIVED at that crazy make-shift office for months to make the deadline.

HTML5….wow

Quote from a flash dev buddy of mine, “Holy Shizza, I think I just gave up on Flash for HTML5.”  Check out their canvas/audo experiment;
