Week Two Photo Challenge: Me Working

     This is a photo of myself on the set of the show “Sound Check”. I was both the director and the cinematographer for the shoots during “Sound Check”. Together with my crew, we created a half hour pilot to air on Las Vegas TV. The episode ran for three weeks.

During the shoot, we utilized the latest technology in the digital film realm including the Canon 7D, JVC’s pro series GY-HM700, Panasonic’s HMC150 and various audio equipment.

The pilot took about seventy hours of shooting and forty-eight hours of post-production.

This particular picture was taken during a group interview with a few bands who were performing later that night during a joint concert sponsored by Vitamin Water.

Working as a director I coordinated a team and was able to be a part of the project from beginning to end. I was involved from concept to post-production.

I believe this photograph is a great example of me working. It shows my ability to take on different positions at once. I was directing, monitoring audio levels and setting up lighting. The photo shows my camera operation and my audio monitoring.  In this photo we can see the GY-HM700, which is a high-end broadcast camera. A category of camera  that most new to the business filmmakers and videographers haven’t had a chance to use. This helps to exemplify my abilities on set.
