Lightgroup @ Transmission Studio Denver

The Lightgroup chose Transmission Studio for their video production on August 19th. Here Bill LeVasseur and Michelle Tuttle of Maximum Talent prepare for their next scene while producer Kevin Skattum, director John Evans and DP Gil Barkey set-up the for the shot. It made for a very interesting day because the producers used ReflecMedia for the key effect and we had a green light ring on the hard camera with a blue light ring on the camera crane. The colors only crossed when the cameras were within about a 10-15 degree angle of each other. To prevent overlap we just avoided putting the cameras close enough together to cause any disruption and the reflective background cooperated. Other than the Ice Cream Man and his loudspeaker outside the backdoor, the shoot went smoothly.

MOOV at Transmission Studio Denver

This photo is from a shoot with MOOV at Transmission Studio. Lori and Jeff needed to record a cake with the candles blowing out and smoke rising into the air. We started with an overhead light, a bounce fill and some backlight for the smoke. Then we shot the scene several times, each time removing one light from the equation. This gave them many options to work with which will make for a tough choice, as they all turned out really good. Photo by Tom Hoch

This is the Active Force Foundation fundraising video we recently completed. Working with Dom Cimino and the Wounded Warriors program from Fort Carson we were on hand to to document functions that Active Force Foundation organizes to help athletes and soldiers who have been injured begin to heal again through events that promote an active lifestyle. Please check out the video and the websites and then donate anything you can to help these programs continue.

Nightvision 2010 – More from Backstage

More pictures from the stage at Nightvision 2010. I took these on the second day of the music festival as I wandered around during soundcheck and set-up. Apparently the band Third Day prefers Fender and Gretch guitars. Don’t you?

The second shot is of the stage before Third Day came on. It was late and there were delays. But as you know, the Show must go on.

Nightvision 2010 – behind the scenes

The lighting crew readies a truss full of Par lights during set-up today for Nightvision Music Festival in Olathe, CO. I had a few minutes down time when I took this picture while waiting for the stage crew to clear water from the roof over the main stage. A big storm roared through the town and nearly ripped the tent from its moorings. It held us up all afternoon and we didn’t finish set-up until 9pm!

This weekend I’m working with the Yellow Gal Productions video crew and their new HD production trailer for the two day festival.

Flying Saucer Films and Phil Lucero Productions

This screen grab is from a production I was on last weekend at Invesco Field @ Mile High with Flying Saucer Films and !mpossible Pictures for DISH Network NFL Red Zone. Director Randy Martin gave me a lot of creative freedom and the tools to make it happen. I had the 24 foot Triangle JimmyJib out with the HDX900 and a super fisheye lens from MP&E. The nice weather lasted all day and provided exeptional texture in the sky late when the clouds rolled in.

The Golden Gate Bridge

This view of San Francisco’s famous Golden Gate Bridge was taken June 8th near Vista Point above Horseshoe Bay. Though I dealt with high winds and no tripod, I was very lucky to have relatively clear weather the entire trip. The photo was shot handheld using the Nikon D700 at f24 x .0015625 sec.

Dennis Hopper – Rest In Peace

Administrator — Sun, 30 May 2010 17:19:35 +0000

American actor Dennis Hopper died Saturday at age 74. Seen in classic movies “Easy Rider”, “Apocolypse Now” and “Blue Velvet”, Hopper brought real life and excitement to the roles he played. Always the underdog and sometimes accused of being difficult to work with early in his career, Hopper, a Hollywood outsider helped to establish the counterculture movement. In 1998 “Easy Rider” was included in the United States National Film Registry for being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.”
