I hope this makes you smile? This is "TEST 2" as we learn and practice the art of stop motion, before we begin the journey of filming the set we have created... Sadly, the camera died 🙁  during this shot and we had to sub in a second camera and try to match the frame and color correction. I think it worked out and we are happy it happened during a test. Let us know if you enjoy this? #filmmaking #stopmotion #setbuild #miniaturesets

How funny is it, when you are doing a creative set build and you go for a hike to get ideas and you find something that may be perfect for your build? I am going to open this pretty thing up and take some of the innards for the stop motion mix project...

We are pretty excited to have been a small part of this feature animation. It is an OFFICIAL SELECTION at SXSW 2021 film festival!

Use the Canon EOS C70 digital is for a macro shot? Mad Bean Spec Test

Due to feedback, I went back and and tested the Canon EOS C70 internal Digital IS on the Mad Bean spec spot I showed last week and I was impressed by the results. I made this video to give interested people a comparison view with this footage. It's not fancy, just a quick look at my results and humble opinion. I hope it adds to the conversation. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on Canon's Digital IS.
If you have any questions, let me know and I'll do my best to answer.
Thank you.

How we use blackmagic for our interviews during these COVID-19 times!

Hi guys,

I just put up a new video/kind of tutorial based on a response to COVID-19 and getting back to work on interviews.

This is how we use the BlackMagic Web Presenter with Teranex to Zoom our on set interview camera video and audio feed to Directors working from remote locations. We've used the box on recent interviews for Discovery, Microsoft, and other interviews and the Directors and Producers have loved the experience.... Hope this will help some of you!

If you have questions, let me know on the feed.
