"Hearst AppLab / Marie Claire" - Product Shots

This is the 1st of a series of projects I shot for French Press Films in partnership with Hot Studio. I was hired to shoot the table top footage, which was captured on a RED with the new MX sensor, and the short product insert at the end of the video, which was 7D. The doc/interview footage was provided by Marie Claire's in house team. It was my 1st time working with new the RED sensor. I have to say it was a dream compared to the original, where I was always fighting for latitude and sensitivity.

Grillade "Dream of You (Emotionally Yours)" - Offical Music Video

This is my second music video for French Press Films. Once again the guys were meticulous about prep, and had the song worked out down to each moment. I think it really shows in the final project.

"Invisalign" - Industrial

I shot this video with the folks over at Element 151. We did one day of B-roll at a shop where they make aligners by hand, and then a second day of interviews. Everything was shot 2 camera on a pair of Canon 7D's with a small kino and grip package.

"Strike 3" - Commercial

This is my third spot for Store Front Political Media, but the first with founder Eric Jaye directing. Eric was a great collaborator, we talked about the tone and what sort of coverage he was trying to get; then I built the shots around those ideas. After that things came together very quickly.

We shot for a half day starting pre-dawn to take advantage of the early morning light. We covered all the wides in the morning as the sun was coming up, then moved in for close ups as the day progressed. I used several 6'x6' frames of diffusion; 1/4 grid, bleached muslin, and china silk to match the morning light in the close ups. I also took advantage of the extremely shallow focus you can achieve with the s35 sized sensor of the Canon 7D to give the spot a more cinematic feel.
