Shoot and Edit

I've been doing more shooting lately. Shooting while directing, working with talent, and having control/responsibility for the final look and feel is exhilarating. As an editor, I know when I have what I need, which is efficient, and cost effective.

I shot and edited this spot for Partners+Simons that was supposed to sell their clients on a new campaign. It was well loved a. The campaign is on the way.

This labor of love needed to capture the excitement and intelligence of a group of 5th graders at Alton Jones Science Camp in Rhode Island. I was a one man band with a DSLR, a shotgun mic and a mission. The kids were fantastic, the setting beautiful, and the camp director was willing to record his song he wrote about the camp.

Disclaimer: this is a great length for the 5th graders, but long for a demo. I'll cut it down someday.

The IFF Boston theme this year was the film festival as nightlife, so I shot this all at night around Boston on a Canon C300, showing nightlife with real people, without their knowledge, and without their being being recognizable. It was very tricky. Disclaimer: several of the shots in here were by the fabulous Courtney Perkins.
