It’s Been a Busy Summer

I’ve been keeping very busy the past few months and among the projects Ive had the fortune to be a part of are two shows for HGTV: You Live in What? and Cool Pools.  Both projects are through AMS Pictures here in Dallas.  I’ve been Field Producing segments on both shows and it has been a great experience.

Thin Line Film Fest Sponsor Reel

I had the pleasure of producing the sponsor Reel for the 2013 Thin Line Film Fest. Shot in one night using a couple portable LED’s and existing light, I wanted to evoke a noirish, romantic feel. Great help from fellow DPA members Lisa Joiner, Richard S. Blake, and Robbie Tullos. Here is the official version:

I just finished producing this video for Jesse’s A/C & Appliance in the Whiterock Lake area.

Using Portable LED's to Light for an Interview

After purchasing the Dot Line DV60A and Striker Flexit for a video shoot at a nightclub, I started wondering how well these led's might work in an interview setting. Because they are so light and portable, I thought it might be interesting to know what I could do if I were ever in a bind without my standard video lights. I was pleasantly surprised by the look I achieved and if I were in an emergency situation, I'd feel comfortable enough to use a similar setup (Perhaps with a few more DV60A's or similar). I was not a fan of led technology for video use for a long time, but I think I may be becoming a convert. Let me know your thoughts below.
