With the Grizzlies making it into the NBA playoffs I headed out to Memphis. I was shooting for Turner Sports on the Sony F-900. The first two days were spent working with TNT talent, Mark Fein, as we shot interviews and scrum sound with players from the Grizzlies and Spurs during practice. On the third […]...
Go To Team’s Charleston based Director of Photography, Dave Baker, had a chance to sit down with Republican Presidential candidate Tim Pawlenty the morning following the GOP debate in Greenville, SC. 5am and the crew began converting an empty hotel meeting room into the backdrop for a Good Morning America live shot. The Arri […]...
It is tough being a Tar Heel fan this basketball season, especially when Duke is poised to kill it this year. So while no one is talking about UNC, Duke is getting a lot of coverage. Recently, Charlotte, NC based HD cameraman Nick Modisett spent a day inside Duke’s Cameron Indoor Stadium with three of […]...
From Dallas to Daytona, Atlanta DP and Apprentice Kevin Juston were on the road again right after finishing up Superbowl 45 and heading to the Daytona 500.

It wasn’t long after the tornados hit Alabama that I got the call from Fox News to head down to Birmingham.

There’s no doubt that […]...

With March Madness right around the corner, I had a feeling it was only a matter of time before I found myself on a NCAA basketball shoot. Before I could say “Jump Shot,” I was heading up to Lexington, KY followed by Memphis, TN for Intersport. It didn’t take long before I found myself driving […]...
It’s been a pretty exciting few weeks at Go To Team! Between a new crew launch in Nashville, TN, the Super Bowl, and the Daytona 500, it’s been easy to overlook all the new gear we just purchased. After looking at them for several years and wondering when the time would come, we finally bought […]...
Most of Go To Team’s shoots are far from typical but a recent shoot at the “World’s Famous Milestone” was beyond typical, if you can even call it that. If you’ve never heard of the Milestone then you probably aren’t too familiar with the “punk scene” in Charlotte. The Milestone is a rundown home turned […]...
While in Dallas, TX, for Super Bowl 45 Go To Team’s Skip Clark was there to shoot features and artwork with all the players in the big game. And one of the bigger shoots that week was the confetti shoot. Fox Sports wanted to capture the players with the Vince Lombardy Trophy for footage to […]...
The best thing about this job is that everyday is different. When I got the call that I would be shooting for a crime documentary I was pretty excited. I hadn’t worked on something like that before. The producers sent me an episode to get myself familiar with the show’s style. Watching the show also […]...
