Atlanta and Raleigh Crews Hang with the SEC

So for the past couple of shoots, Jimmy and I have been hitting the road hard with Intersport shooting interviews, b-roll and super slow-mo of a few of the SEC schools.  I was super super excited for this because I got to work on a Sony FS700 shooting in slow motion!  I had never used […]...

Dallas Crew Goes “On Strike” With Moms

Yeah, you read that right but it’s not what you think.  That just seemed like a catchy title for this blog.  I recently shot a feature for the Steve Harvey Show.  It’s about over worked moms who have husbands or children who don’t think being a mom is a full time job.  Well, being a […]...

Dallas Crew Shoots for MSNBC’s “Your Business”

Dallas is apparently home to a pretty cool business.  How cool?  Well, it’s a business that houses rooms filled with objects that you pay to smash to bits and pieces.  They supply you with safety goggles, a jump suit, a helmet, and a weapon.  Once you’re in the room you can let out all your […]...

GTT’s Atlanta Crew shoots for Unsung

Shooting for Unsung in Atlanta seems to be something I do quite often.  As I usually do, I got the backdrop they sent in the mail and hung it up.  I lit it with my party gel pack and some cookie cutters and made it look beautiful.  The challenge for this shoot in particular was […]...

Dallas Crew Heads to Moore, OK for Fox Sports One
