About EJ

EJ Watson

I primarily use the Sony FX9. I have worked mostly with Sony models, including the FX6, F5, FS5II, and A7S series. However, I have also worked with Canon models such as the C300 and C70, as well as the Blackmagic PocketCam 6k. My shoot style is forever evolving. The good thing about working with this company is that you get to work on a variety of projects. With that variety, I am able to keep my style flexible and fluid in order to meet any shoot needs. My favorite project was working on Rate the Bars with Flava Flav. I was a huge fan growing up and it was awesome to work with him.
