About David
- What cameras and equipment have you worked with the most?
The medium I get to use is determined by the needs of the client at the time. In my experience my “GOTO” A Cam is A SONY fx9. Which stands true when capturing our client’s stories. I have a Sony FS5 MKii as my B cam as standard kit. However my joy is pushing boundaries with other camera brands. Such as: ARRI, RED & CANON.
- Do you specialize in a specific shoot style?
A jack of all trades is better than a master of none, its still better than a master of one. From live events for major networks to feature films. My wheelhouse is growing day by day.
- How long have you been filming?
7 years in total, On staff at Go To Team for 3 years.
- Do you have a favorite project you’ve worked on?
Hard to give a favorite one since I haven’t experienced it yet. Maybe it will be on set with your story involved. However my Top 5 includes getting in a NO DOOR HELICOPTER to capture some ole fashion eye in the sky footage. Hope you spotted it in my reel. Getting to see my howntown Brooklyn and the rest of NYC was a ONE OF A KIND Expereince.
