I got an opportunity for a behind the scenes experience with @jrm_video while they did a live TV broadcast of the Baldwin High School vs Mt. Lebanon High School basketball games.
It was great watching @jakemysliwczykphoto and Ryan direct the production and the crew. Big thanks to them for letting me invade their Production Trailer. Here are photos from that experience.
I took this time lapse with 1,891 photos put together to create this video. I used a DJI Pocket Osmo strapped to the cabin balcony railing using my belt to hold it place. I didn’t want it to fall overboard, so my belt did double duty. Held my pants up and secured the Pocket Osmo to the ship railing.
The beginning of the video shows the beautiful Bonaire sunset, but shortly afterward you see the storm come in with a very dark dramatic looking sky and at the very end you can see the ship leave port with the island disappearing into the distance.
I shared the news on our new project yesterday called “Shutter Rush – Baltimore Edition” (release date to be determined). As part of yesterday’s post, I shared a thumbnail photo for the film. Today, I’m sharing the second thumbnail.
I’m looking forward to the film release to see what kind of reaction we get. Until then, I’ll just have to wait.
As some of you know, I covered the Steelers’ last game of the season in Baltimore (along with most of their home games). I can’t believe I’ve been photographing the Steelers from the sidelines for 8 years now.
Anyway, I traveled with two other great sports photographers @jasonpohuski and @jakemysliwczykphoto. We made a weekend out of it…traveled together, photographed many cool spots in the city and covered the game together. As part of that adventure, we photographed of course, but we also captured much of it via video. All that was put together by Jason into a feature film called “Shutter Rush – Baltimore Edition”. Jason even got @underarmour to sponsor this project. Big thanks to them for all their support and gear. I don’t know when, but it sounds like this film will be released on Amazon Prime and other major streaming services in the near future. Once that happens, I’ll give you an update. In the meantime, we’re actively planning our next trip to have fun and capture photos and video for the next Shutter Rush edition… More to come.
Below is a collection of video clips and photos from before, during and after the Steelers vs. Rams game. I’ve been trying to capture some video with my iPhone at different times instead of only taking photos with my camera. I’m not a video expert and I don’t claim to be a video editing expert, but this will give you a little idea of what I see from the field.
They play this at every Steelers home game usually in the 3rd quarter to get the crowd pumped up. The video clips are changed every game, so the video portion is unique every time. But the result is the same….
I captured this with my iPhone a few games ago. I’m trying to capture some video this year mainly for my own memory purposes. I realize the Steelers game access I’ve had for the last 8 years will end at some point. So, I want to make sure I capture some of the non-live action game moments as well.
I was messing around Sunday with my drone and created this little video while sitting on my deck…. Not exactly a cinematic classic, but fun!! Have a great week.
Short post for you tonight. Here is a DJI Mavic Pro hyperlapse video from the backside of downtown Pittsburgh. This is actual a combination of two different hyperlapse videos merged together. Enjoy.
When we booked our Hilton DoubleTree Inn hotel room in Gilbert Arizona (a suburb of Phoenix), I had no idea it was near such a cool location. For our trip to Sedona, we booked over night stays in Gilbert on the first night and the last night of the trip. In between we spent our time in Sedona. But these nights in Gilbert, allowed us to attend a Cubs vs. Reds spring training game, prep for our flights home, etc… On our first night, I saw this temple and knew I had to go back before we flew home. So on the last morning, I got up before sunrise and went to the temple to catch the blue hour and sunrise. Basically, I wanted good light for this photo. This photo is the result of getting up at 530am in the morning.
A little about the temple: This is the Gilbert Arizona Temple, which is a temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). They announced their plans for this temple in 2008 concurrently with the Gila Valley Arizona Temple. It took about two years to build and they had a formal public open house in February 2014. It is the 142nd temple of the LDS Church and was built to ease the load of the nearby Mesa Arizona Temple.
On a personal note, this isn’t a huge building but it is an outstanding structure and example of wonderful architecture. I hope you enjoy the photo and video as much as I enjoyed seeing the building in person.
