800 Red Sox Games Later – How I Remain Creative as a Sports Cameraman

I am a professional broadcast sports television camera operator. That is what pays the bills and I enjoy it. Most of the time.
I am about 80 percent television technology guru and 20 percent sports fan at the moment. I love using the top of the line high definition camera equipment that costs more than my [...]

One Week Canon 5dmk2 Timelapse of Ice-in at Newfound Lake, NH

UPDATE: January 6, 2010 – Download 1080p version of “One Week at Newfound Lake” at bottom of this page.
The winters in New Hampshire are brutal and many people die each year from exposure. They get lost hiking or their car breaks down on a lonely mountain road. I have been experiencing the raw power of [...]

Boston Bruins Puck Follow and Winter Classic at Fenway Park

There is a huge difference shooting sports at a high frame rate and playing back the action in super slow motion. We are all use to seeing sports covered at 30 frame per second. The jagged frames look like a strobe effect when played back instant replay. Take a look at some footage I shot [...]

The Breathing Banana

I was going crazy, waiting in my idling carbon monoxide filled car, working on my astro-timelapse project. It was -18C or -1F outside, I can’t take that kind of cold. You see, to shoot timelapses, you must be patient. Or at least find something to edit while the earth rotates….very slowly.
A few notes about the [...]

Astro-Timelapse Project Update #2 – Chasing The Stars

Hey, I’m back on the grid for a minute borrowing someone’s wireless…
Right now, it is -1F or -18C for you metric folks. Earlier today, I shot some footage for fun about a half mile off a mountain road in northern New Hampshire. I wanted to see how the Canon 5dmk2 would react to the cold, [...]

Capturing live music with Zoom H4 portable stereo recorder

I have owned the Zoom H4 for about a year and I have used it on many different projects. I have used it to record natural “wild” sound while shooting nature, specifically waterfalls. I have used it to capture audio inside the Boston Garden as the Celtics pulled the championship banner up into the rafters. [...]

Astro-Timelapse Project Preview

I have been having a lot of fun lately. “Late” being the key word. And I am working on a new project.
I am very excited about the Canon 5Dmk2 DSLR, but not just because of the shallow depth of field people have been raving about. I am very excited about the low light capabilities of [...]

Mt Moosilauke Cosmic 5dmk2 Time Lapse Site Survey

Two days ago, I was on the side of Mt Moosilauke in Benton New Hampshire looking for a place to setup a panning Canon 5dmk2 timelapse. I was very surprised and unprepared for the extreme winter conditions near the summit. It was mid October! How could there be a foot of snow and tons of [...]
