VIDEO / EDITING

Shooting principally with an URSA MINI PRO 4.6k EF camera in HD + 4k, with SAMYANG primes and CANON zooms,
I bring a cinematic eye to all types of productions: documentary, corporate, fiction, music promos and live visuals.

My custom 12 ft 3-stage timelapse dolly track doubles for real-time shooting.

B-cam is a compact PANASONIC LUMIX LX-15, which I often use in concert with a KONOVA 3 ft slider – motorised or hand-moved.

Sound is recorded via 2 x RODE FILMMAKER radio mics and SENHEISER 416 directional, with ZOOM H6.

I edit with DA VINCI and ADOBE CC suites, inc. SAPPHIRE VFX plug-ins, ensuring the highest quality post-production
and customised export settings for all your requirements.

TIMELAPSE / MOTION CONTROL

Two long duration, night capable kits with pan / tilt / tracking are centred around
CANON 5D Mk2 cameras – max. pixel dimension = 5616 x 3744.

True ‘feathering’ motion control enables perfectly smooth acceleration / deceleration of camera movement
at start and end of shots, and can be programmed for almost any duration required.

The tracking system comprises of 3 x 4 ft lengths, which can be used singly or in combination.
Travel over track joins are imperceptible, even in 4k projection.

Track can be ground laid, with camera on short / tall tripod or direct to cart,
or tripod suspended, with camera direct to cart.

Over 80 template tracking moves have been pre-calculated to accommodate almost any
shot/duration requirement over any distance from 3 > 11 ft.

Power source is a 12v motorbike battery, capable of pulling two cameras simultaneously on a custom off-set mount,
giving highly advantageous coverage in premium priced locations.

Control systems via rugged ‘Time Machine’ hardware and electronics, designed by Bryan Mumford.
Fully field tested in temperatures between 1 and 35 degrees C, on-location reliability is 98% and above.

All configurations include camera power adaptors and lens heating as standard.
Modular design enables hand carried single camera set-ups to be transported to difficult locations.

A dedicated production vehicle with live-in facilities, including high output solar panel and all-12v charging,
enables long duration location shooting with full on-site image check & delivery via laptop.

The reel below shows the development of the tracking system and some of its utilisation
in the production of my 2k widescreen film REMNANTS

PHOTOGRAPHY

My commissions have included Golden Globe winning vocalist and musician Lisa Gerrard,
as well as Tangerine Dream and Thorsten Quaeschning.

From portraits to landscapes, from behind-the-scenes to final product,
