Hire this dude.

This past weekend I spent some time shooting a short video presentation for John.  Apparently there are some job applications that now require you to upload or link a video.  This particular job asked for a short sales presentation.   Check it out:

The parameters of the assignment didn't really allow for much creativity, but we were able to add a little personality.  My favorite part is the tracking shot at the beginning.  We did a handful of takes and this final one was simply inspired.  John's motioning with the remote, Kate's improvised gesture, and Ryan's "Woah" when he put on the 3D glasses really pulled it all together. 

I am still not totally happy with the lighting despite using six directional lamps, a chandelier, and an overhead light.  I think I might invest in some more portable spotlights.  John and I have discussed doing a video podcast for sometime, so it might be a good investment.

Speaking of podcasts.  Stay tuned for some info about a new project.  Here is the teaser line: 

F-Bomb gets called up to the majors.
