New look to our website (again)

You’ve probably noticed a new design and layout to our site – so what do you think?

We’re very pleased with the decision to make the change, and if you visited our site toward June of last year, you may be thinking, “didn’t they change the look of the site less than a year ago?”  Well, yes, yes we did.  But let me explain a bit… Keep Reading…

Our website gets new look, functionality

If you’ve visited our site in the past, you’ve probably noticed that the site looks and feels quite different than it did before. Over the past six months I’ve been trying to find the right layout and look for our website.  So, after many revisions/redesigns, I’ve updated our website with a cleaner look with better, clearer functionality. Over the next few weeks you may notice minor tweaks and changes here and there, as well as more content filling in minor gaps. This includes a section dedicated to current projects that I’m working on as well as more blog posts about recently completed projects and some that are on the horizon.

When it comes to the thought process for choosing this theme design and why it took a good chunk of time to find it, there’s quite a story and sequence of events that resulted in this final decision, which is sort of a “third times the charm” type scenario. For now, I’ve leave you in anticipation for the story behind the decision which will continue in another blog post soon. If you have some thoughts you’d like to share on the new look to the site, feel free to leave your comments below. Thanks!

College Admission Documentary Begins

Recently my filmmaker-friend Mike Shum and I began shooting interviews for his documentary on college admission.  The working title for the film is “Am I Good Enough?”  The angle for the film is focused more from the admission counselors’ point-of-view rather than just high school juniors and seniors who are in the middle of the admission process.  Mike is the writer, director and producer, and I’m his D.P. for the project.  As we move forward with shooting I’ll post more stills, maybe even some clips.

For those of you who are production inclined and curious about gear – we’re running 2 DVX100B’s (shooting 30p), Sennheiser G2 wireless lav and a Lowell tungsten kit (Pro lights) for interviews.

These stills are from the first interview with an admission counselor at Colorado College.  These are from the raw footage – no color grading.
