Southern California

In January 2010 my wife and I had the opportunity to move to the left coast of the USA. So, with the same great enthusiasm I provided a slightly different mix of services at a different latitude on the other side of the country.Sought after not only for production expertise in Southern California, I traveled to 19 states leading small to 50+ person crews on a variety of media projects including national TV spots, corporate meeting keynotes, webcasts, and infomercials.I owned the latest technology to originate motion visual images - Sony PMW-F55 & Sony FS-700R cameras with raw recorders - digital lighting including HMI's and LED's - camera movement including sliders plus a 4 axis gimbal stabilizer plus a remote head jib arm plus a PortaJib Traveler plus a CamBLOK Adventure motion control system.70% of my work involved airline travel to shoot across the United States. Assessing needs, shipping equipment, and booking travel to produce advertising media without margin for delays or excuses was a requirement for each production.• Rights managed lifestyle advertising stock photographer.

Missing the travel and adrenaline rush of on-set production, I took the opportunity to downsize 19 years of asset growth and return to the field. Same great attitude, many of the same clients, utilizing the latest technology that made production gear smaller, lighter, and more nimble. Big trucks to small trucks and flight kits enabling more travel work and larger geographical reach.Extensive experience with media content creation, including acting as freelance agency producer, especially in the travel/tourism/hospitality, healthcare, communications, and financial services segments.• Rights managed lifestyle advertising stock photographer.

For 19 years I provided ways for producers to get motion media shot. Started in '85 as a Gaffer-Owned Grip and Lighting company; added top-of-the-line video cameras in '90; I added film cameras in the mid-'90's and along the way I introduced toys like camera cranes and VA's first mobile Avid post-production set-up. In '97 I added a dry-hire traditional rental operation with multiple grip trucks, motion picture generators, and more. At the end of the '90's, I added corporate event capabilities with event lighting, sound reinforcement, and multi-camera live production capabilities. • Traveled internationally and to 29 states leading small to 65+ person crews in sometimes technically or historically sensitive locations. Integral part of enabling award-winning productions. My work raised and/or sold $ millions.• Facilitated live TV and corporate event content and staging for worldwide audiences webcast across 65 countries.
