About:
An experienced Lighting Cameraman. Recently completed a training course on the Red camera system, and would now like to work with this camera. The Red One camera delivers 12M pixels at up to 60fps and records a wide dynamic range and colour space 'Red code' 12 bit native RAW. That's more than 5 times the amount of information available every second and a vastly superior recording quality. If you don't need all that data for your workflow? Just dial back to 3K/2K. Earlier this year I also linked up with the BBC, Sony and 3ality from California on 3D camera rigs,learning positive and negative parallax, to convergence and interaxial space, these rigs are at the forefront of 3D acquisition. Now wanting to learn more about set up and operation within broadcast and 3D production.
Experienced in studio & location/lighting. December rolled out with the Sony NEX-FS100 35mm sensor HD camera working on a SKY programme aired in January. Versed with the PMW EX3/1R and Canons HD 50Mbps XF305 camera. A team player working alongside vision mixers and DOPs, talkback etc. Rigs and de-rig. Face to face Client/Director experience References available Recent experience on Final Cut Pro Editing. A creative reliable and committed cameraman, with a vital sense of humour. Throw a camera at me and i'll use it professionally. Contact: Mob: 07702 433847 +44(0)1189 342797 or view a teaser on:
