Shiitake Mushrooms growing at Swainway Urban Farm in Columbus, Ohio. Each mushroom takes roughly a week to grow to full size before it is ready to harvest. Shot with a Canon 7D and remote shutter release.
Pursuit: Columbus Crew SC Playoffs
Got to make another video for Pursuit featuring this time an actual Crew soccer match. Turns out sports can be fun!
CAS Dataloggers Product Videos
This is one of dozens of product videos that we shot with CAS Dataloggers in Chesetrland, Ohio. (https://www.dataloggerinc.com/) It was great setting up a mini studio in the back room and recording these between calls, coffee, and conversations around is in the office.
Custom Suits and Photo Shoot
This time I got to work in collaboration with the amazing people of The Wonder Jam (http://thewonderjam.com/). They make it easy to make these custom suits look good. Super fun shoot day, easy to edit great footage. Couldn't ask for more.
Enter: Drone Shots
"Few organizations represent the spirit and energy of our hometown better than Columbus Crew SC so we are honored to launch our newest and most exciting new product line, Pursuit Custom, in collaboration with the club. Pursuit worked collaboratively with Crew SC to design a unique new pre-game look to allow the players to arrive at the stadium in matching style."
The Pursuit Story
This one has been in the works for almost a year. So glad to be working with these great, well dressed, people on their videos. Also so glad that they partnered with Correy Parks on the music. Local talent. https://soundcloud.com/correyparks
Megan and Andrew Wedding Highlights
These guys had a great wedding at the beautiful Bluestone venue in Downtown, Columbus.
Shaggy Mane Mushroom Time Lapse
The Shaggy Mane (Coprinus comatus), also occasionally known as the Lawyers Wig, is a distinctive and easy to recognize mushroom. It's size, shape, and tendency to grow in tight groups make it easy to spot even from considerable distance. Shaggy Mane has an elongated bullet shaped, shaggy cap, with brownish upturned scales and a straight fairly smooth stem. Edibility: Choice. Shot with Canon 7D using remote shutter release shot at 1 frame every 30 seconds.
Amanda and Aaron's Wedding Highlights
These guys got married to the music from Game of Thrones and Star Wars, rolled around in a white stretch limo, and threw a hell of a reception. Thanks to Amanda and Aaron, Herk and Sandy, for including all of us in celebrating your love and marriage.
Dress For Success and HCT
Dress for Success teamed up with Hot Chicken Takeover to dress some of the HCT team for the next steps in their lives. DFS believes that looking good and feeling good go a long way towards empowerment and the self confidence needed to succeed and move forward with big decisions in your life, and HCT wants to be there for their employees every step of their journey.
Side Lake Retreat - 2016
"I am here alone for the first time in weeks, to take up my 'real' life again at last. That is what is strange—that friends, even passionate love, are not my real life unless there is time alone in which to explore and to discover what is happening or has happened." - May Sarton
"We simply need that wild country available to us, even if we never do more than drive to its edge and look in. For it can be a means of reassuring ourselves of our sanity as creatures, a part of a geography of hope." - Wallace Stegner
Time Lapse Mushrooms
Over the course of two days I left my camera on these fungi to show the motion that we normally can not perceive. Shot on a 7D with remote shutter release timer set to 1 frame every 30 seconds. I could almost call this a slug time lapse video.
Build Up
I filmed a time lapse video of a building construction from start to finish out in East Columbus. It is now an orthodontist office, but it was once just a little empty lot. Watch the transformation! Thanks Evolutions Architecture for hiring me on for the job.
"Whoopie Pie!" Jones Wedding
Meghan and Austin and families threw a great wedding that was enjoyed by all who attended, especially the bridal party. Lots of laughter, drinks, and love were flying around the dance floor and the newlyweds that night. "Whoopie Pie!"
Hot Suits!
The team from Hot Chicken Takeover were donated suits by the Pursuit guys. Why? Because their missions are the same. Prepare people for the next big steps in their life. Be it through employment and skill building or through looking f***ing sharp for an interview or your wedding. Both of these companies are great, I love making videos with them.
Robot Control
Here's an oldie but a goodie. Since 2010 I've been making the videos and product pictures for CAS Data Loggers out of Chesterland, OH. It's always fun to get to check out these amazing data machines in action, much like this 2012 ADwin Gold pendulum arm demonstration. Kind of gives you the chills when you think about how only a few years from now, robots all over the world will have even more powerful sensors and response mechanisms.
Trampled by Turtles: In Pursuit
I and my team had a wonderful time hanging out in the Pursuit store, sipping on cold beer while talking with the super down-to-earth guys from Trampled by Turtles. It was an in store concert event put on by Nate DeMars of Pursuit, one of several in the past and many more to come. Community members and friends were invited to come in and enjoy a free performance by these Minnesota bluegrass musicians after they got fitted for new suits. Enjoy! Pursuit yourself!
Hot Minute with Hot Chicken
Here is one of a long series of videos that I shot and edited highlighting some of the employees, customers, and community partners of the award winning Columbus based Hot Chicken Takeover restaurant. In this video we talk to Mikey of Mikey's Late Night Slice, another Columbus local restaurant force, released shortly before the collaboration between the two.
Spring Blossom
Here I filmed a time lapse video of the sex organs of an Amaryllis (its flower) in bloom over the course of a week. I shot it on my Canon 7D using a timed shutter release of 8 minutes per frame. I love how we can use technology to see motion where otherwise we would see none. This shows that plants and other natural processes happen just the same as things on our time scale, only at their own pace. Perhaps we can start to see our own reality not as the best or only way of viewing the world, but rather one on a wide spectrum of different ways to experience the cosmos.
Soccer Prodigy Highlight Reel
Simone is a U-14 Soccer star. This is just part of the training workout she does twice a week. One of the highlights that you will see: Dribbling a tennis ball over 30 times consecutively!
