Facebook reminded me this was 17 years ago. Shot on a Sony EX-1. Now that I own an arsenal of RED cameras it makes me want to get back to narratives.

If Apple is going to start separating the update features of what versions of Final Cut Pro editors receive based on who has the full version vs subscribers then I might have to start transitioning to DaVinci, which I already have the full studio version of, much sooner.

I’m not sure how I feel about directors of documentary films injecting themselves as main subjects. In Icarus, the director is documenting his journey and stumbles into something bigger but in You Can See Everything the director comes across as a lead opposite the subject.

I don’t film at 24mm and crop in post. I don’t film at f8/11 where everything is in focus. I film near f2.8 or faster. I also pull focus manually for sports. However, I constantly remind myself, “They don’t pay you to miss” and to “aim small, miss small.”

If you really want to challenge yourself, pull focus for all sports events at f2.8 because your RED is telling you your underexposed in nearly all high school settings. I've also done it at T1.5 earlier in my career.

I’m incredibly fortunate year in and year out to be able to capture Homecoming Week at Lincoln-Way West. It’s such a fun week with a heavy dose of school spirit that helps make my job so easy to capture. Thank you for another great week LWW. 🙏🏻
Some moments feel like a movie. 🎥🧡✨
We can’t thank @DeSandoLLC enough for once again turning our Homecoming memories into something we can watch over and over again.

After tonight I've learned that at some point f1.2 lenses will need to be in my kit. You'd think f1.8 is fast enough until it isn't.
