Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)
a few additions to the MammothHD Library (8K and 6K originals)
I started a little project of shooting with the Laowa 24mm macro/probe lens on Monstro... here's the 1st set - a Birdbath set/stage built on my deck...
American Robin
here's a sample featuring a Red-Breasted Nuthatch

the birdbath set is just 18"x18" in a shallow pan
--
also have been working on a series on CU flowers in 8K
--
working thru the newly submitted African Wildlife footge of Rob Hofmeyr - here's a just a sampling...... all shot 6K on Dragon.
will posting more of Rob's work shortly as I finish working thru all the files!
--
on my Coddiwomple Project - been adding material from my abstract illustration phase....
--
lots more in production and edit/prep - so should be posting more soon.
Whenever I see your stuff, Clark, it takes my breath away. What fabulous images.
And, congrats on your move to Montana. A couple of years ago I visited my son who lived in Whitefish at the time. What an incredibly beautiful part of the country!!!
Heya Frederic - great to see you on the forum! thanks

a couple of frame grabs from a new project on 'Cedar Waxwings' - 8K-VV shot with the Sigma 150-600 with a 2x extender so most fo the time I'm working at around 1000mm. 24p project with frame rates ranging from 30 to 60fps. Should add that most of this the ISO was rated at either 1600 or 2000 - due to the cloud cover, over crank and rain...
every now and again I try to show the diverse collection we have in the MammothHD Libraries... so here's a new and very simplified mini-poster featuring 98% RED footage ranging from the early days of REDOne (2007) up to Monstro this last week or so... with a few other 4K clips mixed in....
...and a new side project for my explorations is night skies 'astro' images and time lapses... this is a staggered stack where the star trails build over the clip duration... (shot on the Nikon Z6)
I final got around to starting a Instagram acct. for misc updates to what MammothHD and I are up too - if you'd like to follow along here's the link to the page Instagram/ClarkDunbar
on another note... RED just featured one of my new shooting projects on their Instagram page (Instagram/RED) - if you want to check it out and follow along...
Truk Lagoon/Macronesia 'The Ghost Fleet' -> New additions (and still in edit prep as I work thru all the raw footage) shot 8K Helium by Tom Campbell earlier this year...
a few frame grabs... of interior/exterior of the ships and warplanes in the Lagoon.
well been a interesting winter so far... moved the MammothHD Footage Library (mammothhd.com) to new secured server (which when uploading from western Montana - Takes a long time!) and shooting new material while adding new submissions to our galleries. Have also taken on a few assignments for a few very specific projects that need 8K as their final delivery.
So - New Additions to the MammothHD Library
Glacier Nat'l Park (8K) - this was shot last week (early spring weather)
vs a good snow shower the week earlier (8K)
Australia Underwater (5K)
and more African Wildlife
Jaguar hunting in 6K
and Lions in 8K
--
...lots more in the edit/prep pipeline - so should be a busy spring.
...while everyone one is starting to watch the industry go into a holding pattern on productions.. busy adding new 8K footage to the MammothHD Galleries. ..and with an expected slow down - will be spending a bit more time in the wilds locally working on new western Montana landscapes and wildlife - along with a bit of time working on my desktop macro series.

and African Wildlife - Kenya and South Africa - shot on 8K Helium

So lots in the backlog that we're working on to get prepped and into the galleries... and new material in production.
Hope all are well and that this adventure we are currently dealing with is short lived and we all get back to a closer to normal world.
an unexpected addition to the MammothHD Footage Libraries - CoronaVirus/Covid-19 Pandemic Series/Empty Cities... we start with Las Vegas.
If you've shot any of this dreadful and historic event anywhere around the world - and would like to join the MammothHD Library - contact me. We've had requests from aerials of empty freeways to lone delivery trucks on the road or at loading docks, medical staff, essential workers, social distancing, etc.
Empty Cities - Las Vegas (Gemini)
Will be adding more to the galleries as footage submissions arrive...
