Hey guys, here's some recent work we've shot over past 5 months!
We've been shooting A LOT - almost every week - and quitting my job and focusing on Small Giant has def been a great decision!
This is just a small sample of our work this year, but there are some fun ones. All shot on Epic Dragons, almost always with Contax primes/zooms. All dailies grades by Jake Blacksone!
Enjoy!

AMERICAN ORIGINALS - DUNKIN' DONUTS
A branded piece for History. The Dunkin shots were shot on a Contax 28-85 and 100-300.
The 100-300 is an AMAZING piece of glass. Amazing.

VIKINGS S4 - INSIDE THE EPISODES
Also for History, we shot the interviews with Michael Hirst, creator of Vikings. Shot on Contax primes - I believe the 50mm and 100mm f2 (MM's). We used Black Pro Mist 1/8 or 1/4, to match exactly the diffusion they use on the show.

CHILD GENIUS S2 - SHORTFORM
Shot this for Lifetime, with Tungsten lighting. Shot on Contax 50mm and 100mm as well. This clip is one of many.
This shoot is what made us realize that our Tungsten shooting could improve with 80C filters.

truTV "Is a Thing" w/ IMPRACTICAL JOKERS
One of 25 spots we shot as part of their "truTV Its a thing" campaign. This is my fave. The Jokers are SO FUN to work with!!!

SHORE FLIP w/ Snooki
We shot this for FYI. Snooki was a blast to work with. Shot on a Standard Prime 24mm, and a Contax 85mm 1.4 (MM). Not sure which take plate they went with for this GFX spot:

EDUCATIONAL Hip Hop
We shot 10 music videos like this - super fun, great for kids. I believe we used both our short Contax zooms - the 35-70, and 28-85. The Contax 16 fisheye was used at the top.

A+E AWARD TAPE
We interviewed the top 10 exects at A+E, including the CEO...for an award tape. All interviews shot on Contax 85mm and 135 2.8 (great lens!). Shot with Digital FX 1/4 or a 1/2 - a great, clean diffusion.
