I had the extreme pleasure to be hired by Bottle Rocket Media to shoot a super fun American Girl commercial a few months ago. The commercial is finished and went live today on YouTube. While I had a blast working on this project as the Director of Photography, you’re really only as good as the crew you hire to work beside you. So here come mad props to my great camera crew.
To my 1st AC Jason Mitchneck. Thanks for keeping all those pretty images in focus, especially that iPad! (God knows Dan Fisher appreciates it)
To Steadicam Operator Tom Szlarksi, thank you for the long day of back breaking work. You made my job even easier since I didn’t have to actually touch the camera on this shoot.
To my Camera PA/ GRIP and doppelgänger, Mr. Emmanuel Davis. Your positive attitude on set Is always a pleasure as was your music selection between takes.
Last but not least, the man, the myth, the legend, Mr. Jose Rivas!You’re a jack of all trades, a mind reader I’m pretty sure, and a hell of a worker. I’m pretty sure you’d do anything I ask and that’s pretty amazing.
Oh….and of course, to my bosses, Mr. Dan Fisher and Mr. Brett Singer of Bottle Rocket Media, thanks for trusting me with such a big project. You guys are truly the best as what you do!
