Camera/Steadicam Operator on “Source” Short film on the Redone.

Director: Will Simmons

Director of Photography: David Kruta

Just wrapped the short film “Source” as the “A” Camera/Steadicam Operator. It was a quick 5 days of production, but 1st AC Teresa Rhinehart and I had our work cut out, as Dave had us shooting wide open at T1.8 for the entire shoot.

It was my first time flying the red with the pro primes, found them to be a pretty nice lens. To get weight down for my lightweight rig, I had to strip down the normal camera build to just the red body with red pro primes, element technica b.o.b., aja down-converter, bartech receiver w/ m-one lens motor, and additional lighweight v-mount battery with p-tap out to power the bartech.

Steadicam Operator: Jeff Melanson, 1st AC: Teresa Rhinehart.

more info about the shoot, coming soon..
