Square iPhone Payment System (Video)

Here’s a quick video demo of the Square iPhone Payment System that I shot and edited last weekend with Kevin Rose. We used his Canon 5D Mark II for the shoot, and I was stunned with the results. It’s safe to say that I’ll be getting a HD DSLR very soon.

A Totally Rad time at Comic Con 2009

Last year I was lucky enough to run into the guys from TRS, having been a fan of theirs for a while. But this year, being a Rev3 intern and all, I had the opportunity to help shoot the live Totally Rad Show Comic Con panel. I was the “B Camera” which went in for all of the close-up shots. I had an awesome time helping out, and hanging out with the guys. Mike Gaines also did a fantastic job on the edit. Check out the episode below!

Internet Television

My first day at Revision3 was yesterday, May 18th. I can already tell that I’m going to love it here this summer. Yesterday was mainly a ‘learning’ day. I spent time getting set up with my e-mail account, learning my way around the servers, and watching a few of the other editors work their magic. I also sat in the studio while they shot this coming week’s Tekzilla. (See Below).

Today (Day 2) was completely different. I jumped in head first and started to edit next week’s TekZilla Dailies when Mau (one of the staff editors) came by and asked me to do some edits to this week’s Diggnation (#203).

The edits were quick and it didn’t take me long, but the second task was to censor out some nudity in one of the videos that Kevin and Alex discussed in the episode, this ended up being pretty tedious–requiring a lot of tracking and rendering.

Lastly, the guys just got confirmation that they’re doing a live Diggnation in New York on June 4th, and I created a quick info billboard in Motion with a VO from Alex that plays just before the episode starts.

The office/studio was really busy today because Kevin and Alex were shooting next week’s Diggnation in the studio (Kevin and Alex hung around the office, too which was cool!) And then at 5pm Kevin and Jay went live with the Digg Town-hall in the studio.

All in all a pretty productive day. I almost hate that I have the day off tomorrow because I was just starting to get into a rhythm; I wanted to stay in later to finish-up the Tekzilla dailies!

Thanks for following!

New SkyNext Intro

I lent my voice to the new SkyNext Podcast intro. We were trying to closely replicate the opening voice-over from the show to fit the podcast. I felt it turned out pretty good! Listen below:
