An important mission. While I did camera work for this video, I'm not posting it for that reason.

Because news, I've been reminded frequently about shooting a series of training videos in one of the nation's few BSL-4 laboratories (the highest level, similar to that in Wuhan from whence likely escaped Covid-19). While I didn't operate in a "hot" lab, my own PPE during the shoot wasn't that far from what's depicted here. Degree of difficulty: higher than average. Used an inexpensive camera and tripod because it had to be frequently disinfected, audio slated shots via wireless lav, and couldn't cost-effectively haul in a lick of lighting. Good times. Headed up that way again tomorrow, in fact.

A little more info on our experience with the and bits n' bobs. Cliff notes: add some study handles and mount points, and a lot more bits of gear become less "essential." https://www.zacuto.com/building-a-quick-kit-with-the-sony-a7riv

Why would I choose the photographer-focused Sony A7RIV over other cameras that might deliver better paper specs for video shooters? Glad you asked…

The photo-centric 61MP A7RIV doesn't need much to be an awesome video camera... much thanks to Zacuto for letting me test (and buy) some of their essential add-ons these past few weeks. Photo by Natalee McRoberts

Recently reminded of some work we did with Bleacher Report earlier this year, shooting an interview with Andre Iguodala. I'd like to think the McBob difference is noticeable... his first appearance begins around 1:48. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khLkBmDPsek

Honored to work with The College of William & Mary earlier this year on a quick shoot and edit project to promote their College of Education. This also marked my eldest daughter's first official employment as a PA.

Today marks the passing of one of Charlottesville's greatest heroes of WW2, Carl "Chubby" Proffitt. When I first started in video, I had the honor of recording an interview with Mr. Proffitt during a reunion of his National Guard battallion. He related dodging across the field of fire of N**i MG42s with less drama than modern men might speak of beltway traffic or checkout lines at WalMart. Greatness of character is often simple and understated.

Have a few moments to review us?
http://tack.bz/WDG6

It's always nice to hear that we're doing a good job. It's also OK to hear if we've done a so-so job so that we know how to improve. If you think we're horrible evil smelly malcontents, well, then you probably haven't "liked" us and won't get this link anyway.

This is what your review page looks like. You won't be able to leave a review for yourself, but this is what people who come to this page will see (minus this notice, of course).

GH4 and C100 get along just fine, even when one of them is being thrown about on a wrestling mat.

Kevin will be filming at Duke today, with the folks at the Brain Tumor Immunotherapy Program (BTIP) for the Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE). To learn more about the research that the good people Duke's BTIP are doing, check out their website.

The essence of the Duke Brain Tumor Immunotherapy Program (BTIP) is the program projects that encompass our efforts to develop safe and effective immunologic treatments for patients with invasive brain tumors.
