Hello! Thanks for visiting my NEWS page. I started a BLOG and will be discussing in greater detail some of the projects that I normally mention here. You can view my BLOG HERE.

 

2024 NEWS

 

February 2024

I had a blast shooting in my old stompin’ grounds on the Outer Banks this week. Even with the temps hovering around 40 degrees and the winds gusting to 50-70mph, it felt like being home. I have shot a few pilots for reality shows in the past, but I have extremely high hopes for this one. Thanks to everyone involved for making this a really fun experience. Check out my blog post about it HERE.

 

January 2024

January started off with a bang and I jumped right into a couple of projects for local non-profits here in the Wilmington, North Carolina area. The first was a really beautiful survivor tribute for the Cape Fear Chapter of the American Heart Association which you can view HERE.

The second was a powerful, heartbreaking, yet ultimately triumphant short film for Carousel Child Advocacy Center which serves about 500 abused and neglected children in our area every year. You can view "Emma" HERE.

NEW NIKON Z9!

Last year, a colleague of mine who now works @nikonusa called and asked if I would be interested in trying out one of their cinema cameras and some lenses. As a loyal, longtime Sony owner/operator I was a bit skeptical, but definitely intrigued. He sent me their flagship model #nikonZ9, and two S-Line lenses: a 24-70/2.8 and an 85/1.2. I will be implementing all three into my workflow this year and will be writing and reporting on the results here and on my website. Thank you to Javier Storch at Nikon for the opportunity!

 

My good friend Darwin Brandis (@brandicular) has developed a cutting-edge product photography system that institutes a video background and an oscillating camera arm. The result is this mesmerizing effect which we enhanced with @quasarscience tubes. I have no doubt that Darwin’s invention will revolutionize the product photography world! We shot this video of my new Z9 with Darwin's Z7 and I think the results speak for themselves!

Fall 2023 Updates

 

December 2023

I had the distinct pleasure of shooting an interview with legendary sportscaster Jim Lampley this week for an upcoming documentary. Mr. Lampley is a national treasure - a passionate and incredibly intelligent man who has witnessed some of the most important sporting and cultural events in history. It was great to get my hands on the Arri Amira again for this project and I would like to thank Live Star entertainment for the opportunity. 

10.9.23: Hello! I took a long break from updating this site, primarily because this has been a busy year both professionally and personally.

 

I frequently work in the film industry, so 2023 has been an unusual period of time because of the WGA and SAG strikes. I know a lot of my union brothers and sisters have been hurting, and I hope for a speedy and positive end to the ongoing SAG strike.

 

Nevertheless, this past Spring and Summer brought some exciting and interesting projects and I am grateful for all of them. Here's a list of the highlights:

Aesculap Corporate Videos May 2023

Aesculap manufactures and develops 3D robotic surgical microscopes. Earlier this year, they hired me as Director of Photography to shoot two surgeries at Novant New Hanover Regional Medical Center here in Wilmington, NC. I shot both surgeries on one day and it was quite an experience! The first surgery was a brain tumor removal and the second was a carotid endarterectomy. The Aesculap EOS Microscope is controlled by foot pedal by the surgeon, and it projects a 3D image to several monitors around the room. The entire surgical staff watches the surgery while wearing specialized 3D glasses. I had to undergo a rigorous screening process by Green Security in order work in the OR, including a comprehensive vaccination process, background checks and online training. Super cool project!

The Economist, September 2023

The Economist is a British weekly newspaper printed in demitab format and published digitally. It focuses on current affairs, international business, politics, technology, and culture. I was honored to be tapped to serve as Director of Photography for an "Economist Impact" mini-documentary about Charlotte, NC-based software developer RXO and their IT consultants, InfoSys. Infosys Limited is an Indian multinational information technology company that provides business consulting, information technology and outsourcing services.

The Cameron Team "Brunswick County Tour", April 2023 - July 2023

I have had the good fortune of working with Melanie Cameron and her incredible team of real estate professionals for several years now. This year, Melanie tasked me with shooting a comprehensive video tour of Brunswick County, NC's red-hot real estate market. Using drones, Sony video cameras, GoPros and even iPhones, we captured the essence of Brunswick County's beaches, golf courses and most popular neighborhoods.

 

Brunswick County is the fastest growing county in the state of North Carolina and one of the fastest growing in the country. People interested in moving to the North Carolina Coast should do themselves a favor and visit www.TheCameronTeam.net for the best information available about the local market.

We won the Greensboro, NC 48-hour Film Project!!! July 2023

The 48-Hour Film Project is a travelling film contest that challenges teams to write, produce, cast, shoot, edit and submit a completed film in 48 hours. The topic of the film is generally unknown up until the release of the genre/topic/style reveal at the start of the contest. We pulled together a semi-ragtag crew of *mostly* inexperienced (though eager and enthusiastic) like-minded folks to create "Squeaky Clean", and we won! As Director of Photography, there were a lot of things I would have done differently under normal circumstances, but I am really proud of what a group of strangers were able to pull together in just two days.

 

"Squeaky Clean" will next be shown at Filmapalooza in Lisbon, Portugal in March 2024. Watch "Squeaky Clean" here.

Always Outdoors/Sodexo Shoot, August 2023

I am grateful for the opportunity to serve as Director of Photography for Sodexo USA via their Portland, OR-based advertising agency, Always Outdoors. Sodexo is one of the world's leading sustainable food service companies operating in 53 countries with 422,000 employees serving 100 million consumers each day. 

Gumball Poodle Socks, September 2023

Gumball Poodle makes the world's coolest socks! Bright colors, amazing quality, fun and funky designs are the trademarks of the Gumball Poodle brand. I am lucky to have a good friend on the inside with the mad scientists at Gumball Poodle, and I had the opportunity to serve as Director of Photography and camera operator for a really funny commercial for them. I'll post the finished project as soon as they're finished baking it!

 

PADI Certified SCUBA Diver, August 2023

I got my Open Water re-certification this past summer, and had such a great experience that I decided to also get PADI Advanced Open Water and Nitrox certifications as well. We have great diving off of the North Carolina coast, aka "The Graveyard of the Atlantic" because of the myriad shipwrecks just off the coast. I am hoping to use these new certifications to capture underwater footage of our manmade and wreck reefs. 

 

Winter 2023 Updates

Grateful to start off the year with the opportunity to be a camera operator on a Paramount+ feature film. Fans of the Nickelodeon series "Zoey 101" will love this film starring Jamie Lynn Spears.
