ASW 2025 Bay Area Edition was one to remember.

🙏🏽 Thank you to all the folks that believed in me & allowed me to participate doing what I do best.

Looking forward to SB 26’

Progression brings Perspective & these days, I’m finding appreciation in the little things.
I’ve spent the last two years dialing in my creative toolkit & the Mini Lock by @kondorblue has been a very welcome addition for my camera builds lately.

Buy once…cry once. 😢 @smallhd Ultra 5

After a couple years of running an Atomos Ninja V as my on-camera & wireless monitor solution, it was about time to upgrade. I had a couple “wants” in my replacement.

I absolutely needed a slim design (compared to the Ninja V’s bulky af SDI solution), SDI/HDMI loop out, functional focus peaking, and as many NITs as possible.

Enter the @smallhd Ultra series. Adding the Ultra 5 & Ultra 7 to my arsenal & retiring my Ninja V’s to backup/multicam monitors was one of the best decisions I could have made a couple months ago. Having SmallHD’s selective focus peaking (where only the part “in-focus” appears sharper on the monitor) saved me countless times on the back-to-back docs I’ve worked over the past few months. Camera control & 3000nits have just been the icing on top.

Now that I’m finally back to the homeland, I’m looking forward to updating to Page OS 6 & hopefully rocking with these as my main monitors for the next few years!

What’s your dream monitor in 2025?

Had to level up my direct storage solutions with the Express 4M2 @poweredbyowc

Typically I only shoot between 2-4 TBs per project which lets me comfortably operate with your typical external ssd. But 16+ TBs of data called for a better solution.

And yes I know…proxies. But the way I operate, I’d rather have a copy of all the footage with me. Plus once this edit is wrapped I’ll be able to keep a couple projects on a single drive!

If anyone’s found a better solution, lemme know in the comments!

Took some product focused shots of the DJI Pocket Osmo 3 before we start mounting it to cars & bikes.

Have you tried the Pocket Osmo 3?

🎥 Big cameras are amazing but sometimes the small ones can pack a punch also 👊🏽

Going to be testing out the @djiglobal Osmo Pocket 3 over the next couple weeks to see how it fits in the workflow as a specialty cam, BTS cam and possibly A cam.

Have you used or tried the Osmo Pocket 3? Curious to hear who feels like they’re getting the max out of this sensor and their preferred workflow!

Digging through the archives here.
I captured all of these clips on a tech scout in Sacramento a couple months back. It’s always interesting grading clips shot at the absolute worst time of the day in terms of lighting but l love making the most of whatever I have. Kept it clean for this set…no grain…no halation…no depth mapping. Well, aside from the lil easter egg I threw in there to spice things up. Shout out to @pixelpancho for the canvas to create with & enjoy these choppy zooms & this entire sequence. If you read this far…leave me a comment letting me know what you think 🙏🏽

🔨a quick timelapse of the test build 🔧

I've been using the @tiltamax Hydra paired with the @djiglobal RS2 Pro quite a bit lately. Once you get things dialed, it's the closest thing to smooth sailing for simple rollers & basic rigging without breaking the bank. Looking forward to testing the updated Hydra Alien Pro in the near future! 👀 @tiltamax

Don't worry, never flying without rachet straps + more.

keep building 🤝🏽 keep going

Got to work with @gabriellathemanager to help elevate some social media assets for @devillemovie

Here’s:
1. An early draft that got shelved in favor of a more appropriately lit stock asset.
2. All of the final assets comped & edited by @gabriellathemanager
3. A clean version of the intro animation
4. A quick peek into the AE project I built the animation components in

It was a fun process to be able to take an idea from concept to delivery while working on a crunched timeline and limited assets.

Shoutout to the entire team for getting the film this far! 👏🏽👏🏽 Looking forward to the world getting to see it and its festival run.

BTS Doc on the way. Go sign up for the newsletter and stay tuned!
