There’s a new Franklin Springs DVD taking shape at the moment…

The recipe calls for it to come out of the oven in 4-6 weeks…

More Camera Fun…

Tuesday, July 8, 2008

We shot another piece for the Gideons last week, this time for their Auxiliary…


We pitched them on having principal talent “floating” in front of a row of other talent in the background.  They said yes; then we had to figure out how to execute the shot.  So we laid two sets of dolly track, putting the camera on one dolly, and the featured talent on the other….

We then lined up the other talent in the background…



And to assure a smooth and consistent move, we tethered the two dollies together…

It was a complicated move, but it gave the dolly grips the best chance of helping us to deliver the shot we needed…

Stay tuned for more cinema tips and techniques in our forthcoming Young Filmmakers DVD.

Transition Years…

Wednesday, July 2, 2008

He donned his office attire, joined his father for a day of work at Franklin Springs, and even accompanied him for afternoon coffee (decaf, of course)...

But within minutes of returning home, Bennett came around the corner, having stepped fully back into the adventurous world of a nine year old boy…

Throw in a few chores around the farm, family worship, and play time with his siblings, and hopefully young master Bennett experienced one more good day of preparation for the years ahead…
