Here’s a particularly interesting motion edit I completed recently. As you may know, I am a cineflex operator working mostly with ZatzWorks here in Alaska. This footage that Daniel Zatz came home from Canada with was just too strange. I had fun putting this short edit together, hope you enjoy. (more…)
With so few roads, getting around Alaska requires a bit of creativity. This was a fine idea introduced to us by our friend Jeff Hoke – a round trip that involved trains one way and a mild whitewater SUP the other way.

The cineflex is most often used for shooting ultra smooth aerial video – think Planet Earth series, or for snowboard fans – Art of Flight. More on this technology coming in another post. For now, I have some exciting news to share. (more…)
