#Repost really unique opportunity working around lasers for the @clevelandbrowns If you’ve been to any of the games recently you’ve probably seen it.

Big thanks to Director @barryandersson & DP @tmhigginsdp for bringing me out! Barry and Travis were fantastic collaborators and made this job particularly enjoyable.

Aside from the cool effects and collaboration a lot of work went into making sure we did this safely with strict zones that we called “camera safe” and great communication with @iamthelaser the laser tech and his great team.

Working on this series has been a great experience

Working on this series has been a great experience @tylerclarkdp @vsjulien_ & @v1justen have been the best collaborators over the 3 x episodes we made for this series. Definitely some of my favorite camerawork I’ve done so far.

This final scene in episode 3 plays out almost entirely in an orbit and we had a great time working with the actors and camera team getting everything to time out just right so we all were hitting our marks at the same time. Thankful for the cast and crew we had on this especially @mikebc2 always nailing focus.

Reflecting on 30 years. I couldn’t be more fortunate with two beautiful children an incredible wife, family and a career that I love. It’s taken every minute of the last tens years to build this life and wouldn’t trade it for the world. Thanks to all the amazing people I’m lucky to share my life with and thanks for all the love and birthday wishes. Here’s to the beginning of another decade 🍻🎉🥳🍾
