Latest Real Estate Video

Real Estate video shoot at the newly renovated Gateway apartment complex in Columbia, MO last week.

New videos from Digital HQ

I've produced a set of videos over the last few years for Old Standard Wood, a company based in Fulton, MO that supplies musical instrument wood all over the world. The goal of the videos was to outline what Old Standard has to offer and give people a sense of the business. Because these are mostly information-based videos, they are very straightforward and news-like, without basically any camera or editing effects. The exception are the two "web promos" we also shot. They are a bit faster-paced and utilized some unique tracking shots that we achieved by using a construction grade Caterpillar forklift that would extend 20 feet into the air! (Picture me hanging from the forklift in the air shooting with my camera.) The shots surprisingly turned out great and gave the video a nice big-budget look. Now if I could only figure out a way to have a forklift on one of my wedding shoots...

Sigma Kappa Philanthropy Video

Day 2 of a 3 day shoot at the University of Missouri here in Columbia for a Sigma Kappa philanthropy video.

May at Digital HQ...

May is now upon us, and it is officially the busiest month in the history of Digital HQ! On tap for this month: 2 sorority philanthropy videos, 2 weddings, 1 school concert, 2 school graduations, 1 real estate video, 1 Chamber of Commerce community video, and 1 rock show at Mojo's. If you see a guy walking around town with a video camera this month, chances are it's probably me...

Fulton, MO Corporate Shoot

Headed east last week to do Part 1 of a 4-part shoot for the Fulton, MO Chamber of Commerce at the beautiful Winston Churchill Memorial. This building is really magnificent, and is a wonderful setting for wedding ceremonies as well. I've had the honor of shooting a few wedding videos there in the past, and it provides such a dramatic and interesting backdrop for any event. Anyway, the weather was perfect outside, so I snapped a quick shot of the building as I was packing up my gear.

Fitness Video Shoot

Had the pleasure of working with my friend Johnny Eaker, who owns and operates J Andrew Photo Design a few weeks back. Johnny is producing a series of fitness videos about a great new product called the Rock 360, designed by former MU football star Tommy Saunders. We did a very cool 3 camera shoot with Tommy into the wee hours of the morning at the Arc Recreation Center here in Columbia. Here's an earlier promo produced by Johnny for the same series of videos.

Corporate Medical Video

Here's a corporate video I produced earlier this summer for Arasan, an EMS product company based out of Ashland, MO.

Shots from the studio!

Here's some shots from a shoot that I did in June at Art Smith's studio here in Columbia, MO. He has a really great facility, and it proved to be the perfect setting for this corporate video shoot. The final video is almost complete, so look for it soon on the blog!

Bleu Restaurant Promo

These shots were taken during a shoot last week at the newly relocated Bleu Restaurant and Wine Bar here in Columbia, MO. Beautiful spring day and the place looks great!

MFA Oil Promo

Headed to Pilot Grove, MO last week to shoot footage for an MFA Oil promo. They were planting crops for their new Biomass fuel and wanted some of the action captured on video. So I headed out to the middle of the field, armed with my camera, and started rolling. Beautiful day, but the winds were something else. Here's a couple stills I pulled from the video.

Tiger Express Promo

Headed to south Columbia this afternoon for a video shoot at Tiger Express Car Wash. This is another promo I'm shooting for Media Outlook and the PumpTop Network. What a beautiful day! So hard to believe it's February 1st in Missouri!

Old Standard Wood Web Promo

Old Standard Wood Web Promo 2011 from Digital Headquarters on Vimeo.

I'm very excited about this latest web promo produced for Old Standard Wood of Fulton, MO. We did a relatively lengthy shoot over several days time throughout last year, and numerous videos are going to come out of the footage. This is the first finished promo from the shoot and features some exciting camerawork that I'm really proud of. As you watch the promo, notice the "floating camera" effect that is utilized in many of the shots. To achieve this look, we utilized the large Caterpillar Telehandler that you see moving logs in the video. The machine has very sophisticated hydraulics and a boom arm that extends up to 30 feet in the air! Needless to say, I was perched on the end of the arm, way up in the air, camera rolling, and loving every minute of it! I'm very proud of how this promo came out, and look for several other videos from the same session in the coming weeks.

Happy New Year!

Ending 2011 tonight with a video shoot at Columbia, MO's own Whiskey Wild Saloon. 2000 people and a mechanical bull? Sounds like an interesting shoot to me...

Special thanks to Collin and Daylon from Media Outlook and the PumpTop Network for working with me on this project. Happy New Year everyone. Looking forward to 2012!

Law Lecture Shoot

I just finished editing the corporate video I shot last week for a company out of New York City called LLM Bar Exam. The law lecture that I recorded was done locally here in Columbia at the University of Missouri Law School. The DVD's in the mail, and I'm moving on to other projects. Look for a very cool web promo I shot for Old Standard Wood to be posted on the blog very soon!
