Introduction: My videos stand out because I adhere to the film and television truism of "...The best shooting and editing goes unnoticed...", which is to say we want people to watch the video fully, to the very end, and receive it's messages, without noticing things like "...that shot should have been on a tripod!...", or "...the music is too loud...", or "...did you see that!?! you can see the photographer in the mirror over that lady's shoulder!...". My videos also have a high shot count. I nuance that video with transition shots, tight shots, telephoto, wide, high, and low angle shot, and just the right combination of shoulder shots to tripod shots.
My videos are also peppered with generous use of natural sound. For example if we're doing a story in your kitchen, you're going to be able to hear the bacon and eggs frying in the pan. At your social gathering guitars, voices, laughing and clapping will be heard. When your daughter spikes that volleyball into her opponents face, you're going hear that "pop!" of her hand on the ball and the corresponding "smack" of it's impact.
Finally, with every frame of dead air removed from the final video, the only exception being a necessary technique used to let the video "breathe", my videos enjoy a seamlessness that ensures watchability from the first frame to the last. I simply allow nothing to distract from the video itself: The best shooting and editing goes unnoticed. Count on it.
I've just got to say that I love all of it. I love lighting. I love wireless microphones. I love little secret cameras. I love my big cameras with big telephoto lenses. I love writing. I love editing. I love the entire process. Perhaps what I like most of all seeing tears of joy streaming down my clients faces when they see their mastered video (yes that happens occasionally).
