Once again we are teaming up with Bump Films to shoot MasterCraft’s yearly DVD “Rewind”. This season we’re using a PS Technik 35mm adapter on our Panasonic HPX-500 to utilize Zeiss Super Speed prime lenses for our studio shoot.

We took the new MasterCraft 300 to a U.T. football game, one of two universities that you can actually drive your boat to the stadium, (University of Washington is the other). Shooting a standup at the in the tailgate area. The fans are rabid at U.T.!


We were lucky enough to tag along with the Nutt family for the game. They have three Skyboxes on the 50 yard line. This is the way to watch a football game!

This was our final shoot for Vail Corp. for the season. They also own Heavenly at Tahoe as part of their resort portfolio. After various reschedules due to bad weather, (read: killer powder…), we got a window to go down and finish up.

This is our fourth season shooting for MTEK Studios on Malibu Boats promotional DVD. Recent years were shot with Hi-Speed Arri SR cameras but this year our extensive work with Panasonic’s P2 format convinced MTEK shoot on our Panasonic HPX-500 camera and HVX-200 for “B” camera and water housing shots.

This is Bump Films second season working with Rob May at Regal.

Sunrise or Sunset?

Our heli pilot, Preston, always puts us in the zone.

Another day in paradise, (sort of…)

This is not a boat, its a yacht!
