Paralinx Arrow, the quest for a wireless set

Ever since shooting the first season of "Dag" (comedy-drama tv-show, now in its third season) I`ve been looking for a solution to get rid of the BNC cable. Its always getting tangeled and getting stuck somewhere. Its really not that reliable (they easily "break"), and they can even damage the camera, when people trip the cable. I know a AC, whose job it is to often setup the BNC cables to video village, who dreamt of tangeled cables strangeling him. No joke! I got Teradeks Cube a while back, and it was a mixed experience. On paper it had lots of cool functions, but it…

Season 2 with 1d Mark IV

A little over a year ago, we wrapped the first TV-series in the world shooting only on DSLRs (read more about it here and here ). A lot of research went into how to make these cameras work in a feature production pipeline. In the end, we were really happy with the results, and the audience loved it.

Shooting with D21

Acam: D21 with Optimo 24-290 Zoom and wireless Focus and Zoom from Arri: Bcam: D21 with Optimo 17-80. I just finished shooting my first week as camera operator on the very popular Norwegian children show "Captain Sabletooth" (plans to go international soon). I'm shooting again with DoP Paul Haagenrud, but this time the cameras are slightly heavier than the DSLRs of "Dag" Two Arri d21s, each with their Optimo Zoom (24-290&17-80) is a very heavy setup, and if anyone is doing anything with these lumps of metal handheld, I'd like to meet them :) But it's great fun, and it feels very cinematography to operate…
