Sydney by iPhone…
On a recent scouting expedition (by bicycle) I forwent the heavy camera and snapped away on my phone, then using Chase Jarvis’ bestcam app did some tweaking (ok alot of tweaking).
Here’s the results…

AMSA Convention Teaser
15 Minutes of Footage, 350+ Edit Points, A Glidecam Rig, and one epic track…
The 52nd Annual Australian Medical Students’ Association (AMSA) National Convention in Sydney, 2011.
www.convention2011.amsa.org.au | 03 July 2011 – 10 July 2011 | Promotion Video #1.
Global Health Conference
The brief was simple enough:
Engage the audience, highlight the issues, and generate interest in the 2011 AMSA Global Health Conference in Sydney.
Oh, and please don’t make a boring slideshow.
After throwing around a whole range of ideas, the final plan was to combine animated visuals with real footage shot in Sydney to draw the audience in, then tear away the world as they know it. Shoot through a series of issues based statistics, aiming for a state of information overload. Finally, tie it all back to the Sydney Conference, whilst emphasising the global nature of the problems. All in a minute and a half.
*Edit: This is the updated version of the video that added information about the conference.
As yet unnamed string quartet…
I guess this is what you call a ‘mixed media’ project. I was asked to produce a single shot video of a performance of Shostakocivh’s String Quartet No 3, for entry into a competition (hence the unedited single shot) and promotional material. This presented few challenges, in contrast to previous video work, except for the question of how to record audio.
Thankfully the two hour rehearsal left me with plenty of time to adjust levels and microphone location, and some time for portraits.

Wedding – Cam and Jane
Sometimes it’s inevitable that something interesting will happen, this was’t a unique day in that regard. Cam Hollows and Jane Mckenzie were married on Shark Island, in the middle of Sydney Harbour. Every couple is unique, every wedding special, yet I think this wedding will linger in the minds of those who attended for a long time. It was a location not to be forgotten, even in the stifling heat and direct sun.

But it’s not going to be the location the guests will remember this wedding for, but the exact moment, as bride and groom approached the cake cutting, the wind picked up everything on the island, blowing it down, around and upside down. Storm clouds rolled in, the horizon growing darker, and the city disappeared from view as dust was blown across the island, coating the guests. One would have expected this bridal nightmare to indelibly scar the party, yet there wasn’t a frown to be seen. Wide eyed with broad grins the bride and groom were elbow deep in the cleanup, guests rallying around them. As the packing up drew near completion the final ferry arrived, and with it the rain…

Short Film – A trail of twenty pieces…
“A trail of twenty pieces…” was written and produced for the inaugural Concord Hospital short film festival, Confest 2009 which it later won. A big thanks goes to everyone involved, as cinematography really is a team effort.
Overland Track – Day Eight
Tormented by the guide book, we took to the trail on the final morning determined to cover the last 18km that separated us from hot chips and beer. A slight miscalculation that heaped all our trail mix in one bag, the absence of a spot for lunch and a bitingly cold wind driving up the pace in a bid to keep warm conspired to cause two hypos, and tarnish what was a beautiful day… Divine intervention came late that night in Hobart, in the form of a pizza delivery man…
