Lyndadotcom & Adobe Photoshop Photowalk Event

Zoom. Click. Flash. That's music to this videographer's ears. And while video was not the focus of this event, I still get a rush out of hearing 150 cameras surrounding taking pics at the same time.

Now let me back up a minute and pay tribute to my Twitter feed as I found this fab event on there hosted by Lynda.com and Adobe Photoshop CS6.

Run Charles Run!

As you can imagine, things can be a tad serious and stiff when shooting a large corporate video piece. Plus, I find that in order to loosen things up a little and help people feel a tad more comfortable in front of the camera, sometimes, you just have to mix things up.  So, when this big-time, post-Harvard VP of a large international technology company (Alcatel-Lucent) uttered the phrase, "Wouldn't it be funny if..."  I was game! So, when we cued the slate and I said 'Action!' the fun began! Watch the pre & post videos for yourself. Still makes us laugh Every.Single.Time!
