I was born at a young age in Dublin, Ireland. Came to New York City with a rock band and big dreams. Ditched the music world after 12 years and took up painting. Then designed and built Web sites. Got a graphic design job in Seattle. Got interested in motion graphics and then discovered video.

    Because I shot it to remind myself of my trip. Presenting it here is just sharing my own memories. The fact that my camera was almost submerged made my heart almost stop. I had to put it in there because it was very much part of the experience :)

    Yes, I'm well acquainted with the variety of bokeh out there. There is a distinct difference between the Ultimate and the Extreme.

    Anyway, it is all subjective...I like it.

    I'll have to strongly disagree with you about the bokeh.

    I'm actually quite close because all of these animals are in my backyard and are very used to us being around. The longest lens I have is 200mm which I used for the ducklings and the geese.

    Yeah, it elevates mundane shots for sure :)

    Nice shots...I really like the gently blowing curtains...did you use some kind of diffusion effect? The footage has a kind of Magic Bullet look to it.

    Thank you Ana...I will continue to shoot until I am not able anymore...which I hope will be a good number of years from now :)

    Your responses are entertaining :) I mean that as a compliment.

    Being a good cinematographer is not enough these days. There is a lot of hustling involved in making steady money and I tried it and it was too much, too stressful. I have a family to support so I can't take too much risk at this point.

    I have actually worked on a lot of projects that I haven't posted because I don't have permission.

    I recently shot a documentary for the Seattle International Film Festival which was shown on the big screen...that was a thrill and the Canon XHA1 held up very well. I've also done some corporate stuff.

    What I post here is usually my own indulgence.

    I'd like to see the video you shot with the DVX 100, the title of the video is Brackenridge, I think.
    Great videos, man.

    hey man, just have a short question? have u been shooting any drama short films lately? cheers

  • Andy Lunn 2 months ago

    Hi Steven. Some great Stuff on here. I was a fellow member on the canoncinema forums before they down the pan. I too have the xlh1, I know you now have the a1 instead.

    I wanted ask you a couple of things.

    .) On your outside scene shooting, do you use the infinity setting on the lens?

    .) Do you still have you disjecta setting for the xlh1? have you updated it?

    Keep at it, great stuff.

    I notice the ratio of this Postcards from the Road is different from the other videos. How did you do this when most others seem to be 16x9.. Also how did you get the vibrant color in the shot of the light house ... All of your videos are great...

  • Jimmy Swift 3 months ago

    Steven,
    I am curious to see if the XHA1 with the letus attached would work on the Steadicam Merlin. Do have any experience with it? It works great with the stock XHA1 but i think the added weight would throw it off. Im asking as i would like to find a good streadicam system, the Merlin looks great but. Any thoughts?

  • Ed Reid 3 months ago

    Ok here's an idea:
    How about you make a video on the scummiest worst industrial place you can find, like abandoned factories, old flats, rotting houses, you get my drift. I think it would be interesting and if you film it at the right time (lets say muggy) it would somehow make the place not look so bad. I'll look forward to it:)
