Change, Flux, Reinvention

By Jon Roemer On 26 Jan ’12 · 2 Comments

It’s a weird time – I just redid my people print portfolio, first time in years. Yet, last fall was dominated by video work. So, as I redo books (architecture is next) I’m also thinking about video, cameras both still and video, upgrade paths, compromises, choices and where best to allocate resources.

My still cameras, [...]

In the Jungle, the Mighty Jungle

By Jon Roemer On 18 Dec ’11 · Leave a Comment

Friday night, somewhat on a whim, I decided to upgrade my Mac Pro to Mac OS X 10.7 Lion. Lest that seem haphazard or foolhardy it wasn’t quite that spontaneous. A Mac Pro has four drive bays and I always have a full clone of my primary HD with the OS. I also made sure [...]

The Crane Life

By Jon Roemer On 9 Dec ’11 · 1 Comment

A month ago in The Cranes and Me I posted stills from my work documenting a construction project in Manhattan. Here is a short video made from the time lapses produced that day:

I set up two cameras to shoot the time lapse sequences and they were used in two different locations. This [...]

Psst, Psst… HISP

By Jon Roemer On 8 Dec ’11 · Leave a Comment

In early November I spent the day with Taiye Lambo of eFortresses, a data and information security training and certification company. To a non-corporate person like myself that’s a mouthful but if you live in the corporate world and your job intersects with data then you are likely to know and call on [...]

Down by the River, Up by the Tomb

By Jon Roemer On 7 Dec ’11 · 1 Comment

On location yesterday in NYC to shoot time lapse segments for a short video. Out the door at 5:15am and at the site by 6:30am. Set up location #1 in West Harlem Piers Park, on a pier in the Hudson right by 125th St and the West Side Highway. Fortunately, Fairway’s [...]

Canon EOS C300

By Jon Roemer On 30 Nov ’11 · 4 Comments

I had mentioned the Canon’s new 1D X when it was announced in mid-October. Right on the heels of that Canon revealed its new EOS C300, a cinema style camera which kicks things up many notches in features, quality, and… price point.

Director/DP/Editor Jonathan Yi has posted what may be the world’s greatest test [...]

Stopping Short of Rails

By Jon Roemer On 14 Nov ’11 · 1 Comment

Back in April, in my post Zacuto Stuff, I looked at mating a Zacuto Gorilla Plate or DSLR Baseplate with Really Right Stuff rails and clamps to create a quick release system that would allow you to move from platform to platform without having to reconfigure your DSLR.

That setup worked well but [...]

Canon EOS-1D X

By Jon Roemer On 18 Oct ’11 · 1 Comment

CPN Europe has a lot of information including a 12-page technical paper.

Canon Japan has a short film made with the [...]
