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 [...]

[FCP X] x 30 + 2

By Jon Roemer On 23 Sep ’11 · Leave a Comment

A few more FCP X notes:

-FCP X searches all of your hard drives for FCP X Event files whenever it boots up. If, like me, you have two hard drives or two raid arrays backing each other up you’ll want to take the backup offline prior to opening FCP X. If you don’t FCP [...]

[FCP X] x 30

By Jon Roemer On 21 Sep ’11 · Leave a Comment

I have been using Final Cut Pro X extensively over the past month and I have to say – I really like it. Maybe it’s using Aperture for so long but FCP’s new interface, which is similar, is a breath of fresh air. I was never an expert in the old Final Cut Pro (v7.x), I [...]

Student Voices – Legal Methods

By Jon Roemer On 15 Sep ’11 · Leave a Comment

I am very proud of this piece. Its short length does not begin to convey the amount of work which went into it. It was created for Columbia Law School as a fundraising video to kick off their Annual Fund.

Production was done by the Law School’s Office of Communication and Public Affairs (thanks Libby & Michele!) [...]
