New videos for Tethertools

/9 Comments/in , , /by

It’s no secret that I’m a huge advocate of shooting tethered, the fact that you immediately see what you’re doing is just perfect on location or in the studio. And although some people claim that shooting tethered is something from the past the sheer amount of utilities and hardware/accessories and apps for your mobile devices is growing almost daily, proofing that shooting tethered is really a thing of NOW and not from the past ;-). A lot of people however ask me questions about shooting tethered, thinking they need a lot of gear while in reality they probably already have everything, and this was my main motivation to make the videos you see here.

I shoot with the Tethertools products which we also sell and promote in the Benelux. But as always I really believe in the quality of the products (otherwise I would not promote them). A few weeks ago I had to make a “rushed” video introducing the products and I never was completely happy with that video so it was time to make a new one, and because we also wanted one in Dutch I decided to make two, one in Dutch and one in English. In this blog post you can see both videos. I also included several tips and tricks to make your tethered solution work more easy and smooth.

Sneak peak …..

Ok I have been writing several times about the new instructional DVD we have been working on the last few weeks, and I can now say that we are very close to the “preview” part of the DVD, meaning all the scenes are done in rough edits and will be checked for errors, weird lip-sync problems etc. This will take at least 1-2 weeks more but we hope to be able to send the DVD to the printing/pressing station after that.

In total the DVD will run well over 2 hours and is filled with lots of tips on the use of light meters, posing models, working in outside and inside locations, working with small flash, working with the flash benders from rogue, tether tools, tips about shooting into the sun, using lens flares, using locations to match the models and so much more.
Some of you asked if I had something online from the older DVDs and to be honest somehow we never did, with the new DVD we did go another direction, the previous DVDs were all done with voice overs and although that works great we did get some questions about adding more “live sound” so with this new DVD we did just that. The whole DVD was filmed during the workshop I did in Boston this September so you will see the workshop take place and hear the most important bits as it happened. However we also had two scenes left that were filmed slightly different and we decided to not let them go to waste but add them to the DVD as extra bonus tracks…. these videos are shot without live sound and I added a voice over on top of the video to explain more in depth whats going on in the video and share some tips and tricks. To give people a good idea about the way the previous DVDs look and to give a little bit of a teaser for the new one we will now share one of these bonus videoclips.

PLEASE remember that this is different from the DVD material which was shot live as just explained, it’s just the one of the bonus videos.

Video Marie for Pocketwizard review

/13 Comments/in , , , /by

As you have probably read the last few days I’ve been testing the Pocketwizard system for radio E-TTL.
This video was shot during the session from which you have seen the images in yesterdays blog post.
I’ve added a voice over to make some things more clear, don’t see it as an instructional video but in combination with the review. If there are any questions feel free to ask. I will keep using the system and add sessions and small descriptions (and maybe some more videos if you guys like them) in the coming weeks.

Feel free to comment and please share this link….
