              Contest Entry: Zak Shelhamer Shoots A Motorcycle

              Zak Shelhamer has just submitted his contest entry; a behind the scenes video of him shooting his buddy on a motorcycle. The shoot isn’t complicated at all and that is why I love it. Zak uses a van, 2 lights, and a stick to create very compelling images. You can join the dialog about this video below in the comments or head over to his forum post here.

                I like it. 1.5hr to do a shoot, with no cash just friends. A lot of photographers think they either need a huge production… or just don’t do anything at all to begin with… Rock on Zak

                Defintely a fan of that camcorder hot shoe mount. Video was good but audio would have been better with the help of a clip on mic.

                Thanks guys, I wish I had a mic so bad! I think sound is one of the most important things in video I also wish I had more time to explain why I did that lighting set up and some other ideas that I had.. Next time.
