Dutch Tilt


A busy fall continues, as I just returned from Noordwijk, The Netherlands, which is about 40km from Amsterdam and overlooks The North Sea. The growth of "RFID Journal" continues as the leading RFID authority on the web staged a convention for their growing European audience. Earlier in the year I created a video promoting future conferences in North America... and I'll be doing the same for "RFID Journal LIVE Europe 2007" with this new footage. All of the videos are destined to be posted on the company's web site.

Back from Montreal


Shot and conducted about 50 sit-down interviews in a single day at a conference in Montreal, while my trusty editor worked feverishly in another room to digitize the footage and put it all together. What often takes a month or more, we swung in about 36 hours. All for a showing the next day. Yikes. The project was also shot on HDV.

Cognos Performance 2006


I've done a handful of videos over the years for Canada's largest software company, Cognos -- based in Ottawa. Just went to Chicago to interview a rep from one of their biggest customers, IBM. It's all part of series of videos that will be shown as part of their annual, 30 city road show, including a high octane "meeting opener".

Raymond James


Just completed visits to Victoria, Vancouver and Calgary... shooting for leading financial company, Raymond James. In a few weeks we'll complete the project with a three day shoot in Toronto. Shooting on HDV, funky modules will be put together for their conference in Florida in October.

16:9.... aspect ratio of the new millenium.

Be Smart Be Safe - Summer 2006


Just finished a highlight video of the Be Smart Be Safe summer program, sponsored by Canada's home, car and business insurers. Focusing on the progress of two caravans travelling in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, as well as a number of other initiatives, including Heads Across Canada, described below.

Heads Across Canada


Just back from St. Johns, Newfoundland, where I caught the very end of the "Heads Across Canada" cycling team's voyage. Immediately flew back to Halifax, Nova Scotia to complete the video portion of their final press conference. More below.

Lifetime Electronic Press Kit


For U.S. network “Lifetime”, I did some behind the scenes shooting on the set of their new TV movie, “Why I wore Lipstick to my Mastectomy”, currently shooting in Toronto, and starring Sarah Chalke. The highlight was an opportunity to do a quiet, sit down interview with Patti Labelle, who has a key supporting role, and has personally lost three sisters to cancer.

Heads Across Canada


A group of U of Toronto medical students started cycling across the country in May of this year. Beginning in Vancouver, they finally hit the streets of Ottawa today. They are promoting national charity ThinkFirst, as well as the insurance industry's Be Smart Be Safe campaign. Their message is one of injury prevention, and they are encouraging everyone in their path to wear a helmet. A great way to spend a summer! I'm creating a video of their journey, now updated every few days and shown at press conferences as they make their way to the east coast.
