I can help to coordinate locations, aircraft, pilots, skydivers, riggers, specialty equipment, you name it, and as a camera flyer, I want the shot as much as anyone on set, so getting the shot is my greatest reward.
The following 1min 47sec video is a quick look at my demo reel. My full length demo reel is about 5 minutes.
MY WORK
I skydive with motion picture cameras for movies, television, and commercials, and I help my clients to coordinate everything that’s needed for a successful shoot.
COMPETITIVE EXPERIENCE
I flew camera for Rob Harris, the best sky surfer in the world, who led our team to 2 world championship titles and first place in the XGames. My role as a camera flyer counted for 25% of our total score, so I trained obsessively to become the best camera flyer I could possibly be, and to develop the muscle memory to fly aggressively while holding a fluid and well framed shot. Skydiving for Hollywood productions taught me more about choreography and storytelling, and over time, I developed a style of filming that is dynamic and unique among camera flyers.
WHAT MAKES ME A GOOD CHOICE FOR YOUR PROJECT?
1. I’m a regular guy who loves hard work, and I enjoy collaborating with creative people.
2. I understand that my work is only as good as the skydivers I film, so I always recommend skydivers who are trained in the style of flying that is called for in the story.
3. I literally know how to make a car fall right side up, and I’ve learned how objects move in the sky, so I’m good at filming them.
4. I’ve teamed up with some of the world’s greatest skydivers and innovators who have dedicated their lives to being the best in their chosen disciplines. I truly believe that we’re the strongest skydiving stunt team available today.
