Brainfingers.gif (171353 bytes) 'KAPOW! Superhero Science' on the Discovery channel featured Cyberlink Brainfingers. This device allows people to control a computer with just the brain! Dramatic, colorful lighting was used to fit the cartoon superhero theme of the show. Shot in Betacam ENG.
Caddi copy.jpg (309951 bytes)      This 1930 Cadillac is part of the Cadillac Historical Collection. It, along with 10 other classic Cadillac's and LaSalle's were featured in a trailer shown with 'From Here to Eternity' for Cadillac customers. We converted the storage area at the museum into a stage with blue drape and a plexiglass floor. A fisher dolly was used for most shots. This was shot in Super 16 for projection.
AMRubber.gif (116576 bytes)      This 'little' guy climbed and danced all over these Amway/Rubbermaid products. I shot the actual products first on ultimatte blue. We then arranged blocks built overscale to match the original products for the boy to climb on. The blocks were also ultimatte blue. We had ultimatte equipment on set to check the matching and recorded on Digital Betacam.
