Nikon Professional Service Member finally! Very nice in case something breaks. Unfortunately only for Nikon Pro gear and not for my favorite camera at the moment, the total amateurish D 5000 ...
Last night the 28th annual Sports Emmy awards were held in New York. A segment from King Lines featuring Chris Sharma climbing Es Pontas was nominated in the category of Outstanding Camerawork. The segment had aired in December as part of NBC's show The Jeep World of Adventure Sports, and is still being replayed on the Universal HD network. We were up against The Olympics, Nascar, and other mega-mainstream programs, but we ended up taking the prize! BigUpproductions and Sender Films would like to thank you all for supporting this project and helping us elevate climbing to new levels. We are continuing to shoot more amazing stuff for King Lines - it will screen in over 50 cities this fall as part of the 2007 Reel Rock Film Tour. We are also producing more climbing segments for the Jeep show, and we will keep you all posted as things progress. All the Emmy details are available through the link above. Many thanks!"

Das freut einen natürlich! Hier sind (auf Deutsch) einige Anekdoten von den Dreharbeiten und Bilder von den Dreharbeiten.
Test shots with a head mounted "bullit cam", 2004. The footage never got used because the bullit cam can only deliver SD and we entirely switched over to HD in 2005. Now, that there is such a hype about producing in 3D, we want to go back and do a 3D HD film about the Verdon. That would be a stunner!
