RAVE :: Digital Film & Visual Effects

Posted: January 6, 2010

I have the sad task of announcing that Jared has stepped down from RAVE. We started the company 4 and a half years ago in my basement with a couple of old computers and a shoestring budget. We got to work on some very cool projects during that time including marketing/branding, and commercials, experimental video, and short films. While sad that Jared is no longer a part of the day to day operations, we are happy that his new ventures are going well.

RAVE will continue on. We already have a lineup of very cool projects happening and are looking forward to the rest of 2010.

Shooting RED in the Heartland

Posted: November 14, 2009

Client: TJ Hellmuth/Blanden Art Museum

I spent last week in Iowa helping Director of Photography TJ Hellmuth film a documentary and commercial for the Blanden Art Museum. Although I've dealt with a lot of RED™ footage in post, this was my first time on-location shooting with the RED ONE™. I must say I was impressed by the camera's usability. It was easy to operate with lots of customizable buttons to set it up for our specific needs. The menus could use a little reorganization (for some reason there's a sound and an audio menu), but otherwise the RED ONE™ is a fantastic camera to shoot with.

Letters To Eva

2009 Columbus 48 Hour Film Project

Posted: August 19, 2009

This past weekend we filmed 'Letters to Eva' as a part of the Columbus 48 Hour Film Project. Our assigned genre was Buddy Film, which worked incredibly well with the required line of dialogue, "That's better than what happened to me." Additionally, we were required to use a large plant and a character named Morgan or Becky Frank, a writer.
