Return to the Church

The home town still has a few new places to find fun and cursing a round with Cam for a week we found some, we went back to some old ones and in the end we got some shots for NZwakeboard.com.

The North Island Wakeboard Champs 2012

February 8th, 2012 § 0

It turns out my computer doesn’t really like creating 3D text in photoshop so this took a while to go from concept to completion and after a whole number of different tries to give the text the effect I ended up going with Repousse tool and as quite often happens the final image is quite different to the initial concept but I’m happy so if you can make it get on down, Facebook event here.

The Old GoPro

February 7th, 2012 § 0

Altho the new GoPro is amazing in pretty much compared to the old one in pretty much every sense, there is something cool about being around when the HeroHD changed action sports photography and video, some for good, some for bad. They had major limitations and when pushed would sometime give out these crazy blurred, morphed and weird images that you had no idea about until then were “developed” on your computer, kinda like film. The Hero2 is soo fast it pretty much always gets a clean shot. I’m gonna miss some of these mistakes.

Airtime – Private Wakeboard Park

February 2nd, 2012 § 0

Ep 4 of the series but the first of my work to be on Airtime, it was one two day mission to shoot and a whole lot more than that to edit but I’m really happy with my first efforts of a TV show and hopefully I can continue to push them to bigger and better things, A massive thanks to everyone that helped me to do this, Josh O for riding, Liam Hall for filming and editing, the Wanaka crew for driving jet skis all night and helping out, the rail garden crew for building such an epic spot, Robett and the Airtime crew for making the project happen & Chloe for putting up with me while I’m stressing out about pretty much everything.

For not being much of a car geek I was hanging out at a classic jap car convention, Jeremy’s old convertable Datsun is amazing.

Auckland Wakeboard Open poster.

January 18th, 2012 § 0

Not that I’m going to the event but I was asked to this poster yesterday morning and have it finished by yesterday night. After scratching my head for a while I used this image from about 3 days after I got my first DSLR, I guess there is a reason I have soo many hard drives on my desk.
