Video Feature | Supersizing Your Impact with Science 37

Working with Science 37 provides the opportunity to connect with medical professionals from all corners of the medical community. The kind and humble Dr. Chris Reist shares his wealth of knowledge and experience on where he’s been, what he’s learned, and where he’s heading to help virtual clinical trials excel into the future in this short doctor vignette.

We’ve all had to make difficult changes to adapt to living in this pandemic. I was fortunate to be able to direct, shoot and edit this video during a challenging time where many media professionals were losing their jobs or unable to work. During this shoot we followed all CDC guidelines and Los Angeles safety protocols. Throughout COVID-19, running a small yet strong operation has provided me with the ability to continue to help individuals and companies share their stories through multimedia. I’m forever grateful for the ever-growing connections I’ve made throughout the medical community. My constant hope is that the work that we do together leaves a greater impact on this world.

This project was shot on two Fujifilm X-T3s with the powerful XF18-55mm kit lens and the XF55-200mm. They are two of the cheapest lenses you can buy from Fujifilm but the results honestly have been beyond satisfactory. For more videos be sure to check out my other videos HERE.

Video Feature | What's Good?! Safe & Balance with YOGAqua on Spectrum 1 News SoCal

We’re all just trying to squeeze in our daily workouts throughout the pandemic. While some of us are coming up short on our new year’s resolution - others are persisting they meet their goals in a unique & socially-distanced way.

Amy Paffrath, positivity guru & hostess of What’s Good?! on Spectrum 1 News SoCal invited me to bring my camera along for some additional footage on the above segment about YOGAqua - yoga on a stand up paddleboard. I even took advantage of the opportunity to take a board out for the first time myself (thankfully not shown in the segment!). It was a perfect day to soak up the rays and witness the fitness world from a different view - on the water!

Special thanks to Amy for busting me out of my comfort zone of shooting wildlife and doing something different for a change! For more What’s Good!? segments be sure to click subscribe on Amy’s Youtube Page - we can always use more good news!

David Coman | Science 37 CEO

It has been an awesome creative adventure working with Science 37 to help them achieve their goals in media & marketing. They provide me opportunity to continually pivot roles from video, to audio, motion graphics, voiceover, web design, and now photography - it’s truly everything I love! Grateful to the core!

I was recently asked to photograph Science 37’s new CEO David Coman for their upcoming press release. This was a great opportunity to take advantage of some new gear I purchased and techniques I’ve learned over the years. David was a good sport and came off calm and comfortable; even though he was going through the whirlwind of CEO meet & greets and responsibilities.

I recognized the raw power the Fujifilm gear has from the moment I got my hands on them. I worked a little backwards though - starting with video and then practicing more photography on the system in my free time. This particular photo was taken on the X-T3 with the XF55-200mm f3.5-4.8 lens. I purchased the lens off a friendly craigslister for a really great price - it was BARELY used - to the point of where the gears were still so tight extending the lens was like turning molasses. The reviews on this lens were all glowing - as I’ve been witnessing on many of the Fuji XF lenses. I didn’t really know what I was going to shoot with it, but am coming to realize that it’s extremely versatile and so far has provided some really excellent crisp landscape images, along with some beautiful bokeh. I haven’t seen much on it in terms of portraiture or headshots - probably because more people lean towards the 56mm f1.2 (it will be mine…oh yes, it will be mine.). If you’re a Fuji user thinking about adding the 55-200mm to your kit - I say go for it! No regrets!

As any creative would feel - it’s a dream come true to have my work put out into the world by anyone other than myself. The possibilities are truly endless and exciting opportunity with this gear is certainly around the corner!
