echo echo one niner hotel bravo hoofer


So the company I work for had the opportunity to do this sweeeeeet project, which involves filming in a helicopter, motion tracking and matching using 3dsMax and After Effects goodness. Here are some pictures from my trip!

The bad ass helicopter we flew in.

Complete with a state of the art CineFlex Gen3 HD system.

READY FOR TAKE OFF!!

I was being serious I swear!

Gray Mitchell doing some preliminary tests on the controls.

Buddy Knotts; owner and opperator of Helivision (http://www.helivision.com/) He is a phenominial pilot!!


Following flight paths to get the shots we need.

He landed that sucker right on that trailer. I dont think I could park my car in a space like that. I was impressed!


Refueling, Buddy Knotts and the the Fueler on duty at a local airport.

After the shoot, had to walk over and have a convo with Gordon and Jimmy Johnson about their performance at last weeks Daytona 500.
:-P
