Light Darkness Light - Feature Documentary Trailer

Light Darkness Light presents an immersive narrative about memory, technology, faith and perception through one man’s extraordinary odyssey into the future. At age 76, Ian Nichols — an Anglican priest who has been blind for nearly 40 years — becomes one of the first people in the world to attempt to regain sight with an implanted bionic eye. Melding intimate first-person verité with cinematic memory sequences and depth camera animation, the film captures one man’s remarkable journey to redefine the boundaries of human perception and technology.

See You Out There Connecticut PSA 90 sec

This Emmy® Award-winning commercial PSA helped the International Association of Fire Chiefs recruit new volunteers.

Director - Matthew Troy

DP - Greg Wilson

 Production Company: Silent Dog Pictures

Nearly three-fourths of the fire departments in the United States are volunteer, as is the case in Connecticut. Nearly all volunteer fire departments across the state are facing staffing shortages, with fewer and fewer citizens stepping up to volunteer as older generations retire. Attempting to engage new audiences with a cinematic flair, the PSA campaign "See You Out There" was written and directed by Matthew Troy, a volunteer firefighter and filmmaker, and produced in partnership with the CT Fire Chiefs Association and International Association of Fire Chiefs. Every firefighter/rescuer featured in this film is an actual volunteer firefighter. Visit www.everydayheroct.org for more information, or to learn how you can join your local CT fire department.

AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL - Disney+ Trailer

“AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL,” narrated by Michael B. Jordan, is the jaw-dropping story of North America’s picturesque lands and its amazing animals. We take a journey through the mountainous Northwest, the steamy South, the arid West and the endless Heartland to witness the animals of North America overcoming the elements and thriving.

BEHIND THE SCENES - STORMS

AMERICA - BTS of STORMS

Ride along with me and the rest of the V/SPEED team as we get unclose and personal with some of the most violent forces on earth. I’ve had many “firsts” in cinematography and have always tried to find new ways to move the camera or place it where it’s never been before but capturing storms for Disney+’s America the Beautiful was one of the move thrilling sequences I have ever been part of. As a long time storm chaser, I knew the level of detail and focus from the entire team would be critical to not only do this safely but to capture imagery that would truly change perspectives on weather and the forces that create it, we would need to have the best people in the world in each position. Much more to come on this style of work, we’re just getting started.

Cheetahs on the Edge

-Winner of the 2013 National Magazine Awards for best Multimedia piece of the year- 
Cheetahs are the fastest runners on the planet. Combining the resources of National Geographic Magazine and the Cincinnati Zoo, and drawing on the skills of an incredible crew, we documented these amazing cats in a way that’s never been done before.

Using a Phantom camera filming at 1200 frames per second while zooming beside a sprinting cheetah, the team captured every nuance of the cat’s movement as it reached top speeds of 60+ miles per hour. The extraordinary footage that follows is a compilation of multiple runs by five cheetahs during three days of filming.

Let Me Know When You See Fire

Cinematographer Greg Wilson was asked by Vision Research and Abel CineTech to shoot the first test footage with the new Phantom Flex4K Digital Cinema Camera. He brought on director Brendan Bellomo to direct the project. The camera was a little more than a week old; still in its alpha prototype stage, had only been turned on a few times, when they got their hands on it.   

All the live action footage was shot on March 24th, 2013. Some additional fire elements were shot on the 23rd and 25th of March with the Hebron and Glastonbury Fire Departments in Connecticut. 

Director - Brendan Bellomo

Producers - Liliana Bonafini, Greg Wilson, Brendan Bellomo
