One of my first jobs on the Jib was filming with Brutus the Bear for America the Wild on NatGeoTV. Despite being a big teddy bear, Brutus is shockingly nimble. He would destroy that microphone by the end of the day.
Skeptically looking around as I stand in an enclosure with several Wolves, filming for an episode of America the Wild
Filming aerials in Montana on a bitterly cold early morning in January. Props to the Tyler mini-mount for staying strong in the cold.
Filming the over the Laminai Jungle in Belize. This is before the advent of gimbals, so we used a Kenyon Labs KS-8 inertial gyro suspended from the airframe to keep the camera steady.
Duck Duck the goose was the thanksgiving dinner that never was… this photo was taken back in 2015 on the homestead in AK just before thanksgiving. 6 years later I ended up back on the show and this grouchy little goose is still running the yard.
