Default *AKA Rally 2008* - NY to Vegas - Pics and Teaser vid -

I attended the AKA Rally as a camera man. We were shooting for a 6 part Speed TV series. Craziest week of my life!

Highlights
Going 175 through the canyons.
Getting ran over by a lady while filming, her trying to leave.
Going around a track in a school bus.
NSX putting in a new turbo in the middle of a hotel parking lot, all techs drunk.
Watching a van roll over across 3 lanes right in front of us.
350Z revs making kids at a gas station cry.
Couple of us testing out or small NERF guns outside walmart, only to see the RX8 driver walk out with a tripod mounted NERF machine gun.

Teaser

Got to drive the GTR!

As his motor is dumping his coolant for the 5th time, the owner of the truck decides to do a burnout over it.


Stuck at a dealership. Went to pick up wheel studs, power steering failed as we pulled into the parking lot. Drove the rest of the trip without it.


4 AM at Red Cliffs Lodge in Moab, Utah


Yeah, cross country on a bike!

We did about 5k worth of damage to the buggies.

























Drove through Utah in the Ferrari 360. The owner made it a point to arrive at the hotel first ever day.

Sweet! I ran into that blue dodge at a gas station in Iowa right off of I80. They were messing with something under the hood and video taping it

Experience. Pay attention to your light meter. Expose to preserve highlights. RAW, curves, magic.

I guess I could be considering pro...

Canon 40D. Sigma 10-20 for most of the shots and a 1.8 50 prime for the canyon shots.


A few more
