A closer look at the MOVMAX Razor rig mounted on the camera car.

The arm, the gimbal, the camera—and at the end, the Porsche GT3 RS rolling shot it all came together to capture.

Your footage looks orange or blue, and you’re tired of guessing which setting fixes it.

Here’s how to capture a custom white balance on your Sony camera so you have a better starting point before you edit.

Use a neutral white or gray reference in the same light as your subject, capture the reading, and you’re ready to shoot. Repeat when the lighting changes.

Save this for your next shoot.

You’re filming a white object, but your camera insists it’s blue. You adjust it—and now it’s orange.

Your white balance tells the camera how to interpret the light. Under the same lighting, a lower Kelvin setting makes the image cooler, while a higher setting makes it warmer.

Watch what changes when you get it right. Wednesday, we’ll walk through setting and locking it for consistent shots.

You’ve cleared everything off your desk for a clean shot—but putting one object back might make it better.

Place your subject with some room behind it, frame your background, then bring an object close to the lens. Keep it near the edge so it adds depth without hiding your subject.

Foreground → subject → background.

Save this setup for your next shoot.

If your shot feels flat, it may be missing one of these three layers:

1. Foreground
2. Middleground
3. Background

Place something close to the lens, keep your subject in the middle, and leave some separation behind them. That simple change can make the frame feel much deeper.

Save this for your next shoot.

Two drones. One final film.

I combined the best footage from both the cinematic drone and FPV into one short automotive piece.

Smooth when it needed to be. Aggressive when it needed to be.

Just a clean showcase of what both styles can bring to the same shoot.

Not sure where to start with your video settings? Here’s a simple setup for natural-looking motion, from frame rate and shutter speed to getting your exposure right.

Save this for your next shoot.

Want more control over how your videos look? Pay attention to motion blur.

Three shutter speeds, three different feels. Knowing the difference helps you choose the look that fits your scene.

Save this for your next shoot.

Mac + Tiger.

This session was about more than getting them both to look at the camera—it was about capturing the connection between them. Add a stormy Arizona backdrop, and everything came together.

Which photograph from the set is your favorite?
