BEHIND THE SCENES: Sneak-Peek On A Toronto Film Shoot

Toronto film work is NOT an easy job!

Long hours, limited budgets and staff, crazy scheduling and tons of production problem solving. If you’re thinking of getting in to the filming industry (movie work, web series or television) then mentally prepare yourself to WORK! Both sides of the camera – actors and crew alike- are equally as important in creating a visually entertaining story.

We recently wrapped on a web series called BOOST. I can’t tell or show you anything else (yet) but here’s a sneak peek of two main characters. Notice anyone familiar? I’m also an actor in the web series. Stay tuned…

How My Favourite Photography Lenses Make YOU Look Incredible

favourite photography lens I’m a Canon user, but hardly ever use the standard kit lens that comes with the camera. Every photography professional knows kit lenses are just OK. And boring.

Instead, my personal two favourite lenses (for now) for photo shoots are:

50 mm prime lens from Canon, perfect for portraits because the shallowness really pulls focus on my subject, and
70 mm lens from Sigma, which captures a much sharper image than the prime, allows for me to be further away from my subject and still offers a good 4.0 aperture.

Knowing how to adjust your camera for different lighting conditions, environments and shutter speeds gives me more control over my photography. But investing in lenses can make a world of difference, makes your shots look incredible- and keeps shooting fun!

I have my eye on a couple more… stay tuned for more toys!
