For Steve Holleran, a camera has always been a means to capture the beauty of the world. From commercials to documentaries to shorts and music videos, he has always focused on images that tell compelling stories. For his latest project, indie feature The Land, he teamed up with Steven Caple Jr., a friend of his from his USC MFA Production Program days.

Phil Lott is quite the triple threat - as a cinematographer, director, and showrunner, he has been working in the industry for over two decades. Phil has extensive credits in television, and while he enjoys the medium, his most recent project is an indie feature called Kelly & Cal.

In a recent guest post on NoFilmSchool, AbelCine client Richard Patterson outlined some the challenges he faced when traveling to Haiti to work on Papa Machete, a documentary following Alfred Avril, the last master of Haitian machete fencing.

AbelCine client Nicholas Matthews is a cinematographer who has worked on varied projects such as award-winning commercials, music videos, and features like In Loving Memory (International Film Festival of LA Official Selection). Recently, he started work on a new project - an indie film called Jackrabbit 29 .

Last month, we posted some first impressions of Vision Research's new Flex4K camera from our friends Greg Wilson and Steve Romano. Recently Brain Farm, the Wyoming-based production house specializing in action sports cinematography, turned to award-winning skateboard film veteran Ty Evans to test the Flex4K in skateboard country - Southern California.

In his new short film, Salience, filmmaker Paul Trillo explores the theme of visibility. Paul and his team used the Phantom Miro camera to capture body-suited figures (rendered transparent in post) becoming visible through contact with bursts of colored powder. Watch the video above for the full film.
