Glass Eye Video Blog: The blog for wedding videography. Wedding and event video production company based in Cincinnati, Ohio.

One of the things I love most about what I do is the opportunity for travel. Last January I learned so much at the International Cinematographer Conference in Orlando, Video 08, I decided to sign up for this year too! Reagan and Mya will be joining me in what doubles as a family vacation, and we’re really excited to take Mya to Disney World. We’ve got a few of our recent videos in for International awards, so keep your fingers crossed!

The day after we return to Cincinnati, I head up to Canada to spend a few days at a workshop headed by one of the greatest studios in the biz, Still Motion. I had the amazing opportunity to work with them a couple months ago and I’ve been looking forward to the workshop ever since.  Only 12 Cinematographers were chosen to participate in this hands on workshop about taking wedding and event film making to the next level.  

As if all that weren’t enough, in April I make the trek to Austin for the second Re:Frame event. Re:Frame is an exclusive and intensive workshop all about learning innovative techniques and trends. Cinematographers from around the world will be there and I am lucky to be one of 50 participants selected to attend. I had such a great time and learned so much in New Orleans back in October, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to do it again.

We are really looking foward to an amazing year in 2009. We have some new things up our sleeves so stay tuned.

Wow! The team of Glass Eye Video is now one person stronger! It took me quite a while to find someone I felt shared the same passion for video and film production as I do and I’m so pleased to announce the addition of Josh Emerson to Glass Eye Video! I met Josh a couple months ago when Kelly Ley Smith of Daphne Photo Studio introduced us, he wanted to help out with a Trash the Dress we were producing. Josh really hit the ground running that day and I could really see his commitment to nailing the shot, no matter what it took. I’m an incredibly passionate person and I absolutely LOVE what I do so I really took my time to find the right person who I believed shared the same values. 2009 is looking to be an incredible year for us and I’m so excited about what lies ahead with the new studio, new features to be announced soon, and now the new team member!

Notice anything different around here? Check it out! New logo, site, and blog! I really wanted to change things up here a bit to coincide with our move into the world of High Definition! Yep, we’re now filming everything in High Definition, and I couldn’t be more excited about it! Vivid colors, stunning clarity and widescreen format.  We’ve actually been filming in HD for about a month now and you’ll start to see the new films hitting the blog soon, very soon! Check back later, I have something really sweet to share with you!

Many thanks to Greg with Raewell Graphics for the incredible job he did designing the new logo and marketing materials.

Alright, I’ll admit it, my blogging hasn’t been as frequent as I’d like it to be, but I wanted to give you an update about what’s going on here at GEV!

First of all, we’ve been selected by Style Me Pretty to be featured in their Little Black Book! This is a HUGE honor as they only select a few of the best in each city. How sweet is that!?!?! I’m in GREAT company too, with the likes of Viva Bella Events, TM Photography, and Simply Timeless Photography! The book is also filled with a ton of my Internationally known friends too! To be categorized with these companies is unbelievable!

Secondly, I got to shoot a wedding with Patrick Moreau of Still Motion, the super star of wedding cinematography and one of the Top 25 in the world! It was a real honor and an amazing experience to work side by side with him and Konrad in Columbus. I’ll share the trailer as soon as its available.

As if all that wasn’t enough, I’m moving into a new studio in a few weeks! Super sweet space that we are going to completely overhaul and I’ve got a couple things up my sleeve for it. 

And lastly, there are some major changes coming to Glass Eye Video that we can’t wait to share. I don’t want to let the cat out of the bag just yet, but stay tuned!
