DW’s Annual Camping Trip 2012

December 17, 2012 in Featured, Misc, videography by Kristoffer

Every year my friends and I set out for our annual group camping trip. This year we stayed near Huntingon Lake in the Sierra National Forest. I’m not sure if this was the trips 10 year anniversary but it’s close.

This video was almost completely filmed with my old GoPro Hero 2 camera. Except for the timelapses and campfire shots, pretty much everything else was from that awesome camera.

Jenny & Mike’s – Wedding Highlights

September 7, 2012 in Featured, videography, Weddings by Kristoffer


 

My good friend’s Mike and Jenny got married on July 14th 2012. The wedding took place in Healdsburg California, at Soda Rock Winery. Everything came together beautifully, and I was honored to not only be in the wedding party, but also be videographer to capture the day for them. Thank you to my amazingly talented girlfriend Trang and my brother Patrick for helping my shoot the parts of the wedding I could not.

Jenny & Mike’s – Proposal Story

July 17, 2012 in Featured, videography, Weddings by Kristoffer

My good friends Mike & Jenny got married on July 14th 2012. It was a beautiful wedding, and one that I was so happy to be a part of. As a gift I created a Proposal/Love Story video for them to show at their wedding reception. Before the reception no one had seen the video (not even the bride and groom) so I was really nervous to be there while everyone watched it. Thankfully the videos response was overwhelmingly positive! I wanted to put it online for their friends and family to be able to watch again.

For the creation of this video Trang and I flew down to San Francisco to interview our friends about their relationship and have them tell the story about how he proposed. After that we reenacted the entire proposal and stopped at other various places around to S.F. to shoot filler. From that trip I was able to create this video and I’m very happy with how it came out.

Thanks for checking it out. Congratulations once again to the happy couple. They really are meant for each other :)

Japan

July 3, 2012 in Featured, Misc, Travel by Kristoffer

Japan was above and beyond anything I could have expected. I loved everything about the country. Japan’s way of life and the respect for others is remarkable. I’ve never felt safer while on travels.

This trip had us crisscrossing all over the country. Using the JR rail pass we had major stops in Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Nagano. Yudanaka and Kamakura. Along the way we got to meet up with friends new and old that showed us parts of Japan that we surely would have missed.

This video doesn’t show all the places we were able to go but it is a good representation of just how busy we were.

Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse, was announced at E3

June 9, 2012 in 3d Animation, Misc by Kristoffer

While I was freelancing last year I was able to work on quite a few different projects.  Now that it’s been announced I can finally give a name to the title I had been working on.  It’s called…

Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse 

Although my role was minimal I was contracted by Pencil Test Studios to create in game animations for a handful of enemy AI. I very much enjoyed the animations I was able to create for this game and hope the game does well when it’s eventually released on September 25, 2012 on both the XBox 360 & PS3.

Solar Eclipse

May 20, 2012 in Featured, timelapse by Kristoffer

Caught the last half of the May 20th solar eclipse. Lost track of time and didn’t realize it had already started, but thankfully I was still able to set up two timelapses. One close up, and the other wide. Used a 4second interval & my trusted ND filter.

Camera: Nikon D7000 – 18-200mm 3.5-5.6

My travel footage made it into a commercial campaign!

May 1, 2012 in Featured, Misc, Travel, videography by Kristoffer

Great, fun, and exciting news! Last month I was messaged by a footage research company on Vimeo asking if they could use some of my travel footage in a international video campaign for DiscoverAmerica. After some quick back and forth messages and a signed user agreement, it was all set.

The footage is being used in a handful of government funded travel commercials created to promote U.S. tourism. Unfortunately the commercials aren’t going to be running in the states but millions of other people all over the world are going to see them.

If you’ve seen my travel videos you might be able to pick out my shots. Look for the two night time shots of the empire state building in the Making of “Land of Dreams” video, and a timelapse of Trang and I eating some of the best shaved ice in the states in the “land of Dreams – Taste It” commercial :) But keep your eyes peeled cause the clips are quick!

Here the links to the videos.


We’re at the 8 second mark.


You can see the back of Trang’s head at the 34 second mark.

Pretty quick huh? I don’t know about you guys but I am very excited over being asked to license my footage to help promote the states :)

You can see the entire collection of commercials @ http://www.youtube.com/user/YourDiscoverAmerica?feature=watch
Their website also features some stills of mine that help show off some of the cool things around the country. If you are interested in checking them out and learning more about DiscoverAmerica check out their website @ http://www.discoveramerica.com/

Friday the 13th Dusk Timelapse

April 14, 2012 in Featured, timelapse by Kristoffer

Southern California has some of the most boring cloud formations around.  That’s why I was caught off guard this evening when I was throwing the trash to see this amazing sunset taking place.   I ran inside to get the camera and drove to the nearest open field to capture the moment.  I wish I would have thrown the trash ten minutes earlier because I was only able to capture the tail end of it.

I was in such a hurry to get the shot I forgot to turn off the auto white balance and I started getting bad flickering throughout the last four seconds.  I used Virtual Dubs, MSU deflicker plug-in to help mask the problem.  The shot’s about ten seconds long and was shot at a two second interval.

Camera: Nikon D7000 – 50mm 1.4
