Chemeketa Community College


It has been such a blast working with Chemeketa Community College to produce a series of 30-second spots the last two years.  It was great working with Rick, from BAM Agency along with Greg Harris and his entire team there at Chemeketa.

In 2014, we collaborated again to produced two spots aimed at encouraging parents of college-bound high school students to seek more information about Chemeketa. We filmed the spots in 4K using the Canon C500 camera and the Defy G12 gimbal.

In 2013, we had the chance to work with some amazing talent on a fun series of spots. In 2012, we filmed the commercials over 3 days in the fall, using the Canon C300 camera. The C300 proved to be the perfect fit for this project, as we were constantly modifying the setup of the camera depending on the shot we wanted. Going from hand-held, to the steady-cam to the Kessler Crane was very simple with the way the camera allows you to change its setup quickly.
