Working the 2010 Winter Olympics

No need to recap the Olympic events for you, as there were almost 3000 credentialed media to do that for you. I wanted to share a few of my favorite videos I shot at the 2010 Winter Olympics. I honestly feel that these videos capture the essence of what it was like to be in Vancouver for the Olympics.

Strikeforce Challengers 5 Fight Night

While spending my entire very late night listening to MMAWeekly radio, I uploaded these photos from Friday’s Strikeforce Challengers card for your perusal.  I’m not thrilled, yes, I know I say this every time.
I’ve got a ton of excuses but there are still a few winners in there. I love the venue’s intimacy and age.  [...]

DREAM 13 Poster

Fuck. DREAM designers make me so happy. This is just bold and wonderful. Bibiano Fernandes vs Joachim Hansen.

Enjoy.

In Love With Looking

As I’d mentioned in this post, I don’t have anything booked this week, both on purpose and by chance — so I am cleaning the office, writing, reading, and spending time with my dogs.  Now, I like to take work whenever it comes because as a freelancer, it is difficult to say no because there [...]

RESET: Periodic Update

Just letting you know that our resident video shooter/cutter extraordinaire Casey is currently on a three-week expedition to cover the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver with Fanhouse’s Ariel Helwani, and so we have not made any new videos to present to you that are within the world of MMA. I’m taking much needed time [...]

UFC 109 Workout for AOL Fanhouse

Hey all! I wanted to post a link to the gallery over at MMAFighting.com/AOL Fanhouse of yesterday’s media workouts for UFC 109. It was lots of fun watching Chael Sonnen cartwheel and handstand his way across the mats in a tiny, stinky, sweaty room filled with mats and members of the media.

Training Camp: Mike “Quick” Swick

We’re back with another video (finally!) and this time for AOL Fanhouse / MMAFighting.com.  Casey and I drove up to AKA with Jason “Mayhem” Miller to do all kinds of shoots and put together this video on Mike “Quick” Swick who will be facing Paulo Thiago at UFC 109 this weekend.
It was a great experience [...]

Strikeforce: Miami

Oh my.  I am so exhausted.  But pretty happy.  As usual, I’m a wreck because I stayed up until 11 am this morning uploading and editing photos — and like the disgruntled artist I’ll forever be, I’m only partly satisfied with the work I did last night.  Regardless, I wanted to share my favorite shots [...]
