New Contributor: Charles Bergquist
Posted by Scott
You may remember San Diego based director / photographer Charles Bergquist from our post a while back on his projections collection. We’re all big fans of his work and through Ghostly and Tycho we have worked with him a lot over the past year. I am currently working with him on the new Tycho live visuals set and realized he would make a great contributor to the blog. Charles will mostly be doing video and photographic posts with a focus on process / equipment (like his soon-to-be-delivered Red Scarlet).
So everybody give Charles a warm welcome, his first post should be coming shortly.

November 24, 2011 at 9:04 amI was just thinking about how great it would be if Charles’ work was featured on ISO50, seeing as there’s a very similar aesthetic and mentality between his work and the stuff posted on here. You totally read my mind, super stoked to see one of my inspirations on one of my favorite blogs.

November 24, 2011 at 11:14 amWonderful!! Welcome Charles. Great addition–you read my mind as well–his video for Matthew Dear’s Slowdance has been on constant repeat lately. Haunting, fluid, and gorgeous.

November 25, 2011 at 12:24 pmThank you everyone for the warm welcome! I’m really excited to be writing on the blog and hope to give everyone some process insight as well as some of the nerdy tech stuff that I get into. Also, we’ll try to give you behind the scenes and process on the show visuals that Scott and I are working on for the upcoming shows!
Thanks again everyone for the welcome, I really appreciate it!

November 30, 2011 at 2:40 pmNice stuff, What’s the camera used in these videos?

December 1, 2011 at 4:24 amVery nice skating video. I was pretty sure it has been slowed down with Twixtor and I was even trying to see the artifacts in video, but found nothing. Instead it was shot with Olympus i-Speed 3 high-speed camera, so I guess there is not much need for slow down software effects. Seriously good work!
