I wish I had before photos of this location to show you how much we transformed the look. This was commercial 1 of 2 that we lit last year for Bitwise. It was a Crazy night-for-day blackout location with only one day to light and shoot. Was really happy with how everything looked even with the time crunch.

Featuring the electric @kenjeong . We had to step it up from the commercial we did for @airalocom last year. This was commercial 2 of 3 that we shot in 2 days on a very spread out ranch in Malibu. This one was tricky because we had only seen the space in the day and had to light it all and hope the plan worked out. As soon as it got dark we were rolling. I had a fantastic crew who crushed it and our fearless DP @matthewtompkins.dp made sure we had everything we needed to do this right. 1st AD: @jennakir 2nd AD: Spencer Hood Director of Photography: @matthewtompkins.dp 1st AC: @hellyeahmike 2nd AC: @jackdeichert_ Operator: @g2arch Techno Provided by: @elitecamerasupport Techno Tech’s: Randy Johnson, Sean Dommett Gaffer: @hotpointslighting BBE: @markjosephramsey SLTs: @michaelroseman.cine @johnhepfordfisher @drunken_frenchman @joseruiz1818 Generator: @_power_hous3 Key Grip: @breofreeman BBG: @bobbyrose84 Grips: @rumblenutzz @findingawayc @edubarraza @kingrandor58 Sound Mixer: Brian Cushin PD: Mark Davis Set Dec: Barbara Lago Prop Master: Patrick Reidy Leadman: Collin Lebrasseur Set Dressers: Guido Bryant, Mike Clark, and Dustin Gustaitis Stylist (KJ) : Reiko Schoenfeld Wardrobe Costumer (KJ): Patty Vaughn Wardrobe Stylist: Jolene Nava @jolene.nava Stylist Assts: Nayana Estanislau, Amanda Tirado KJ Stand-In: Phil Tan (icon) HMU (KJ): Ali Carbajal Hair (KJ): Patricia Lansingh HMU: Monica Gutierrez @monicagiselle HMU Assts: Desiree Penaloza, Amy Taylor Casting: @demingcasting Production Company: The Wild Factory @thewildfactory Executive Producer: Yura Liamin @yuraliamin Producer: Laura Dubois @lauradubois7 Production Coordinator: Catherine Heath Post Supervisor: Jiwon Uhm Editor: Johan T.

The logistics of making that happen made my brain hurt, but we figured it out and made it happen.

Up next in our team highlight is gaffer @colepisano & DP @matthewpothier . Once considered by NASA to shoot the fake moon landing in 1969, they weren’t hired due to fear that it would look too damn good. That job ended up going to Stanley Kubrick. So if you want your project to look even better than a Stanley Kubrick film, hire these guys.

Hot Points’ own @ryanapl turned the saturation all the way up for DP @laurenguiteras on Season 2 of eBay’s “Love Kicks”.
