Here’s some footage from a test shoot shot last week. I’ve been working with dancers from Canada’s National Ballet School in preparation for an upcoming project. I’m several weeks into my program of work for a Chalmers Arts Fellowship that is centred around ‘exploring the structural elements of the moving image’. In the coming weeks I’ll be posting more info about what I’ve been up to in terms of the fellowship.

Canon PowerShot G11
I really enjoy shooting with a small camera. The bigger my projects get, the more I appreciate the mobility and flexibility of a small set up. I picked up the Canon PowerShot G11 last week, and took it out shooting today with a Speedlite Flash and off-camera cord. Here’s my favourite pick from the day – my friend Angela on College Street in Toronto.

Ballet Test # 2 – Westside Studio
I spent last friday at Westside Studio conducting a test shoot for an upcoming motion project centred on ballet. The subjects of the test were dancers Rayna Brayshaw and Rebecca Connor – both of Canada’s National Ballet School. I’ll be posting some test footage later this week – but for now here’s some set photos taken by Photographer Melissa Tait during the shoot. Thanks to Make Up Artist Lauren Fisher for her talents, and Photographer Arash Moallemi who is helping me to explore this concept.

Here’s an unpublished image from the CFL portrait project – excluded for obvious reasons, but I like it just the same.

Assemblage Test
I’ve always really liked David Hockney’s photography. I’ve been toying with creating a few projects inspired by his work. Here’s a test I shot the other week.

Pond Hockey
Over the weekend I ran a timelapse of a pond hockey game north of Toronto. The ice went soft pretty early – but the game kept going as players switch out of skates and into boots. Here’s a still image from the shoot.

I’ve been interested in photographing timelapses for a while now – here’s a test I just photographed in Toronto.
