Greetings from Seattle
 
Hello everyone, and thanks for allowing me on board. I've been taking still photographs semi-pro for many many years, and recently purchased a Canon 5D Mk II. Once I discovered the 1080p side of the equation I purchased a shotgun mic and am now studying to learn the best way to utilize this amazing machine. Considering all the knowledge available here at DVInfo I'm confident I'll be up to speed very quickly.

Welcome to the neighborhood! I'm just up the road from you, in Woodinville.

Carl Rubin May 22nd, 2010 08:47 AM

Thanks neighbor! I'm just up the hill from Chateau Ste. Michelle. (hey, that rhymes ...)

Ryan Douthit May 22nd, 2010 03:52 PM

Hey Carl, I see we're neighbors. I'm over in the Lakeview district of Kirkland and produce a car series with an NX5U... though I've used many other cameras in the past.

Thanks Ryan. Man, I just checked out your site, some fantastic stuff. Gotta love those GT-R's.

Ryan Douthit May 22nd, 2010 04:40 PM

If you like GT-Rs, here's the video to watch:
YouTube - Taming the Serpent: Illtech's R35 GTR

We shot this last year and its become rather popular on YouTube. We're doing another GT-R feature in the next few weeks. A modified car with about 700whp. I've driven it... it's nuts.

Carl Rubin May 23rd, 2010 07:01 AM

Cool. Are these GT-R's driven in competition, or are they for show?

Ryan Douthit May 23rd, 2010 03:28 PM

All different. The "Taming the serpent" GTR was built for show, the Episode 24 car is just a personal toy for the owner (with some drag and circuit weekend fun) and the new feature we're working on the car is a product development mule that also sees a lot of track time.

Its funny, because with very few mods these cars can break 10s in the 1/4 mile which then bans them from running in NHRA events without a full cage. So, lots of owners do low 10s lifting before finishing just so they can continue racing for the day. But, in fact, the cars are very solid in the 9s.

Hey neighbors, I'm just off 405 in Bothell!

Hi Jeff. I think we should all form a corporation. Eastside Video Services!

Adam Gold May 28th, 2010 08:09 PM

Staff meetings every Wednesday at Forecaster's (Red Hook).

Ryan Douthit May 28th, 2010 08:58 PM

I'm afraid any and all the profits would be consumed in liquid form every Wednesday.

Carl Rubin May 29th, 2010 12:34 PM

No problem. We'll just set it up as a non-profit organization, with all proceeds going to our liquid assets.
