Toscana – worth every hour of the flight from LA.

Jared Abrams from Cinema5D stopped by the studio on Tuesday to sit down and chat.  He caught me at an interesting time, as my crew and I were in the midst of packing for our trip to Italy (leaving today!).  We still had time for a good talk though, and he even got me to expound on my love/hate relationship with gear – notice all the gear strewn about in the video – we packed 22 bags for the trip!  The interview is embedded above, and you can read more at Cinema5D.com.  (Sorry for the poor audio quality – apparently they had an issue w/ audio on their end.)

I also had the chance this week to talk over the phone with Scott Bourne – who many of you may already know – for his Photofocus podcast.  I am featured in episode #45, which you can listen to for free by either subscribing to the Photofocus podcast feed – OR – streaming it from iTunes.

Ciao!  I’ll be updating from Rome next.

Well… the only thing better than posting this promo would be for me to actually have it in my hands for the job I’m currently prepping for… I’m leaving for a 2-week job in Italy on Thursday!

If you think no one else out there is more excited about this than you are – you’re wrong… I am!

Details on availability: still slated for summer of 2010 – basic wireless remote for iPhone in the $1,500 range and it goes up or down (wired is cheaper) from there, depending on the configuration.
