Haiti Montage

rayko — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 20:28:21 +0000

A week after the devastating earthquake hit Haiti, I was hired to shoot ENG footage for two international networks. This is a montage of personal footage I shot of the aftermath during my spare time, in and around Port au Prince. We were in Haiti for a total of 6 days in which 2 of those days were spent traveling to and from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

Due to the situation on the ground, all the footage was shot in 2 days, under direct sunlight and a great deal of pressure. As demanding as it was, it taught me how to pick shots on the fly, and in “not so perfect” lighting or shooting conditions.

In regards to equipment, we traveled very lightly as security and logistics were our main concerns at that time. Once again the Kessler Pocket Dolly proved to be an essential tool in capturing my images.

Khalid Mohtaseb was hired to shoot ENG footage in Haiti for some international networks after the earthquakes. This is a montage of the footage he captured in his spare time around Port Au Prince… pretty incredible.

Mike Sabo

As young kids our “uncle” Sabo first introduced us to comedy by bringing over toys and then telling us they were for his local orphanage. By the time I was a young aspiring designer, I would spend hours working with Sabo on his various soap identities, brands and packaging and learning about the personal care business in between his rants about politics and the Clintons. We will greatly miss uncle Sabo and infamous laugh.
