Elk Run Tidbits

• Elk Run Productions, in association with Teletrends, Inc., won a bronze Telly Award for a fundraising video produced for the Denver Health Foundation. A nice result for a project with a budget of less than $10,000. Call us to see how we can do the same thing for your organization.
• We' ve recently signed a contract to produce a half hour video program for the University of Wyoming addressing the effects of aging on the brain.
• A football camp for kids with Down Syndrome led by ex-Denver Bronco Ed McCaffrey provided the focus for several stories for use by the Starz Encore channels. Carl took the role of DP for the shoot.
• Acting as DP, Carl recently shot several web vignettes on Colorado's western slope for the national public relations agency Edelman. The Sony F900 CineAlta HDCam was the camera of choice for the shoot.
• Carl's article outlining the challenges faced while working on "Science Storms" is in the latest issue of Student Filmmaker magazine. You can find it at:http://www.studentfilmmakers.com/magazine/SF2010_03_p12.pdf.
• Science Storms has opened to the public. This revolutionary permanent exhibit, aimed at inspiring kids to become interested in the sciences, opened last week at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry. Carl, in concert with Cortina Productions of McLean, VA., acted as DP for acquiring video for the six massive video screens in the exhibit, as well as for some interactive games. The project involved almost forty shoot days in twenty different cities. The exhibit spans 28,000 square feet and cost $34 million to turn the idea into reality.
• Camera and gear rentals are now available and will soon be added to the site. Please contact us for a rental list.
