I was fortunate enough to direct a shoot for studioCase out of Manhattan, and their client Johnson and Johnson. We had a great time at National Boston studios, who were amazing, and Jesse Hubbell did an outstanding job as our all around grip/lighting expert. While I can’t talk about the content of the shoot, I can say that it looks to be a very interesting product and certainly one that will change they way people think about J&J.
While I’m not able to post any video from the shoot until they launch this spring, I can provide some excellent behind the scenes photos taken by one of our crew, Bartholomew Singer, who was running the teleprompter. I always enjoy a set where everyone is cool, calm, and collected and feels comfortable enough to chime in (from the PA all the way on up). The shoot was seamless, from location, crew, food, hair/makeup, talent, client, everything went well. Enjoy the pictures!

thanks for great plug and kind words. Glad the photos got out to be seen. You are dead on with the shoot, cool, confident, skilled crews make for a good days and reminds us of the joy of doing something we love. It was great to meet and work with all of you. I hope I can do it again. Best. B. Singer
